About

Driftwood Cottage, dating back to the 18th century, is a traditional Manx cottage nestling in a quiet pedestrianised lane in the heart of Peel’s conservation area.  

Many of the original features of the cottage remain and blend in well with the modern facilities which have been introduced.
On the ground floor the lounge, with stone fireplace and wooden sash windows, is comfortably furnished and a 42” Freeview TV and radio are provided.

A modern, fully equipped kitchen with fridge, freezer, microwave, oven and hob is open to the lounge.  A separate utility room with washing machine, tumble drier and gas boiler providing instant hot water and heating complete the ground floor.

Comfortable, safe stairs provide access to the upper floors where there are 2 bedrooms (one king size and one twin) with a modern shower room and toilet on the first floor.  All bedding and towels (including beach towels) are provided and are of the highest quality.

Driftwood Cottage is only a stone’s throw from pubs, restaurants, marina, beach, ancient castle and working harbour where the local fishing boats can be seen unloading their daily catch as seals await the chance of a snack.  Wander round the back of the castle to sit and witness the glorious sunset for which Peel is famous or follow one of the many coastal footpaths which boast spectacular views. 

A bus stop is nearby and gives the opportunity to explore island wide, Peel being the ideal location as your base.  The world famous TT course is only 4 miles away.  Ample parking can be found very close by. 

The owners are a local couple who really want you to enjoy your stay and are only a phone call away should you require assistance.

A welcome pack awaits you on arrival.

Dogs can stay in certain circumstances - please contact owner to discuss.
