The private estate of Glenaspet occupies over 9 acres of idyllic countryside and mature woodland, near the west coast of the Isle of Man.Whilst its peaceful setting invokes a true sense of tranquillity and seclusion, it is only a twenty minute drive from the Douglas airport and a stone's throw away from the historical village of St Johns, the geographical centre of the island and also home to the Manx Parliament, established in the 8th Century.The neighbouring ancient coastal town of Peel, situated on the west coast of the Isle of Man at the mouth of the river Neb, is a five minute drive away. With its sandy beaches, breakwater and harbour, Peel has an enchantment of its own as an idyllic coastal getaway and rare opportunity to travel back in time and escape the entrapments of fast-paced city life.Its spectacular sunsets are made all the more memorable by the magnificent ruined castle that stands on a small island at the west end of the town. Its pink sandstone walls surround an ancientCeltic cathedral dating from the 13th century - it is this cathedral which inspired the locals to affectionately name their town Sunset City.The narrow streets once witnessed the clandestine smuggling activities of the eighteenth century, whist nowadays it is a charming fishing port with narrow, picturesque streets furnished with restaurants, bars and independent shops. Here you will also find the high school, a dance academy and Peel Golf Club.Beautiful walks abound, as to the south of Peel the coastline changes to one of grandeur as the cliffs rise steeply from the sea and lead to the remotest part of the Isle of Man, offering gorges, glens, fishermen's coves and wild moorlands rising steeply from the sea to a 1,500 foot summit. This area of the Isle of Man and has been described by Trail Magazine as 'some of the wildest terrain on any British coast path' and is a true sanctuary for nature-lovers from all walks of life.
