Hi all,

I have a four bed, 2 bath house available practice and TT weeks.  Would suit 6 people easily but up to 8 at a push.  In Douglas, 10 minute walk to grandstand, promenade and town, with shops 2 minutes away with all you could need.  Secure but not covered parking at back, for one small car or several motor bikes (I would say up to 4).  Please contact me if interested.

Seems they'll be sponsoring the 2nd Superstock race,
