The @iomSteamPacket fastcraft vessel Manannan berthed at the #IsleofMan Ferry Terminal in Liverpool for the first time today as part of the commissioning trial for the facility. The trial enabled major infrastructure marine works to be tested with the vessel.

Nice to recall a very happy visit to the Isle of Man with this article in Scotland on Sunday. I found beautiful beaches, history-filled castles, amazing transport and wonderful spirits. @visitisleofman @CultureVannin @manxlitfest @TheScotsman @fynoderee_iom #travel #buyapaper

'Across the tops' - the setting sun catching the grass and hill tops from a cold Carraghan yesterday afternoon 🥶. Not sure what type of grass this is - but it always looks great in the golden light. #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature @visitisleofman @IOMTourismTrade @BiosphereIOM

'The King of The Forest' - still limited to the odd trip out with the camera gear. Yesterday afternoon was a trek around Tholt-y-Will plantation. #IsleofManLandscapes #ManxNature @visitisleofman @IOMTourismTrade @BiosphereIOM

Fascinating trip earlier this month to @visitisleofman. Remarkable self-governing island nation with lots of parallels with Scotland. And shared history. Piece out today in @SunScotNational. @TravWriters

One of many highlights of the British Guild of Travel Writers’ AGM and Convention on the Isle of Man - hosted by @visitisleofman, and bringing to an end the honour of being joint-chair of the Guild alongside the indomitable Sarah Siese. Good luck to the new team!

This is what #touring looks like on @visitisleofman. Quiet roads, perfect for #cycling or pottering, or using public transport to admire the extraordinary scenery, or parking up for a stroll. And plenty of #campsites to pitch up. #camping #roadtrip #campervan #IOMstory

If scenery at Bradda Head & Milner's Tower, along the 100-mile @visitisleofman coast path, looks this fantastic on a mizzly, overcast winter day, just imagine how amazing it looks in spring/summer. Wonderful #walking from Glendown Farm #Campsite at Port Erin. #IOMstory #isleofman

A lot going on in one of the newest cities in the British Isles - Douglas. Beegees, multiculturalism, Victorian grandeur, a sweeping beach, cool bars & a welcoming, positive vibe. Fly or sail here if you can 😊 #bgtwiom @TravWriters @visitisleofman

Superb gin tasting @fynoderee_iom; rum & vodka too. They’re laying down whiskey too. These 100% Manx produce burgers were also gorgeous. @TravWriters #bgtwiom

Cracking first night on another of the nations of the British Isles: the Isle of Man. Way too many cool people for a population of 80,000. Presume all the bus drivers moonlight as artisan gin makers. What a place! @visitisleofman @TravWriters
