We travelled to the isle of man with Newmarket holidays it was a very well organised holiday with lots to see and do the hotel Rutland was of a very good standard big and comfortable rooms & very clean, the food was excellent with a good choice. Our guide was excellent extremely knowledgeable and interesting. The isle of man is a lot bigger than I thought with lots going on like food festivals and American car festival and a lot more. The transport services are excellent the electric train and steam train/ horse driven tramway are very enjoyable all the staff are paid by the isle of man government not volunteers. We have travelled all over the world and the isle of man is one of the best place to visit.

Lovely railway with period carriages and locos that are kept in excellent condition despite the daily use. Great views and interesting stations along the way. Well done for maintaining such a great transport system!

Travelled a couple of time on the Steam Railway. It is a really good way way to get around parts of the island especially if your not in a rush. The smell of the steam locomotive took me back to my childhood. Loved it and would recommend it to anyone visiting the island.

Charming and very well run heritage railway with the infrastructure particularly well kept, not a common trait. Staff cheerful and helpful and carriages beautifully upholstered and fitted out. Scenery lovely from train and several places to break a journey.

The steam train was a fabulous experience. The carriages are lovely and the views from the windows were amazing. We were lucky enough to be sat with a local couple who told us lots of very interesting facts and pointed out places of interest. I loved waving at people as we went passed and really enjoyed the whole experience. Would definitely recommend.

Went to one of the Pie & Mash quiz nights over the festive period. Great fun for all ages and so well organised. The lady who organised it, Lottie (head of events), was terrific and brought so much energy to make the event a success. Will definitely book again for this or one of the other steam dining events. Bravo!

Wen went to Port Erin from Douglas by bus. Then did the return journey by steam train. A scenic route, not many opportunities to fo by steam these days in Britain. We had a carriage to ourselves. Later a large family stepped in and there was just about enough space for all of use to fit in. That included two prams. Worth doing if you are visiting the island.

Great day out taking the hour long journey from Douglas to Port Erin. On the way back we broke up the journey with a stop at Castletown - all included in the day return ticket. Very friendly and helpful staff only added to the days enjoyment

Recently visited here, absolutely brilliant. Everything is well restored in excellent condition. The steam trains operate about every 2 hours and allows time in Port Erin or Douglas to explore. The scenery on the line is stunning at the Douglas end of the line with views over the Irish Sea. Facilities are available at Douglas and Port Erin stations. Purchase a Go Explore ticket which is very good value. Also for use on other modes of transport.

Lovely ride on the steam train from Douglas to Port Erin. As everywhere was closed we sat in Port Erin station tearoom until our coach collected us. They have a lovely souvenir shop with nice staff
