We loved the IoM but I was working in London & Oslo so the travel on and off the island was adding a day to every trip. Here’s where we lived in Onchan
- our house is at the back, sticks up over the terrace

I fell in love with the Isle of Man over 25 years ago and it took me until 2001 to finally get here. It was the best thing we ever did and, while we’d like to find a house with more land in the next 5 years, I’ll never leave. Keep working towards any dreams you may have – after all, if you don’t have a goal, what’s the point in moving forwards!

Cardigan Bay is really beautiful – I’m spending a week there in June because I loved it so much last year. What a place to live! (Will you be getting a spare room).

Well David, it’s only taken us 30 years to nearly get there! Trick is to enjoy the ride!

Alot of what you say rings true with us. We too are looking for that special place, a run down property with an acre or two of land.
Those with the least cash to spend seem to value this lifestyle the most. Must be a philosophy thing.
Still we keep looking, waiting for a buyer for our place and hope the perfect place will come up. Keep looking and positive thinking.
