Welcome to murrayandmarie.com

There are three very well known reasons for travelling from one of fifteen airports and four ferry ports to the Isle of Man – the TT motor cycle races in June; to do business in one of the leading and best regulated offshore finance centres or as part of a film crew using the Isle of Man’s position at the heart of the British Isles for the production of movies and TV programmes.

The majority of visitors, however, are families seeking to enjoy the beautiful open space where the quiet beaches and towns at sea level rise through the stunning Manx National Glens to the hills and mountain tops in just a few miles. The Island’s hugely interesting history is preserved by Manx National Heritage through a wide range of museums and attractions (free admission to members of the National Trust) and the Heritage Railways (consisting of steam powered trains and vintage electric trams).

Combine the Isle of Man’s natural beauty with two of the best equipped self catering properties, with the option to enjoy the many pubs, restaurants, sporting, artistic and social events, and we believe you are in for a treat.

Oakhill Cottage, in a rural location alongside the steam railway near Port Soderick, has a double and twin bedroom and is just two miles from Douglas.  Milton Apartment has a double bedroom, is very close to public transport and is just a 10 to 15 minute walk from the centre of Douglas.  Each property has a washing machines, tumble dryer, an electric hob and cooker, fridge and freezer, dishwasher, new central heating boiler, computer (or you can access the internet for free on your own phone, tablet or computer), smart TVs with Sky+HD (including sport and movie channels), Bluray player and convenient free parking.  Your heating and electricity costs are included in the price of booking, as are towels and bed linen.

If you are not convinced that we are the best place to stay then consider where else you might stay in up to 2017 at prices only 10% higher than in 2009? We look forward to seeing you. for the first time or welcoming you on your return.
