2 Bedroom Cottage in Castletown

Packet House is one of a collection of refurbished listed buildings in an historic area of Castletown in the south of the Isle of Man. Formerly the headquarters of the Isle of Man Steam Packet Company, the oldest continually operating passenger shipping company in the world. Castletown itself is full of history and the home of a number of Manx National Heritage sites.
Packet House has been lovingly refurbished to a very high standard, with 2 double bedrooms (plus a separate infant nursery) and a comfortable open plan lounge and dining area.
Sit and enjoy the fantastic views over the harbour and across to Castletown bay from the protruding viewing gallery, part of the large open plan living area. Next door is Ellan Vannin, which sleeps 6 so could be booked together for a larger group.
Castletown is a great base for a holiday, just 5 minutes from the airport and with a wide range of bars, restaurants and cafes close by. The historic Steam Railway runs through the town connecting it with the islands capital, Douglas and the seaside villages of Port Erin and Port St Mary.

Summary: The house was nice clean and well appointed. We had a nice sea view and the unit is well located in Castletown. Everything worked well for the exception of the Nespresso machine. They came to look at it and said it worked fine.. But found water leaked out from the machine somewhere. Besides that the it was a great place to stay.

Summary: We had a lovely, short staycation at Packet House. The property is very well furnished, comfortable and homely, very much ‘home from home’. The views from the bay window are beautiful. It’s ideally located in Castletown, a short walk from the shops, pubs and restaurants in town etc. There are some stunning walks in the area which is a great bonus.

Summary: This was our second stay in Packet House and it is without doubt our favourite ‘staycation’ house’. Everything in the house is finished to a very high standard, very comfortable beds with beautiful high quality bed linen, well equipped shower rooms with underfloor heating. The top floor is the icing on the cake, the views are just spectacular from dining area in the large bay window, looking across to Langness and out to sea one way and up the harbour towards the hills the other way. We made good use of the cosy log burner on the nights we were in, also the extremely well equipped kitchen which has everything you could need. Very convenient for all the pubs and restaurants both in Castletown and, a short bus ride away, Port St Mary and Port Erin. Fabulous walks from the front door. Highly recommended.

Summary: Another wonderful two weeks spent in Packet House. Most comfortable accommodation, with high-end appliances and furnishings. The views over the harbour are the icing on the cake! Next year’s stay here is already booked - that says it all!

Summary: This property is excellent for two couples being able to have our own bathrooms. You would need to be fit as the living part in this accommodation is on the third floor, an advantage to see the harbour and the wonderful view. The only downfall is the sofa is quite low and very uncomfortable and the WiFi faded out, no good to watch catch up TV.

Summary: Beautifully furnished house in a great location. Waking up to the sun rising over the harbour is priceless. Parking nearby and easy road access to the whole island. Short walk to the train as well. Good food in the town.

Summary: Very smart and comfortable apartment, with great views from the top-floor living room bay window. Perfect accommodation for two couples - provided you are OK with the steep and narrow staircases, since the apartment is on 3 levels.
