Beautiful house!

Quilliam's Lodge was perfect for our family stay on the island. Lynn, the owner, was very kind, helpful and responsive to our messages. The house itself is immaculate and has everything you could possibly need for a wonderful stay. The owner has thought of everything to make your dog's holiday perfect too! The most luxurious bed our dog has ever slept in for sure!

Fabulous Easter break

As a group of 6 adults we stayed over the Easter bank holiday weekend. Quilliams Lodge far exceeded our expectations. It was well equipped including a generous welcome basket. The space was large and more than comfortable for a large group. The cottage was spotlessly clean. The owner Lynn met us on arrival and couldn't have been more helpful and welcoming. Would not hesitate to recommend and already planning our next trip!

Absolutely fantastic!

We had the most wonderful New Year stay. Couldn't have asked for more, all the little extras were really appreciated. The property is fantastic with great attention given to detail, and we wanted for nothing. Rooms are beautifully decorated and furnished, with plenty of space to accommodate the six adults in our party. Fully equipped kitchen and use of laundry room. Our host Lynn was so kind and helpful when our travel plans were disrupted due to weather, and we received a very warm welcome. We couldn't recommend this property highly enough. Anyone who stays here is very lucky and will have the best time. We are already looking at staying again next year. A*++

Fantastic property - dream home from home!

We had a fantastic stay at Quilliams lodge. The property is first class - clean, tidy, beautifully designed and the attention to detail is apparent throughout. The host was exceptionally helpful and warming. The welcome pack on arrival was excellent and just what we needed after an afternoon flight as it saved us a trip into town. The property is well located - only 5/10 mins into town. The facilities are excellent with great parking and secure gates at the property. There is lots of space in this property and all rooms were well laid out and stocked with everything needed for a self catering stay. The host has thought of every detail and has gone above and beyond to ensure the property meets all expectations. There was lots of room for our party of 7 (incl 3 kids). Hot tub was delightful and the icing on the cake for our stay. I would definitely recommend this property and hope to stay here again soon.

The best staycation!! ??

Could not recommend Qulliam’s Lodge anymore! Myself, My partner and little dog stayed here whilst our house was getting some work done on it. It is the most beautiful home, away from home in such a lovely area with lots of scenic fields to walk our dog. The house was absolutely stunning, so homely and had everything you could ever need or want. Lynn was incredible, and could not have been any more helpful & generous to us during our stay! There was a lovely welcome basket on arrival, with lots of yummy treats & essentials, Lynn didn’t even forget our dog, there was some treats and a ball for him which he went mad for! We can’t wait for our next staycation at Quilliam’s Lodge, it can’t come soon enough :)

Quilliams Lodge - Oct 23

If Carlsberg did the perfect stay then this would be it. Lynn the owner could not have been more helpfull. She kept us updated with her comms. The welcome pack of food/milk,sausages, bread, cheese, to name a few, was a really thoughtfull and kind gesture. The dogs where also left treats. It was a great start to our stay. The pictres of the cottage do not do it justice. Its simply stunning. No expense has been spared. The hot tub was huge, lovely and warm and monitored daily. The property is spacious with 6 people staying comfortablly . Its location is central and secluded. The wifi was super quick with no issues. The cottage had everything you would need and more. Its a home from home. If you are thinking of visiting the iom ....then look no further. You wont be disappointed....

Absolutely stunning property.

We are working on the Isle of Man and staying at various properties, this is the first time we have stayed at Quilliam's Lodge. The property itself has been fitted out fantastically and the place is big, comfortable & private. Value for money, the Host ( Lynn ) is very friendly and welcoming. I would highly recommend staying here it is fantastic.

Absolutely above and beyond

We had a wild time, the place was gorgeous, pictures cannot do the space available justice, the welcome basket was generous and well selected, the rooms were all massive and beautifully lit - everything was just so warm, welcoming and beautiful it was more than we even hoped for. The host, Lynn, couldn't do enough for us, she was thoughtful and engaged with us the whole time, genuinely committed to us having a great experience, which we absolutely did! 100% will stay again and can't wait for Lynn's other places to be opened :)

A fabulous find!

Quilliam's Lodge is a beautiful, spacious property set in a lovely, tranquil, rural location. The house is recently fully refurbished to a very high standard with huge attention to detail and lots of thoughtful extras which really added to a great, luxurious experience. Lynn, the owner, was extremely welcoming and helpful - she provided the best Welcome Hamper we've ever had, including lots of treats for adults, children and dogs alike. The hot tub, which is cleaned before each new arrival, was a real treat to enjoy after a long day. Dogs are very welcome and can be kept safe in the enclosed garden. We will definitely be back!!

Wonderful luxury home from home accommodation.

We had a truly wonderful stay at Quilliams Lodge. Lynn is a lovely host who was really helpful and friendly, without being overly intrusive. The lodge is situated in a secluded countryside spot with stunning scenery, yet it is less than a 10 minute drive to Douglas. Quilliams Lodge has literally everything that you could want for. Great care has been taken to ensure that guests have an enjoyable and comfortable stay. The Lodge was spotlessly clean as was the huge hot tub, that was freshly cleaned for our arrival. We were even treated to a welcome basket, which was an unexpected and thoughtful touch. We did not want to leave and will most definitely return again. Highly recommended.

Quilliams Lodge stay, July 2023

A stunning holiday home in a peaceful location with beautiful views over the Manx countryside to South Barrule and the sea. The lodge is roomy, luxurious and very comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there. The owner, Lynn was welcoming and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. A generous welcome basket meant we did not have to rush out to shop straight away and could relax after our journey. Truly dog friendly with treats, towels and a pet bed provided for our canine companion.The hot tub was regularly monitored and kept scrupulously clean, we really appreciated it after our walking adventures. An Ideal base for exploring the island, highly recommended.
