Homestay scheme deadline to close

Sunday, 22 May 2011 08:45

The deadline to register your property for the TT and Manx Grand Prix Homestay scheme closes on Monday.

The idea is to allow visitors to rent out a room or a house while they are on the Island.

In 2007, the centenary TT year, 1521 properties were listed, compared to just over 500 this year.

If you want to register your property tourist accommodation contact Pippa Gilbert on: 01624 686802 or e-mail homestay@gov.im.
