Lovely hotel. My room was very homely and comfortable. I was on the top floor so had a view of the sea, which was only a couple of minutes walk away. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend and would definitely stay here again.

Just returned from a lovely three day break on the island. We were very fortunate to stay at the Devonian, where nothing is too much trouble for the hosts. Spotlessly clean rooms, delicious breakfasts with lots of choice, and very friendly staff. The location is perfect, and we will definitely return. Thank you for making our stay so special.

Friendly staff and easy check-in and check-out. Room was small but comfortable, bright and clean. Bathroom was clean and nicely decorated. NOTE: The Devonian wouldn't be suitable for anybody with mobility issues as you have to climb steps to get to the front door, and as far as I'm aware there isn't a lift.

Lovely friendly welcome and staff. Amazing breakfasts. Quite central. We were in Room 4 on the first floor. I had disturbed sleep due to a soil pipe leading from the upper floors which went through the corner of the room. This resulted in noise from water rushing down the pipe.

Kevin and the team had done up the house in the spirit of Christmas with a tree and all the trimmings. The room was comfortable and had a restful night after a long journey. There had been a mistake in the booking with me thinking I was on a B&B arrangement. Kevin's wife in the spirit of Thanksgiving offered me a complimentary breakfast for the week. I made a donation to a local Manx charity. Will stay there again in the future.
