Ballasalla holds close ties with Castletown and is still remembered for monks and strawberries with cream. The village named from Gaelic meaning 'Place of the Willow Trees' was mainly built from the ruins of Rushen Abbey. A medieval Cistercian founded in the 1100's and dissolved in the 1500's.

Isle of Man

Set in the Irish Sea, the Isle of Man is a unique destination with over 10,000 years of history. Surprisingly large at over 33 miles long and 13 miles wide, there is far more to the Isle of Man than, at first, meets the eye. Venture away from the capital, Douglas, and you’ll find rugged cliffs, sandy coves, miles of uncrowded beaches, enchanting glens and unspoilt countryside, where you can indulge your passion for the great outdoors as you meander through glorious wooded glens drinking in the colours of the purple heather covered moorland. The ancient Celts, Vikings and Christians left the island with a legacy of their lifetime and all around the island you will find evidence of these early settlers - Celtic crosses, medieval fortresses and Viking burial grounds. Its most famous symbols are the Manx cat and the island’s emblem the three legs of Man whose meaning is “whichever way you throw me I stand”.

Whatever your sport, the island offers a host of excellent facilities and pursuits. The Isle of Man has eight superb golf courses, including Castletown Golf Links rated in the UK’s top 100 courses. Douglas boasts the National Sports Centre with superb amenities for swimming, athletics, an all-weather pitch, sports halls and a superb indoor bowls hall. The island is, of course, renowned for world-famous motor cycle events both on and off the road. Fresh or seawater anglers are spoilt for choice with rivers and reservoirs well stocked with rainbow and brown trout and licences are readily available.
