How difficult/expensive is it to take the van over to the island? Are you thinking TT or just a regular visit?

I've priced it at £289 return, sailings seem to be twice a week, leaving Belfast on Sundays & returning on Saturdays.

Sulby Claddagh - one of my favourites, although you need an annual permit, it costs £15. IOM is very motorhome friendly, you will never be stuck for somewhere to park up. Enjoy, when do you plan to visit?😎

Nothing really planned yet, we had our honeymoon there (far too) many years ago & haven't been back since, wife thought it would be nice to see it again.
