What’s wrong with giving it a season. I think it's the location. If they were hidden away in a woodland setting, say, you can see it might appeal to people, though they are really tiny - you wouldn't want to do more than sleep there. But stuck at the end of Peel Prom at best they're misplaced beach huts, at worst it just says 'shanty town'. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Declan Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 I've stayed in smaller at Festivals - without the Bathroom. Seems a good idea if you want a night out in Peel, I expect there will be take up. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zarley Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 As a Peel resident, I'd much rather that the area was kept as a public recreation space. It needs a bit of sprucing up and in my opinion the commissioners just don't want to spend the money. Our youth need somewhere to blow off steam and the end of the prom is an ideal area. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monasqueen Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 This would not be a temporary erection. The marquee at Derby Castle in Douglas, built for temporary storage of horse trams, was in place for at least 3 years, and has only recently been removed. Looking further afield, some years ago, Liverpool had a marquee built for use by cruise passengers in summer months only. It was supposed to be there for summer months only. It has been there for several years and now seems to be permanent. Will this be different? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Onchan Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 Wasn't it Duke Marketing that put up the accommodation units on the old prison site on Victoria Rd in Douglas for TT 2019? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kopek Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 Prices don't seem accommodating? PDuke says 65 to 130 odd pernight outside of TT period. That might suggest per person? That sounds like good hotel prices. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
