‘Thing’. Just a non-descript word, right? Think again…

‘Before our Parliaments, before our High Courts, there were Things’. The word ‘Thing’ comes from the old Norse for ‘assembly’ – þing – an early system of justice and administration, established by the Vikings and early Norse settlers in Norway, Iceland, the Faroe Islands, Shetland, Orkney, the Scottish Highlands, and the Isle of Man.

Situated far away from the UK’s large cities, the Isle of Man is well known within the astronomy community as a great location for dark skies. From the amateur to the expert, when clear skies permit, it is a stargazing spectacle for everyone.

For a totally unique holiday home experience why not experience life on a working farm for your holiday? With all the comforts of a modern holiday cottage but away from the hussle and bussle of everyday life.
