Description
Shee Dy Vea is a beautiful self catering holiday home in a peaceful area overlooking Port Erin bay in the south of the Isle of Man. The property has two double bedrooms, lounge, a family bathroom, a spacious kitchen and a dining room that offers incredible views north over Port Erin beach and the village.
Upstairs a viewing lounge provides further elevation to enjoy panoramic views over the bay, Bradda Head and out to sea. The rear of the property has a private secluded sun terrace. Parking is available just outside the property, which also has a private driveway.
Port Erin itself is easily accessed, a footpath directly opposite the property drops down to the beach, less than 5 minutes walk away. From here enjoy a choice of outdoor activities from a boat trip to the Calf of Man, dinghy sailing, paddleboarding or join the Raad Ny foillan (The Way of the Gull) coastal footpath. For something more relaxed there are a number of bars, restaurants and cafes in the area.
The Steam Railway station is also just 5 minutes walk from the property. Take the train through to Douglas or stop off at many of the towns and villages along the way.

Nostalgic Break
A good few days in one of our favourite places. A comfortable property with excellent views across the bay. The cottage is well equipped but in need of some tlc. E.g. two dining room chairs needing repair, back door extremely difficult to open, floor boards in hall and on decking at rear of property.Cleanliness

Fantastic stay
Our stay at shee Dy Vea was outstanding. The house is perfectly located with excellent facilities. Essentials in the fridge and even proper coffee bags to enjoy on arrival. The views are stunning and there is plenty of parking space. I cannot recommend this place enough, I will be staying again!Cleanliness

A great place to stay!
This is the second time my friend and I have stayed at this property and, yet again, we were not disappointed. The bungalow stands on the side of a cliff in a quiet residential area and so close to all the amenities Port Erin has to offer. A short walk down the cliff takes you to the promenade but bear in mind that the way back up will take you a little longer! Port Erin is well connected by a frequent bus service to Douglas, Castletown, Port St. Mary and the Calf of Man so you can explore without having to drive. The steam train will also take you to Douglas but does not run so frequently. The accommodation has all you require for a lovely relaxing holiday in homely surroundings, Our favourite room is the observation lounge, an inspired addition to an older but well modernised property, which offers a fantastic view across the bay and out to sea. We are already planning our next visit!Cleanliness

The perfect little getaway with the most stunning views!
Shee Dy Vea was incredible to say the least! The house itself was fantastic and cosy, yet modern and homely. We loved the kitchen and our baby girl climbed her first ever flight of stairs there, which was special! The views were spectacular; waking up to that view every morning and being able to watch the sun set from every window at the front of the house was something special. We usually make the most of being somewhere different from home, and try to get out of the house and explore the area as much as possible, but this was the first time we actually just stayed inside the property and enjoyed the house! We will definitely be back! Thank you so much!Cleanliness

Beautiful views, comfortable, well equipped bungalow.
We found Shee Dy Vea to be a very comfortable, home from home. The kitchen/ dining area is very well laid out and has lovely views across the bay. Island Escapes were very helpful to assist with booking and leave a very useful welcome pack. The bungalow is situated up a hill but very near to the town centre and all amenities, so this was not a problem at all.Would certainly stay here again.Cleanliness

Wonderful views!
On the positive side the location couldn't be bettered - the short cut down to the Bay Hotel and town very welcome - glorious views over the sea, beach and Milner's Tower. Substantial welcome pack. Very comfortable bed. Wonderful kitchen and viewing floor. On the negative side, very sketchy wi-fi - had to switch booster off and on several times a day, loo in bathroom needs attention but above all the step from the kitchen to the hall is deadly! Despite overhead sign tripped up several times before crashing face down and badly bruising both knees. Nasty shock and still painful. Despite this struggled up and down path daily and enjoyed our stay.Cleanliness

Stunning views
A nice property with stunning views over Port Erin bay. We spent most of our time in the dining room as it was very comfortable and made the most of the lovely view. Only a short walk down to the sea or the village and a slightly longer walk up to Bradda Head and Milners tower. A perfect location. One small downside was that the next door property is having an extension built so the scaffolding partially hides the view and it was quite noisy at times, we also had workmen on scaffolding peering down through the roof lights in the kitchen. Im sure this wont be a problem for long though.Cleanliness

Staycation 2020
Stayed here for 3 nights in November after the English travel ban scuppered out foreigh holiday plans. Its a lovely house with superb views over the beach and Bradda Head. Within walking distance to several restaurants and cafes and 5mins quick path to the beach/promenade. Very modern inside but still retains its original charm. Highly recommended.Cleanliness

Home from Home
Magnificent setting with superb views across the bay and headlands. Welcoming aspect confirmed once inside. Homely feel to each room with spacious well laid out kitchen. Every room well kept and comfortable. Favourite has to be the upstairs room - warmed by the sun and with panoramic views that would be hard to match. A definite home from home and we would love to stay again.Cleanliness

Staycation at other end of island
We know Port Erin well, so no suprises, but enjoyed our short break.. Weather was disappointing, twice we found ourselves saying we would have to come back in summer ! But it was mid July. Everything we needed at property the only downside for us was the step down into the kitchen, which my wife forgot about in middle of the night and went flying. In her seventies so not a great thing to happen, We solved by shutting kitchen door when we went to bed. Welcome pack appreciated, thank you Island Escapes, who changed original dates due to COVID with no problems... Great customer serviceCleanliness

Felt like both a holiday and a home
Stayed here for 3 nights on our staycation. The views are something else! 2 double bedrooms were comfy and the shower was the best ever. Impressive kitchen with everything we needed. Only comments would be there didn't seem to be any table mats anywhere? Very homely, tempted to come back.Cleanliness

Just loved it
Some lovely touches that I was not expecting, e.g. bread, milk, butter, coffee, teabags, biscuits, sweets. Place was great location and have asked Island Escapes if it is free for the August bank holiday. One tiny little thing was it would have been good to have some shower gel - couple of people assumed there would be some. Definitely recommend this to others. Just lovelyCleanliness
