A very comfortable stay, excellent host and would highly recommend.
Pros: Communication with Christina was very quick with clear instructions for finding the property, for access and, on arrival, helpful information about facilities in the property and the local area. A wonderful welcome pack of foods for breakfast and treats was provided, the cottage was spacious for the two of us and we especially liked the light conservatory. Rivendell is in a quiet road and was in a great setting for us. Christina has thought of everything that could possibly be needed for a very comfortable stay.

Excellent property owner, very accommodating
Pros: This is a quaint quite spacious property. Very clean and the lady that owns it was very accommodating. She was lovely leaving extra things for my mums guide dog. And offered to put us up for an extra night as our ferry got cancelled. We managed to get on a later one. I would highly recommend staying here.

This place is a Gem, such a lovely house and so easy to live in. Few yards down rd pub on TT Circuit
Pros: The House has great character, lovely well equipped kitchen, we ended up cooking every night except one. Christina laid on a lovely welcome pack of food. The Outdoor space is excellent with sun most of the day. The house well set up for nice light conservatory, or cosy living room for later in evening. Bathroom has the best shower I've experienced, so clear and easy to use, and a wonderful view through the skylight
Cons: Nothing could be better !

Rivendell Cottage was charming, and Christina’s hospitality made our Isle of Man trip unforgettable.
Pros: We recently spent a week at Rivendell Cottage in Union Mills on the Isle of Man, and it was absolutely delightful. The cottage itself is charming and full of character — a perfect blend of comfort and quaint charm. Its location is incredibly convenient, just a short walk to the main bus stop in Union Mills, making it easy to travel between Douglas and Peel. Christina, our host, was wonderfully welcoming and thoughtful. She greeted us with a generous selection of food, including fresh bread, which was such a lovely touch. Her hospitality really made us feel at home. Our time on the Isle of Man was truly memorable, and staying at Rivendell Cottage made it even more special. We would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful and well-located base for exploring the island.

Great place for four
Pros: Beautifully appointed with all necessary facilities and plenty of space for four. Handy location for Douglas attractions. Owners very helpful with plenty of notes written and easy to get hold of on phone. Very nice shower and good kitchen equipment.
Cons: Just a couple of things: no dedicated parking but we were always able to park nearby and nowhere to eat out within walking distance apart from pub on corner which didn't serve food every night.
