More homes needed for next year\'s TT & MGP festivals
Homestay registration for the TT Festival and Manx Grand Prix Festival 2012 has been launched.
The Department of Economic Development has sent out registration forms to home owners who have previously registered offering them the opportunity to register for the scheme again next year but the depatment wants to see more homeowners opening their door to island visitors.
Householders considering offering Homestay accommodation for both events are advised to register their interest with the Department as soon as possible to help to meet the ever-increasing demand and enable visitors to secure their bookings early. The registration fee is £15.00 to include both the Manx Grand Prix and TT.
Homestay can be offered during TT for any number of nights between 28th May and 10th June and for Manx Grand Prix between 18th August and 2nd September 2012. Last year the Department registered over 700 properties.
If you feel you meet the criteria and would like to register for the Homestay scheme please call the Homestay team on 686802 or email homestay@gov.im.
