Family holiday

Booked the holiday for my parents who are in their 90's and have mobility needs. We found the apartment ideal for their needs and it was very comfortable and warm. We found the spa facilities good and the owner very helpful. We did find the drive way directly infront of the apartment a little difficult to negotiate with a walker but otherwise the apartment was excellent and we would recommend it.

Perfect spot for visiting family in Peel.

Excellent accommodation especially as we needed a mobility friendly space for my 91 yr old Mam. Very clean, well equipped and lots of clean ares for parking and access. The gym, sauna, jacuzzi and steam room included in the price made it value for money stay. Will definitely be back.

Truly accessible property

We had a good stay. The positives- secluded quiet spot, but only 2 miles to Peel. Good directions, easy to find. The not so good bits.. if there were 6 it may be quite noisy, as it has all lovely hardwood floors, but they were a bit echoey.. there wasn’t enough seating in the living room for 6, you could seat 4 with a couple on dining chairs. Not enough pans for cooking (1 pan really?) luckily we had read reviews and bought one with us. David the host was lovely and helpful but not intrusive. The sauna, gym and hot tub were a nice touch.

Family half term break

The house was well equipped and very clean. The downstairs accessiblity was perfect for some of our family group as a lot of thought had gone into the design of this part of the house. Access to the house for a car to drop off those who couldn’t walk far was quite tight but doable with care. The gym and spa areas were a nice added touch and the owner took his time explaining everything before we used it which was really helpful. This location is good for reaching all parts of the island the roads being quiet and well signposted. Altogether a great all round holiday.

Great stay at the Fuschias

We had a lovely time at the Fuschias, clean & comfortable and use of the spa when the weather was bad. Very handy for Peel. The only thing wrong was I struggled to cook for 4 people as there was only one saucepan, a tiny frying pan, a smalll casserole dish with no lid and a few smaller cooking dishes. Plenty of mugs, plates and cutlery and everything else though. Apart from that it was an excellent week.

Great place to stay

We stayed with our 89yr old father and the Fushias was perfect. Although he did find the wet room a challenge to shower in. The floor was slippy after use. A mat or stand board may have helped him. Everything else was great. Location was ideal as no where on the island was to far to travel to. We had a lovely break and would recommend and go again

Lovely location, comfy beds but beware of noise from adjoining houses!

A comfortable stay in the lovely north of the island. Very close to Peel and St John‘s, with easy access to Douglas and the ferry. House was well appointed, with good size bedrooms and comfy beds. A good accessible room was provided and well equipped kitchen. Living room is not over large and the dining table is difficult to fit more than 3/4 around without pulling into the living room. One thing to be aware of is the noise level in the upstairs bedroom when the apartment next door is used. Without any undue behaviour, voices and music/furniture movement carries straight through.

Nice stay

A very clean, comfortable and pleasant premises and stay. Island Escapes did everything that was necessary. However, as an amputee with only one leg, I found the three legged bathroom stool unstable, and easily tipped when reaching to one side. A four legged seat, whether stool or chair, would be safer.

Family long weekend

We had a wonderful stay at The Fushias and The Hawthorns. We were there with family (9 of us) and having two cottages worked really well. The cottages are well equipped and spacious.

Great facilities and overall experience

The upstairs bedrooms of this cottage are particularly pretty. We loved the overall facilities and location and was great for the purposes of our retreat, we look forward to booking again. Unfortuntley there was also a problem with the jacuzzi only working at half capacity which did effect some of the guests wanting to socialise together as we had a booking for all three cottages. However booking all three of the cottages and having the spa facilities and outdoor space was a great experience.

Wonderful accommodation especially for a large group

We booked all 3 accommodations as we were staying with relatives. It was great to be able to open up the interconnecting doors so that we could use it as one house when needed and close them off when we didn’t. The accommodation was spotless and well equipped. The added bonus of the gym was also great. Would definitely stay again!

Great family gathering

We booked Fuchsia and Swallow together, two great interlinked properties for this big family gathering. The properties are in a lovely peaceful location and are very spacious and comfortable. There is a great gym with sauna and hot tub which we used a lot. We also really enjoyed playing table tennis outside. If you're intending to cook for large groups though take your own pans and large bowls etc. as although the kitchens are lovely and spacious they have a real shortage of decent sized cooking utensils. Overall a great trip and we were blessed with beautiful weather.

Perfect staycation

We stayed at Ballacallin Court over the Christmas break for 5 days and occupied all 3 cottages which was perfect for our family break. As the cottages all have interleading doors, the set-up was absolutely perfect. The cottages are very well equipped, modern and comfortable, the gym & spa facility is an added bonus. The view from the cottages is beautiful and instantly relaxing. The service we receive from Island Escapes as well as the on-site owners was amazing. The little touches such as bread, milk, cheese and butter in the cottage kitchens was really lovely. We had a wonderful time at Ballacallin and I would highly recommend booking a stay there :)

Fabulous Staycation!

What a wonderful time we had at Ballacallin Court! The properties are beautiful and just perfect for a group of ladies who wanted to 'get away from it all'. Fabulous location, spotless and roomy accommodation - just what we wanted for my 50th celebrations! Highly recommended : )
