Description
Mariners House provides everything you could want from a family holiday home by the sea. The property has been recently refurbished with great care throughout and provides ample room for a group of six looking to enjoy a break on the Isle of Man.The house contains a spacious open plan lounge and dining area, with well equipped kitchen adjoining. Or sit and enjoy an evening drink in the outside seating area. Upstairs you'll find a master bedroom and ensuite, complete with king size bed, a further king size double room and a twin room. A separate shower room provides enough facilities for a large group. The property is very much family friendly and comes equipped with a range of games, from board games through to rounders!
Laxey beach is a firm favourite with locals and visitors alike, from the two front double bedrooms you can look out and watch the kayakers, paddleboarders and sea swimmers take to the water in the summer months, and in the winter simply enjoy watching the waves roll in! Just a couple of minutes walk from the doorstep at the end of Laxey Promenade is The Shed – rapidly establishing itself as one of the go-to destinations on the Island for coffee and cakes, with comfy outdoor seating and plenty of throws and blankets to keep any chill away!

A great time
We had a wonderful weekend at this property. The house is spotless, warm and was very well equipped. My only gripe was that a more detailed inventory would be have handy, for example there was a Nespresso machine in the kitchen but no mention of it anywhere and I wouldn't have taken mine if I knew.Cleanliness

Beautiful and cosy in perfect location ??
We arrived late in the evening and was greeted by the smell of a nice clean and newly decorated house. There was tea coffe bread, milk and butter for our first breakfast, how wonderful. The bed and bathrooms are tastefully decorated and have everything you need as does the rest of the house. We have had a wonderful stay, the weather has been absolutely gorgeous. The sea is just outside the property and we have taken full advantage we highly recommend this home from home holiday let. 5***** from Lone and Nick plus two very happy Bull Terriers.

Beautiful House, Fabulous Location
This is our second visit to Mariner's house. This house has been designed to a beautiful standard with lots of attention to detail. The kitchen facilities provide you with everything you need to cook meals for the family. The house is warm and cozy. The beach is literally across the road, and our dogs loved their daily walks. You have within a short walk two beach cafes, a pub, and an Italian restaurant. The house has a small enclosed courtyard which is perfect for the dogs with a very nice seating area which is a sun trap in the afternoon / early evening. The owners of the property have thought of everything from dog towels and dog toys, to a basket of toys for children, and cupboards full of board games and books. On arrival, we had all the essentials provided for us which made our stay even easier. We would highly recommend this property.Cleanliness

What a lovely house, so close to the beach, our dog loved it. Mona Lisa Italian restaurant is just s short walk as is Shore Hotel. Both super. No shops in walking distance. This didn't worry us at all. Basin in top floor bathroom and bathriom off 1st floor landing were tiny. Too small to wash your face. Otherwise all excellent. Highly recommend.

Delightful property and location
We had every high class comfort on the inside of the cottage and all the amenities we needed on the outside for us and our 2 dogs. We totally recommend this property. Our only drop on the stars was a degree of nervousness about no blinds at the bathroom windows when the neighbours behind could see in every time they walked past. Also the WiFi and tv dropped out on a regular basis. Not a game changer but frustrating at times.Cleanliness

Nice property
Lovely property in a good spot in Laxey although it is overlooked at the back (yard isnt very big either) and a house in front of it. Only parking for 1 car right outside the property and a bit tight as on the street, plenty of parking over on the seafront through. As with another property I recently staying in with island escapes there are no curtains just blinds so would recommend bringing eye cover for sleep! Nice size lounge WiFi was a bit dodgy whilst I was there, kitchen a little on small side for the size of the house but still good enough, master bedroom and bathroom were gorgeous. No telly in bedroom as per another property I stayed in through island escapes not sure if this is just through all their properties but did miss having telly in bed! All in all a nice place in a good location but it is about 20/30 min walk to the closest shop.Cleanliness

Mariner's House Laxey
This house has been beautifully modernized and furnished. Everything is beautiful with quality furnishings, kitchen equipment and bathroom toiletries. It is in a great location for Laxey Beach. Its just a shame that there is a house blocking the view from the sitting room. My only niggle is that I had to pay extra for a cot and high chair on top of what was already a steep nightly rate. £10 to hire a high chair that only cost £15 in the first place feels like overcharging.Cleanliness

Great base for a family holiday
We had a staycation for 3 nights as a family of 4. The house is really nicely decorated and very clean - everyone was really impressed on arrival. It has everything you could want and lots of extra touches like toys, beach toys and books for the kids. It's a stone's throw from the beach (a 7 second timed sprint by a 6 year old) and we went every day. There is a little grassy village green and a play park right by the house. Great cafes, a pub and a family friendly Italian restaurant a very short walk away. There is loads to do in the area - it would be a fantastic base for a family holiday in the Isle of Man. We asked our kids for their rating and they have both given it 5 out of 5!Cleanliness

Perfect property for our family staycation
Mariner's House was an ideal property for us to take our daughter and grandchildren on a staycation this summer. The house is very comfortable and well equipped - with extra thought given to needs of our daughter's dog too! The position just off the seafront is ideal and walks on the beach before breakfast and before bed were just what was needed. We were also well placed to walk eastern sections of the Raad ny Foillan (Coastal Footpath). We have already recommended Mariner's House to relatives that hope to visit next year and would have no hesitation in recommending further. We'd love to return sometime too!Cleanliness

Laxey Gem - couldnt recommend enough
Our expectations were surpassed the minute we walked in. The ambience is relaxing and you really do feel like you are on a beach holiday. The property is so beautifully decorated and spacious, ideal for a family break and entertaining. The location is just perfect, right by the beach and close to all Laxey has to offer including the ice cream parlour - warning to the dieters! The little additional touches made us feel right at home and so welcomed. Even our furry friend had a special basket filled with treats and handy bits. The house has everything you could possibly need and want for an enjoyable and relaxing break. The beds were super comfy and we loved falling asleep to the sound of the waves and waking up to the views of the beach from our rooms. We could not recommend enough and will definitely be back. Our only regret is that we didnt stay longer!Cleanliness

Mariner's House is ideally located on the prom in Laxey and has stunning views from it's upper floors of the beach and out to sea. It is brilliantly equipped and all fixtures, fittings and furnishings are of a high standard. We loved the extra touches of beach items if you have children and games etc for wet days.

We loved our stay at Mariners House, the place is beautiful and has everything you need for the perfect stay. Location is great (right on the beach) which meant we were able to take advantage of lots of lovely walks, plus a meal in La Mona Lisa round the corner. The kitchen is equipped with everything you could possibly need to cook breakfast lunch and tea, and the milk, cheese, butter, tea, coffee etc. were really appreciated. Cosy lounge, comfy beds, lovely en suite with big bath, and we loved the 'nook' at the top of the house - perfect for reading a book or watching the waves.

We loved our stay here. It was great being so close to the sea but still in a quiet location. Right next to the Shed and Laxey Beach Cafe which we took advantage of! Also ate in Mona Lisa and the Laxey Glen which were both delicious. Had the windows open every night so I could hear the waves. Very modern with Alexa in most rooms! Only downside was the tiny sinks in 2 of the toilet rooms but not much to do about that due to the space. We would love to come back and it already feels like a second home!Cleanliness
