Kitcrazy - tried the camping first year, but apart from crap site management (Douglas RFC) it were blooooody freezing. Even in June the dew was freezing on the flysheet FFS.

Couldn't get in B&B anywhere, so we went Homestay in 2012 and haven't looked back.......

Post by: fazersteve1000 on 05 April 2014, 01:17:26 pm: I think this will be my 20th visit to the tt since 1979,i just booked with the steam packet going on the 23rd may & stopping for 5 nights for £128<bike+2,its only for the practise but I don't think I want to be there for the races as its get a bit crowded & don't forget you got the pre tt classic bikes on the Billown circuit on the 23,24 & 26th may,i should have some self catering sorted out today £60-£75 a night,i also went to classic/manx races last August for the 1st time & its just as good as the tt maybe even better!,but from want I remember I think we paid around £160 for the ferry for practise week but its take place in the main holiday weeks so they jack up the prices a bit
