Cronkbane Cottages - Glen Helen Cottage

Fully equipped, self-catering cottage. Consisting of a fully equipped Kitchen/Diner, Double Bedroom, Living Room and WC/Shower room. Designed for a couple, but a sofa bed in the lounge area does give some flexibility. i.e. Couple with a child, two single people, or possibly two couples. On site parking. Located on the World Famous Isle of Man TT Mountain Race Course. Wonderful views over the South of the Island and Scotland. 4.5 Miles from the City of Peel and 4 miles from Kirk Michael. The location makes this accommodation unique. Out in the Isle of Man country-side, with fabulous views over the North of the Island and, on clear days, views of Scotland. Quiet and tranquil most of the time, but right in the mix during the racing period of the Isle of Man TT and the Manx festival of Motor Cycling.. The Cottage is Dog Friendly and there is a large, fully fenced and gated field on the property for dog walking / playing / socialising and so on. There are various lawned areas and some woodland. Please be aware of the following: There is no gate on the main entrance, as it is the TT track. There may be other dogs on site The cottages are surrounded by farm land & fields ... thus livestock. Please pick up and bag on all areas of cut grass. The Accommodation is set up for a couple, but with the sofa bed, could accommodate two single people, a family of three, or even two couples ... but this would be a tight squeeze. A fully equipped self-catering cottage, in 5 acres of land. Roam as you feel you want to. There are other buildings on site … the Main farm House and other cottages which are, of course, private to other guest and owner. Adequate on site parking. I live on site, in the Main Farm House. I do enjoy socialising but also appreciate that sometimes guests like to have time and space to themselves. Out in the country-side, just off the end of the Cronk-y-Voddy Straight, on the TT Track's 11th Milestone. Outside of bike racing periods, very quiet and tranquil. There are other cottages on the property, so you may have neighbour’s of your own. There is on-site parking for guests, but really for cars and bikes only, as the car park is not overly large. I am on a regular bus route, but the buses are not very frequent and not at all on Bank Holidays and Sundays. A taxi into Peel will cost £12 -£15 each way. Once in Peel, you are on the main bus routes and can get round the Island reasonably well. Although not essential, I would recommend having your own transport whilst here … rentals of cars and bikes is available. It is a £12 - £15 taxi ride to the nearest pub / supermarket etc. We are on a regular bus route, but there are not many services past the cottages and none at all on Bank Holidays or Sundays. The coastal City of Peel is about 5 miles away and has everything you may need … including a medieval castle, swimming pool, a lovely beach and harbour and a highly recommended Vikings Museum.
