1 Charles Street - a holiday cottage that sleeps 3 guests in 2 bedrooms

1 Charles Street is the perfect base to explore Peel in the west of the Isle of Man. This small cottage will comfortably sleep 3 people in 2 bedrooms, it also features an en-suite shower room for the master bedroom and a separate shower room for the single room.

Enjoying stunning sunsets Peel is locally known as the sunset city, and boasts the Isle of Man's only cathedral. A working fishing port, in Peel you can still see Kippers, fish that has been split from tail to head and smoked being cured in the traditional manner at Moores Kipper Yard. In addition to Peel Castle, the House of Manannan provides a fascinating insight into the history of the Isle of Man, from the Viking past to exploring 19th century Peel with a walk around the sailmakers loft, chandlers shop, quayside, complete with sights and smells from the Manx kipper yard, and uncover the importance of the sea to the lives of the people on the Isle of Man.

Charles Street itself is known for being one of the most picturesque streets in Peel. The houses are mostly Peel Sandstone and the traditional street lights give it a really original feel. And whilst you cannot drive to the door of the property, there is plenty of on street parking nearby, and for loading and unloading luggage you can pull a car up close by.

Lovely cottage and great value for money. The people staying loved the quirkiness of the cottage, and loved all the hidden cupboards!

Lovely cottage
We have had a lovely stay at the cottage. It is well equipped with everything you need for your stay. Unfortunately there is an overwhelming smell of damp downstairs which does fade when the heat has been on for a few days but the problem does need to be addressed. I would have been disappointed if it was sunny and I wanted to use the back yard as it was full of scaffolding.

Peel September 2023
Generally a comfortable property tucked away about 50 yards from the seafront. Very handy for exploring Peel. Master bedroom is a bit tight getting round the foot of the bed - removing the tv would help! The properties round in the street are generally unloved but inside you basically have all you need for a self-catering stay. Peel beach, castle and museums are excellent. Peel Hill well worth the climb. Creek Inn and The Boatyard good for dining.

Lovely historic cottage in a brilliant location
1 Charles Street West a perfect place for a four night trip to Peel. The house is warm, cosy and very well equipped. It is a small cottage (especially with a baby that's just learnt to walk!) so bear that in mind if you're considering a longer stay, but for a small group and a short stay it was ideal. Be prepared to park a short (3 min) walk away but loading/unloading is easy if you're organised as you can pull over in Market St, around the corner. You're really in the heart of Peel, which is lovely, and in a great place to explore the island. We will be back! Highly recommend, and Island Escapes were fab.

Lovely cottage in a great location
The cottage is very well-presented and in a great location, close to the seafront and all the local amenities. Only negatives are minor and due to the property being small: a) It is difficult to get to the en-suite in the main bedroom without narrowly avoiding a collision with the TV because the space between wall and bed is so narrow. b) Both bathrooms are wet-rooms, so you get your feet wet if you decide to use the toilet/sink within a couple of hours of having a shower. c) There is no bath in the house.

A lovely stay in Peel
My boyfriend and I loved our stay in Peel. Charles Street was in a great location, a minute walk from the beach and not even 5 minutes to Peel Castle. There are plenty of lovely pubs and restaurants nearby as well as shops such as Coop and ShopRite. Parking isn't directly outside but we found it easy to get somewhere close-by and even if we had to walk a couple of minutes, this was no issue. Charles Street itself was brilliant with everything we needed. The main bedroom is a little tight for space, especially getting into the ensuite but that can't really be helped as they are smaller houses and the double bed can't go any other way! Ideal place for family. There was only the two of us but it was originally meant to be three but there's plenty of room for 4+ people. It was peaceful at night & we felt safe walking around late at night. Locals were friendly. I'd recommend 1 Charles Street & Peel to anybody and I'd love to come back again.

Mostly good
The cottage was clean and comfortable in a very quaint street close to shops, eateries, buses and beach. It was nicely presented and decorated. The pint of milk and other goodies left were very welcome. On the downside one of the shower's drain was blocked and it was unusable. There needed to be more mugs and bowls to maximise loads for the dishwasher. The front door key was very temperamental and it would have proved difficult to escape in the event of a fire. I reported the shower and the lock to Island Escapes. Someone did come out but solved neither problem. Otherwise a lovely holiday.

On balance, not a great choice
The lounge/diner was very well provisioned and comfortable. The kitchen had everything you need for a comfortable stay; however, there were several damp patches which make me wonder how an asthmatic might cope. The very small back yard was unusable due to rubbish strewn about and two young gulls in residence. Upstairs the double bedroom had good storage space but the foot of the double bed was very close to the wall (about a foot clearance), with the television hung overhead the space; this made it difficult to get past to the en suite bathroom. Perhaps the bed could be turned round to make better use of the space? We didn't use the second bedroom. The two bathrooms both had showers that drained into the floor and both took a long time to drain completely; one was walking through water and soapsuds whilst drying oneself. My wife even decided that she would wipe down the floors with cloths to clear suds away. There was a mop and bucket but nowhere to dry the mop. Two loaves of bread and some butter were left for us, but two loaves was too much. On balance, despite some excellent points there were too many downsides to make us consider booking this cottage again or recommending it to our friends

1 Charles Street Peel weekend June 2024
First time staying at this property.very quiet location.less than 2 minutes walk to the promenade in Peel.Nice welcoming pack with Manx butter, cheese,and freshly baked bread.rooms decent size,and same for the bathrooms.only one minor issue though.the front bathroom didn't have net curtains on the window,so had to use the Window blind, which made the room dark.other than that would love to stay there again.

A cosy autumn break
Would recommend a stay here, a cute little place in the centre of the town. Only real downside is because of that you can’t easily drive very near to park a car, but that was fine for us.
