My daughter especially loved taking time to be friend the local cats. She says "The cats are really kind and like to be stroked." · via Google [Anya Chapman](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/112637947155205296857/reviews) ★★★★★ Very tranquil and relaxing site to visit. Entrance is free for English Heritage etc members. Small museum and video of traditional Manx was of life in the ticket office at the centre of the village. Free car park a few minutes walk up the road. There are traditionally dressed guides in many of the buildings who can provide as much information about the village, its residents and Manx traditions as you could ever need. Well worth a visit, even if you don't want to pay you can still mooch around the village, see traditional thatching and take in the stunning views. Small cafe and public toilets on site. Staff are super-friendly. · via Google [Brian Denny](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/102233510489633164095/reviews) ★★★★★ Absolutely loved visiting this place. Hosts in a number of cottages to take you back in history. Lorna was the first one we met then the fiddler. Some houses are private there so becareful you dont go in to the wrong house! · via Google [Joe Upsall](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/103338350100680499933/reviews) ★★★★★ I was so impressed with this place. I can with no expectations and so much to see in a small area. The guides were brilliant and brought the place to life.
