Elgin Retreat
Managed by Island Escapes
Local to Elgin Retreat, you can explore the country lanes and two beautiful beaches on foot, the perfect way to take in this part of the island. There is also The Venture Centre just up the road, an outdoor activity centre offering many activities including kayaking, archery and coasteering. If you prefer to stick around there's still plenty to do - guests can enjoy use of an outdoor firepit, BBQ area, small bar area, sun terrace and the outdoor sauna.
A couple of minutes walk away is a stop on the Manx Electric Railway which you can take into the town of Ramsey, or head down the coast to Laxey and Douglas. You can also hop aboard the Snaefell Mountain Railway from Laxey and experience the Isle of Man from its tallest peak!
Elgin Retreat consists of one bedroom which can be made up as a super king or two singles, as well as a large lounge with a sofa bed available to use at an additional cost on request, giving you full flexibility to enjoy your stay. There's also a bathroom and a kitchen which also has an oven, hob, fridge, freezer, microwave, washing machine, kettle and toaster.
Plenty of off-road parking, private patio, woodland garden, use of two other patio areas and a large lawn for you to explore and enjoy.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Elgin Retreat and will visit again.
mr Woodhams
My wife and I had a fantastic relaxing holiday.
The surroundings were very quiet, the hot tub was great every day, there is a sauna, although we didn't use it and the facilities are of a very high standard and a very large comfortable bed
Lara and Adrian are very friendly and helpful hosts and the scones and other goodies were very nice
It's a perfect location for an Isle of Man holiday.
Mrs Craddock
We have just returned from another wonderful break at Elgin. This really is a very special place set in the most beautiful & peaceful surroundings made all the better by Lara & Adrian's hospitality which leave you wanting for nothing and feeling instantly relaxed and at home!
You can look forward to special touches such as fresh flowers from the garden and Lara's legendary home made scones and there is always a new creation of some kind either in the garden or cottage from the talented Adrian who has the enviable ability to create something out of almost anything!
Ramsey is just 3 stops away by electric tram (the Lewaigue stop being a 2 minute walk from the cottage), or 5 minutes by car. Super handy if you need supplies or you want to enjoy a little trip on the tram and do a bit of shopping. Pure Inspirations is a wonderful shop full to the brim of all kinds of lovely things for gifts or a little something to remember your trip and The Fynoderee Distillery is a great little place to enjoy a drink while you wait for the tram back.
What better way is there to end the day than to have a chilled glass of wine whilst relaxing in the hot tub - just perfect! :-)
Mrs Tasker
A very warm welcome from the owner and a delightful welcome pack, including freshly baked scones. The property was nicely decorated with is own private patio, there is also another seating area adjacent to the hot tub and sauna and next to that a bbq area and small bar. The grounds are beautiful and the owners encourage you to make use of the gardens. The beach is a 10 min walk down the road. This property is a welcome respite from a busy world, quiet and secluded.
