A load of us went over about 3 years ago for a week when the Manx Rally was on ... we tried to get a discount, but they werent having any of it ...
But on a higher note, you will all love it over there ... excellent driving roads, all the TT track is marked out and dont forget " no speed limits "
We hired a cottage for the week, but if you were wanting a cheaper option than BnB you could always use tents ... (just an idea ... lol)

no turned out expensive lol, about 3 and half grand, although i didn't just go for a replacement, went straight cut.
the roads are fantastic, and the lack of speed limits is rather daunting, but you soon get used to it lol

lol, nah alot of the locals give it some over the mountain though so be warned lol
one thing i would say is they will do you if you drive like a burk, so while give it some, do it where its safe to, theres some pretty tight bends, rough patches, and off cambers which can catch you out, so start slow and push as far as you feel happy with, your not in the TT after all
and if you do drive like a burk you'll be done for furious driving, pmsl, which im not sure, but i think either does or very soon will transfer to the mainland

okay just having a look at whats available for where to stay and was wondering what do you all prefer to do ... would you like to stay in a hotel or would you like to stay in self catering cottages ?
cottages will gives us our own space away from the masses plus secure parking.
whereas
hotels will all be fully catered for ?
up to yourselves now !!!
i shall post up some options for cottages/barns
and do a search for some hotels i will try my best to find ones where the cars are parked off the main road too.
