Earl of Derby, Castletown

This fabulous boutique hotel has opened recently following a painstaking restoration of the old Post Office in the historic town of Castletown. Along with sweeping views of Castle Rushen, the property boasts an enticing café which is perfect for lingering over a well-considered line-up of teas and coffees, light bites, a glass of wine or something with a bit more kick. The basement wine bar has a cellar of hand-picked wines, beers chosen with equal care, and cocktails that don’t mess about! And then there’s the charming suites, each with their own personality and little luxuries dotted here and there, all of which ensure you won’t want to leave in a hurry.
