About this property

Sound of the Sea - a holiday cottage that sleeps 5 guests in 3 bedrooms

Sound of the sea is a newly refurbished 3 bedroom apartment in a lovely location sitting overlooking Port Erin bay, in the south west of the Isle of Man.

Located on the top floor of a quiet building containing two other apartments, Sound of the Sea enjoys panoramic views from its elevated position, across Port Erin bay south to the Calf of Man, and west to Bradda head and the Mourne mountains of Northern Ireland. Look right down at the waves lapping onto the shingle beach at Spaldrick immediately below, and just a couple of minutes walk down the winding path you can get onto the beach itself from the path opposite the apartment.

Port Erin and its main sandy beach is just a 10 minute walk down the promenade. A mecca for watersports enthusiasts, sea swimming, paddleboarding, kayaking, sailing and snorkelling can all be enjoyed, with many of these offered by the various activity providers located by the beach. Bradda Glen and Milners tower, a 19th centurry folly can be accessed by the footpath which starts across the road. The view from the top is well worth the hike!

The apartment itself consists of a Lounge and Dining room at the front of the building with the kitchen and a twin and single room to the rear. The master bedroom is located up a short steep staircase and this room also benefits from an ensuite shower room and views of the bay from the velux roof windows.

4/10 Poor

Very damp place, not great experience

Excellent location but the property itself was very damp. Also wasn't allowed to use heating at normal winter temperature and asked to keep room temperature at 15 degrees C which is not exactly what normal people would have in the middle of winter when there are storms and strong cold winds on the island. We agreed to pay extra to compensate for the winter utility costs so it was a horrible experience hearing from the host that we were anyway asked to keep the temperature down.
