Customer Reviews of Our Camping and Glamping Service at the Isle of Man TT
After every race we ask our customers for feedback on aspects such as how they rated our service overall, the staff, the food and facilities. We also ask them if they have any suggestions as to how we can improve. Here are their overall ratings with any comments they were happy to be made public.
Just finished the 2024 TT in a four man glamping tent. We were really happy with the accommodation and all the facilities especially the showers and toilets that were really clean and tidy and even in busy periods the shower wait time was minimal.
Staff were awesome and always helpful.
The proximity to Douglas CBD and the race pits made everything easy to access.
The campsite itself was brilliant, ran by a company called ‘IntentsGP‘ and they basically follow most F1 and MotoGP events across Europe, they are two young lads who, Anthony and Alex, who are the friendliest people you’ll ever meet. They offer you a cold beer on arrival and will literally do anything they can to make your stay as best as it can be. The tent itself was a 2 man tent, however it was more than big enough for just me, you could have easily had 4 people in it, airbed and pillows are provided also a table and chairs. Sleeping bags, lamps and other little bits are available to rent from the reception for a small fee. I would 100% recommend staying with this company if you are heading to the TT or any motorcycling event. I will definitely be staying with them again when I return next year.
Absolutely wonderful staff especially the New Zealand bathroom cleaner and Antonio at the reception. They helped us sooo much.
For some reason the usb plugs didn’t work for our phones like they were too big or something
Overall it was a good experience and normally the bedding would have been adequate but for the unseasonably cold temps.
Félicitations et remerciements particuliers pour l'exceptionnel dévouement, l'implication et la bienveillance du personnel en charge des sanitaires.

Congratulations and special thanks for the exceptional dedication, involvement and kindness of the staff in charge of the toilets.
Every part of the process, from booking to checking out was as painless as possible. Great customer service and friendly staff over the entire weekend.

-ve Los baños (translated: the bathrooms)
I am sorry you did not enjoy your stay with us. We did hire luxury showers and toilets for our guests. Staff regularly checked the showers and toilets during their shifts but given the amount of rain we have experienced (the worst we have ever seen) it was difficult to ensure they were completely free of mud and grass.
Overall good setup however if the weather isn’t kind tents are cold with little comfort. Beds could be better but really good showers and toilets with staff cleaning constantly. Friendly staff who are willing to help if they can.
Rugby Club welcoming and varied food and drink available.
Overall a good experience 🤓
Our stay at the 2019 TT was brilliant despite the dreadful weather; the IntentsGP team were always available, always helpful and always cheerful. The showers and toilets were clean and very well maintained, the whole set up was thoughtfully put together and really made the difference. We would definitely stay with you again..
We only stayed one night but loved the experience and the guy on site who dealt with us was lovely
Communal feel to the campsite
If you enjoy tents then you’ll have no problem
Intents were a great option for staying at the TT, we had a 2 man flaming tent for a couple of nights.
Everything was well organised and the tent equipped with all you needed.
The staff were friendly and helpful and the site facilities were second to none.
We will be staying again on our next visit to the island.
海外ではなかなかできない体験
新婚旅行でマン島TTをみたいと思ったのですが、宿が軒並み満室で思い切ってテント泊にしてみました。レース会場にもダグラス中心部にも近く、結果的に利用してよかったです。スタッフもとても親切でした!
シャワールームが少なかったのが若干気になりましたが、キャンプ場という性質上仕方ないかもしれません。

Experience that you can not do easily overseas
I thought that I wanted to see the Isle of Man Toming on my honeymoon, but I tried hard to make a tent overnight staying in a hotel full of rooms. It was close to the race venue and the center of Douglas, so it was nice to use it as a result. Staff was also very kind!
Although I was a little worried that there was not much shower room, it may be ineffective on the character of campground.
Very good location was fab accommodation, had a few issues with blow up bed but they were resolved
Great people, good service in difficult weather conditions. Staff always helpful and friendly. Would use again!
Nice staff. Terrible blowup beds kept deflating. Awful nights sleep. Found alternative accommodation
The staff were welcoming. Nice touch with the welcome drink.
The ‘glamping’ was certainly not that. We have glamped before with strawberry fields and the quality of the yurts with intents is no match for strawberry fields yet the same price range. The yurts are flimsy. The blow up beds were cheap quality meaning a dreadful nights sleep with the bed constantly deflating. A night that we will never repeat. So we checked out the very next day, forfeited our 2 nights and found a B and B. The showers, whilst warm were not clean. You had 4 staff on the welcome desk waiting to serve people. They would have been better deployed in brushing out the excess water and grass from the showers in between each persons shower. The same with the toilets.
We are very sorry Karen that you did not enjoy your stay with us. Our bell tents are not yurts and they are top level (supplied by one of the leading UK manufacturers). The beds are one of the most expensive brands. I am very sorry you had a problem with the bed. We have had problems with the latest batch from the manufacturer and will be taking this up with them. The number of staff on reception relates to the numbers of guests we anticipate to arrive at any time so that they are not delayed. We know many will have had a long journey so we want them to get to their tent as soon as possible so that they can relax. Our staff regularly check the toilets and showers during their shift. It would not be feasible to have members of staff stood outside ready at all times to clean out the water and grass after every single person has used a toilet or shower. The rain (and wind) has been the worst we have ever experienced.
Generali it is all right, the people who management the camping site are very good and their disposal are 24h.
I am happy for choose this campsite!!!
Totally recommended!!!
Alex Anthony and the team were exceptionally professional and very pleasant during our stay. We have already recommended your company
To our friends and work colleagues. We look forward to using you again.
Top hosts. Very helpful. Great setup. Highly recommended
Good location, very busy so avoid the peak times at all costs. I was up and showered very early every day so didn't suffer from queuing or lack of hot water. Overall a good value option, will use again. Staff worked tirelessly to provide a service, were always cheerful and helpful when they could.
Will remember about a very nice campsite entry zone, with an excellent shower box and functional tea/coffee/recharge area; have not seen the communal Tent but I was told that's so cosy too.
Super quick are the check in/out procedures, adequate and well erected are the standard tents ( I do like these "Sendero 4"), comfortable is the Eurohike Flocked Airbed.
Last but not least, an excellent Staff: kind, affordable and super handsome. The plus of the organisation relays on pleasant people.
We stayed with intentsgp on what looked like an Indian reservation. Plenty of space in our four man bell tent for the three of us. Clean & tidy showers & loos & nothing was too much trouble. Plus free coffee & tea on tap & a phone charge station which was invaluable. Would definitely use again
Verry expensive for nothing to have
I am sorry you did not enjoy your stay with us Marcel. It can be difficult to understand all the costs involved with transport (Ferry freight rates not domestic and they are huge), staff, the campsite charge, laundry, 20% VAT and lots more.
Staff was excellent
A great first stay with Intentsgp the location was spot on and cabins were comfortable nice having power and a lockable area whilst out for the day
I would 100% recommend this site for the isle man TT to friends
I tents are a very well ran company, great staff..
And very clean showers and toilets,
Would definitely use them again..

Gezellig ingerichte tenten met verrassend comfortabele luchtmatrassen als bedden. Tenten zijn goed bestand tegen de weersinvloeden zoals regen en harde wind. Af en toe de scheerlijnen nalopen en waar nodig strakker spannen. Toplocatie bij de Douglas Rugbyclub, heerlijk ontbijt, goede voorzieningen.
Translated:
Comfortably furnished tents with surprisingly comfortable air mattresses such as beds. Tents are resistant to weather influences such as rain and strong winds. Check the guy lines occasionally and tighten where necessary. Top location at the Douglas Rugby Club, delicious breakfast, good facilities.
Great venue. Friendly and helpful staff. Location was excellent for the TT course
The staff were great
We had an utterly obnoxious couple next to us. Their behaviour was appalling and they should’ve been removed from the site. The staff were excellent at moving us away from them so no complaints there
Outstanding accommodations !

Get me out of the rain.
€ 137.50 for sleeping under a cheap tent in a flooded meadow with 3 toilets for 400 people, it looks like an idiot.
I am very sorry you did not enjoy your stay Bruno. The weather conditions have been the worst we have ever experienced. There was no flooding. We stayed in a new area this year where the drainage had been improved in preparation for our visit and we have been very impressed how it has performed given the weather. You stayed in our standard 2 person tent (which will actually cater for 4 people). This is a very popular model and is used by a number of different companies similar to ourselves. We have 9 toilets on our own site and there are at least 8 more in the clubhouse. There were just over 300 hundred guests on our site.
Gute Lage. Ausstattung für ein Zelt gut. ( Matratzen, Kopfkissen, Tisch und Stühle vorhanden) Personal sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit

If you ever want to camp at a Motorsport event you should choose InTentGP.
Expensive but worth every penny and the service is beyond great. So is the friendliness of the staff.
Had a fantastic week glamping at the TT. Intents team were fantastic and very helpful.
It was our first visit to the TT and the intents site was a great base, after many years at Le Mans this was definitely a step up with the facilities being spacious and clean. The intents and rugby club staff were really friendly and helpful, a great vibe to the campsite. Location was perfect with not too far from airport, also walkable to main grandstand area.
Would definitely come back to Intents in future.
Good set up, location good, plenty of clean showers, toilets and charging points. You get what you pay for compared to lugging over you own equipment and setting up. 4/5 easily
Most Excellent
Liked: Everything
Disliked: Nothing
Thoughtfully set up communal areas, clean and well maintained showers and toilets, great helpful staff
Airbeds werent very reliable
Thanks Joanna. We buy one of the most expensive airbeds but there has been problems with the latest batch which we have not experienced before. We shall be talking to the manufacturer about this.
Excellent
I was gutted to be leaving
The start are first class and very friendly. They were always available to help if needed
Comfy tents, clean ablutions, friendly and security-conscious staff at the site handy to good race viewing spots and useful bus stops. I’d camp here again.
Just come back from the TT in the Isle of man. Stayed with our kids. Service was excellent. Facilities were clean and the tent was great. It was nice not having to take bedding and towels with us as they were there ready for us in our tent.
The free tea and coffee, the hairdryers and the relaxing tent were great and these little touches made it amazing for us. Will definitely use intentsgp again.
Alex and his team were brilliant
The staff was extremely personable and accommodating. I have already recommended them to many friends.
intentsGP were just great. We arrived at 3 a.m. (12 hours before our allotted slot) and they were available and managed to allocate us a tent so that we were to get some much needed sleep. Great contact throughout our stay, always approachable and highly recommended. Would definitely use them again.
Great tent, great service, even offered a free beer on arrival. Staff were really polite and very approachable. All ran like clockwork. Thanks guys.
Good staff and community atmosphere.
It was stated in my booking that there would be free WiFi and luggage storage available, this was not the case. The air mattress was uncomfortable and deflated every night. There needs to be clearer expectations and rules for night time - every night at 2am there were people carrying on and being very loud.
I am sorry you did not enjoy your stay Ana. There was free wifi available in the clubhouse area and we have had no other complaints about it. Regarding your luggage, you only had to ask and we would have stored it for you so I do not understand your comments. We buy one of the most expensive airbeds but there has been problems with the latest batch which we have not experienced before and this is very disappointing. We shall be talking to the manufacturer about this. We do have strict rules about noise - total quiet from midnight. It is not always easy to police and we do expect certain standards from our guests. If you had mentioned this to us we would have taken action (even if it was the morning after).
As first-timers to the IOM TT, we weren’t sure on exactly what to expect, our ferry arrived early morning (06:15) so we stopped for a cooked breakfast at ‘The Caff’, as the camp facilities advertised opening from 7am. However, once we arrived at the site, the InTentsGP staff are extremely friendly, approachable and were very welcoming and accommodating upon our arrival, and especially after a long day beforehand which included a late 3+ hour ride, the team looked after our luggage and allowed us to utilise the facilities (better planning to be had next time).
We were glad that there were only three of us staying in the four-berth cabin, as four persons would have made this a little cramped, we were able to use one of the upper bunks as storage, and spaces under the beds were also used, room for improvement InTentsGP?.
We had some really great weather, although the cabins can be a little drafty in places at night time., toilet and shower facilities are great, even though there was a little congestion at times (pick your timings), that being said there was sufficient hot water available and tea & coffee available continuous.
A big thank you for the InTentsGP site staff for making this an amazing first trip, also a big thanks for the customer care personnel handling all the emails and questions.
I stayed for the 23 TT , staff super friendly and helpful , place was kept spotless clean , very impressed , would stay again .
Thanks for everyone on site it was a great few days very helpful had great fun and great memories got rock to sleep on the last night with wind but had a good laugh about it and that's what camping is all about always stories to go with it Thanks alot will always be one for the books
Totally professional and extremely helpful throughout our stay. Everything in plentiful supply, very clean facilities. Everyone in our group of 24 has requested we rebook for next year. A team your company should be very proud of.
A great location at Douglas Rugby Club and the glamping tent was fab.
The negative review's that I had read were rubbish. Good Airbeds (that did not deflate), and this meant a good nights sleep.
Again -forget the rubbish - good clean showers. Good temperature and just powerful enough.
We were very lucky as the weather was fantastic - hot and sunny - Friday 2nd through to Monday 5th June.
The chat with all of the staff and the other guests (the bikers) at the campsite and also at the Rugby Club for a few beers ands a pizza was fab.
Everyone was polite and friendly and in good spirits looking forward to the TT Racing.
I would have NO hesitation in booking the Glamping Site again at the Douglas Rugby Club - IOM
Alex und Co. sind total hilfsbereit und gehen auf die Wünsche ein. Zur Begrüßung bekam jeder ein Bier. Bei der Ausstattung wurde an alles gedacht. Es gibt ein extra Zelt um elektronische Geräte aufzuladen. Hier ebenfalls Kaffee und Tee gratis. Fön und Spiegel liegen zur Nutzung bereit.
Translated
Alex and Co. are totally helpful and go to the wishes. Everyone was greeted with a beer. The equipment was thought of everything. There is an extra tent to charge electronic devices. Here also coffee and tea for free. Hair dryer and mirror are ready for use.
These tents we're run/ managed by intentsgp and they obviously know what they're doing. The tents we're great as were the shower facilities and flushing portable loos. Can't really beat the price for the location!
Great in a pinch
The inflatable mattresses were more comfortable than expected and the blankets they provide are more than suitably soft and warm.
Cost per night dictates that you should be getting more for your money, but it was the TT races and availability was very low.
It was great!
Gentel and helpful Staf.
Quiet and comfortable
Have stayed with In Tents a few times since 2008....keeps getting better each year. Staff very pleasant and always on hand if you need anything. I will be back again. Great showers and toilets and the free tea and coffee are a fantastic touch and show they think about their guests! Thanks
Very nice staff and location,.
Sometimes cold water in shower.
Sorry about the shower Lukasz. We did have frequent checks on the gas supply but occasionally a gas bottle would run out before we had had time to change it. We will look to see how we can improve our monitoring system for 2020.
Facilities were good , and clean , and in a good location . It was busy , but didn't feel crowded .It was a pity about the weather this year , but we did see some racing
It was a wonderful time on the IOM. The tents are very comfortable and the Location is just perfect.
Loved the glamping tents. Very comfy & huge air bed. Loved the fairy lights & the table, made it such a relaxing stay. The toilets and showers were clean.
We thought the tent was a little over priced for what we got. Wouldn’t fault the place but wouldn’t pay this much again to stay in a tent.
Very clean and organised. Staff brilliant and helpful. Best toilets and showers and always clean.
We arrived at the reception area where the intents staff new our name and the group was handed a beer a very good start. There was always hot water in the clean new and tidy showers, staff were always on hand. The tents were new and well equipped. It was a good well organised stay wouldn’t hesitate to use again if we camp.
It was very cold at night , I think supplying sleeping bags would be better than quilts. If not recommend you bring your own , its that cold we couldn't sleep the first night. Quick walk down to Douglas Millets and got a couple, made it more comfortable for the rest of the stay.
The toilets and showers were immaculately clean , shower queues in the morning , however we left showering to the evening when there were no queues.
Could do with more charging points as these are often full and people just leave them locked for hours.
Overall we really enjoyed the stay with you , once we could get warm !
Intents GP are superb hosts!.. the facilities were perfect, the staff were amazing really friendly and easy to approach. The Glamping tent was also perfect even with heavy showers for days, us and all our stuff were dry. Its location was also perfect being located on Quarterbridge corner leading onto the straight. Would definitely stay here again!
The Intents staff were very professional and provided excellent hospitality and the service exactly as advertised for the practice week of the TT.
Große Klasse!
Beste Lage direkt am Geschehen, sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal! Es hat uns sehr gut gefallen!!! Auch bei Regen hat das Zelt immer dicht gehalten!
Das einzige, was mir nicht gefallen hat, war, dass die Nächte doch etwas frisch waren und es auch geregnet hat . Aber für das Wetter kann ja niemand was 🙂
Translated:
Great class!
Best location right on the action, very friendly and helpful staff! We liked it very much!!! Even in the rain, the tent has always kept tight!
The only thing I did not like was that the nights were a bit fresh and it was raining too. But nobody can care for the weather 🙂
Très bonne semaine sur l'ile de Man: des courses impressionnantes, une ile magnifique et cette année une très belle météo.

Very good week on the Isle of Man: impressive races, a magnificent island and this year a very beautiful weather.
Once in a life-time experience
The location was amazing and the staff were very friendly and helpful.
The airbed went down very quickly
We'll be back 🙂
Even though it was a wet weekend the tents were warm and dry there is everything you could possibly need and the staff are top class!
The only thing I could fault was that the toilets smelt when you flushed them! But that's to be expected!
excellent tents, excellent site, comfy air beds and decent beer onsite, superb
We loved our Glamping tent. Arriving on foot without the ability to bring camping gear, having everything already set up was brilliant. We only stayed one night due to previous arrangements but would have gladly enjoyed multiple nights there! Thanks for making our first night on the Isle of Man so excellent!

Too expensive - but otherwise ok
The location was great. Were to the TT on the Isle of Man.
The air beds lost the air overnight.
Very sorry about your airbed Silke. We have had problems with a batch from our supplier and we will be addressing this issue on our return to base.
My first time to the IOM TT and InTents. I flew all the way from California to do this. I had an absolute blast! Overall, my experience was top notch and I would definitely return. The clamping cabins were definitely the way to go. Lockable and had real beds. The glamping site at the Douglas Rugby club was very well organized.
We said our visit to Isle of Man TT was going to be a "one of" to tick off item on our "bucket list" of things we'd like to do. Having been there once though we are definately going to do it again & won't hesitate to use Intents GP next time.
I was so unbelievably impressed by the service! Lisa was constantly on hand, even on a bank holiday, to help with any questions etc. We were shattered when we arrived and on the off chance asked if we could check in early. The lads were amazing, so welcoming and couldn’t do enough for us. They allowed us to check in early, offering us an upgrade at a small fee on our tent too with a cold glass of wine and beer! The tents were surprisingly like a home from home and for someone like me, who’s a bit of a snob lol, I was really amazed by the whole service! Its totally changed my perception of camping! We would highly recommend anyone to use intents! The team are literally incredible and their customer service is second to none! Thank you so much guys, we will definitely see you again!
We arrived home yesterday after the best few days away with the IntentsGP guys at IOM TT.
Great bunch of lads, excellent facilities, immaculate site and our Bell Tent was just perfect.
I’ll keep checking back for next year’s dates to be released, can’t wait for to do it all again!
Thanks for everything guys,
I’d just like to second Netty’s post, couldn’t of chosen a better place to stay for our break away. Everything was just perfect, the only downside was having to leave
Thank you all so much for looking after us, you guys all do a great job
We shall most definitely be seeing you again!
Netty & Jon xx
IntentsGP is the place to stay when visiting the TT on the Isle of Man. The staff are brilliant and cannot do enough to make your stay perfect. The facilities are top class, good showers and toilets and always clean. Free tea and coffee and a charging station for your electrical goods. The tents and bedding are also A1 perfect. I would highly recommend them to anyone wishing to have a perfect TT trip. Thank you so much and I look forward to seeing you all again soon.
Just come back from the TT in the Isle of man. Stayed with our kids. Service was excellent. Facilities were clean and the tent was great. It was nice not having to take bedding and towels with us as they were there ready for us in our tent.

Alex and his team were brilliant
We had our first time at the TT and we are very happy that we stayed over in a glamping tent of intents gp. Service was great! Tents were comfortable. Sanitary was clean and proper. Enough food choices at the campsite. Maybe just to remind that the nights can be very cold, especially when sleeping in a tent. Even when the day temp. is high (we had +-20°C at daytime!) Bring enough warm clothes or an extra sleeping bag. Make sure you won't get cold feet at night! It will make your day even better. Love.
Fantastic service, I will definitely be returning to the isle of man and I will definitely be using intentsGP again
Pleasantly surprised and pleased by the standard of accommodation and services provided (free tea/coffee 24 hours a day and good set up for free charging of phones)
Staff really friendly and approachable & nothing was too much trouble for them
Never too long a wait for the showers and water always hot
For the first time ever NO queue for ladies toilets - a revelation at large venues!!
Would certainly book again especially if you could guarantee such amazing weather next time!!!
Thank You

+ve The location.
-ve The bathrooms are few, dirty and far away. The air mattresses are small. The service delivered is disproportionate to the price paid.
I am very sorry you did not enjoy stay John. We provide the number of bathrooms as stipulated by the local regulations. There are times when they would have been busier than normal depending on demand. We agree that they could have been positioned better and we will remedy that next year. Staff regularly check the showers and toilets during their shifts but given the amount of rain we have experienced (the worst we have ever seen) it has been difficult to ensure they are completely free of mud and grass. As regards the bed size, that is difficult because we supply the industry standard size models of singles and doubles.
Easy check in and information, staff looking after the showers, toilets and covered are by tea and coffee station always attentive, friendly and welcoming. Kept the facilities clean and tidy always made sure cleaned and presentable after last customer.
Staff on reception not as good, still waiting to hear if we can have a late check out (don't worry now we are home), no one there at check out. Unable to tell us where the electric points were for ladies hair drying even though mentioned in the info pack.
Great stay, cannot fault

Thank you so much for having us. My friend and myself had a great time. Site was lovely and the staff were friendly and couldn’t do enough for us. Will definitely be back
Great place to stay , great facilities, bathroom facilities spotlessly clean ... nice hot showers ... very helpful staff would definitely recommend !
Booked this for my sons Stag do. Feed back from the guys was excellent. Spotlessly clean toilets. Only complaint was a couple of the quilts were unavailable however they were issued with sleeping bags. Positive experience
Very helpful and friendly staff, go above and beyond the call of duty when required. Organised with enough stuff to help with your stay.
Martyn from England TT 2018
Generally a good experience would definitely be back
We traveled a lot to get to you. We came from Hungary.
It was a great experience, the reception is simply excellent!
We will come again next year!
Thanks Alex, Anthony and Harrison - you guys were the perfect hosts. The tents were super clean and very comfortable, I would definitely use you again.
Always smiling and a good laugh!
avoid at all costs the glamping experience,,,, small, cold, noisey, damp....beds deflated....unhygienic
I am very sorry you did not enjoy your stay Ravinder. You stayed in a 4 metre glamping tent which is a standard size for two people as you can see in the photographs. The weather (wind and rain) was the worst we have ever experienced. We do insist on total quiet after midnight and if made aware will enforce this standard. Very sorry about the beds. We buy one of the most expensive available but have had some problems with the latest batch which we will be taking up with our supplier. If informed of any problems, our staff will remedy the situation immediately. We have our staff regularly check the showers and toilets but given the general conditions it has been difficult to keep them completely clear of mud and grass on a constant basis.
Just had a very enjoyable, comfortable holiday in a glamping tent at the IoM TT. The facilities provided were excellent and the friendly and attentive staff led by Anthony deserve top marks. Nothing was too much trouble and the mobile charger units on site were a welcome bonus.
Cannot praise this company highly enough. If you want a glamping experience at a racing event then this is the company to use. Well done Team Intents GP. Hope to see you again next year. Alan Whitham.
My first glamping experience couldn’t be better (except maybe the weather). The tents and facilities were clean with nice little touches like solar lights and comfy bed linens and a welcome beer. The staff were incredibly friendly and quick to respond to any queries or requests. Definitely recommend.
All of the staff were great guys and extremely helpful. Not sure camping is for us but I would 100% recommend you to others.
參與英國的大型聚會的感覺,很棒~是個特別的體驗。對看賽車來說,地點絕佳~帳篷布置得很有氣氛~

The feeling of participating in a large gathering in the UK is great~ a special experience. For the racing car, the location is excellent~ the tent is very atmospheric~
The spring in the UK is still a bit cold for the Taiwanese. The equipment is not enough to keep warm and will wake up QQ.
This was such a neat experience. The tent was just perfect. Exactly as it is portrayed on line. The staff was AMAZING!!!! The staff went way above and beyond any expectation to make our stay memorable.
very helpfull staff, taking all the time and helped with the luggage. Douches (he means showers) were great, maybe a few extra toilets for next year
Staff were really friendly and helpful. Tent was lovely set up. Bed could get reinflated at any time. Showers and toilets were good. Bottle of beer on arrival. Little things make the difference.
Bit too far from Grandstand if not totally fit and it’s an uphill climb. Posh loos closing from 12:00 until 6am but can understand why. First time I’ve seen ladies loos a bit messy.
Thank you Tracy. It has been difficult to keep the loos clean with all the mud/grass ingress following all the rain.
Perfect location, 20 min. walk from the city centre, but right on the race track! Very friendly staff!!
The location was perfect for watching the TT. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The showers and toilets were spotlessly clean.
Needless to say we had a fantastic stay and have already booked for next year!
Our tent was spacious, bed was comfortable and clean. All staff were helpful, friendly, nothing was too much trouble. Despite wet weather, we enjoyed our clamping experience and would definitely use Intents again.
After reading a few reviews I was a little concerned as to what I had booked, I needn't have worried. The showers were hot and clean every time I used them, the tea and coffee stations were well stocked and hot water available every time apart from one particularly busy morning (some bloke was filling his washing up bowl just after it had been refilled, hardly in-tents fault). The tent and everything within was fine, my airbed stayed firm all week (mon-sat) and I was warm enough, it was cold our first few nights but with appropriate night wear we were warm enough, the towel was even nice and soft. All the staff we interacted with were lovely and helpful and we noticed them constantly cleaning the facilities, even at around midnight one evening. When I next go to the TT I wouldn't hesitate to use these guys again, the clubhouse and facilities in and around it were also excellent and being able to walk to the edge of the site and watch the racing if you so wish was brilliant.
We had 3x nights in a 4 man yurt, tents very nice and the beds were very comfitable, the staff were great and very happy to help with any issues we had, the homely chilling tent was great warm and plenty of games and dvds to keeps us busy on a evening, we look forward to seeing you again next year for the 2020 TT, Many Thanks

We were there for practice week and first weekend of racing, toilets and showers could easily cope with the amount of people staying there. However the race weekend queues were getting large, more toilets required, Overall very pleased with the accommodation and facilities for camping. To improve could have its own bike park
Great friendly staff and good facilities
Blow up bed would deflate quite fast and it was a little cold.
I am very sorry re your airbed problem. We have had issues with a batch of airbeds from our supplier and we will be addressing this on our return to base. We did have extra blankets at reception for anyone who wanted them. The delightful British summer!
Great place great setup great location staff really helpful when needed facilities great couldn’t ask for more big thumps from myself and my 4 year old and 7 year old daughters thanks
Ohne Decke War kalt!
Translated: Without blanket Was cold!
I am sorry about the weather. We did bring extra blankets and we will certainly be bringing even more next year.
This was a good location and campsite. The staff were helpful and friendly, and the tea and coffee was winner.
It was at times difficult to get a locker for charging devises, so you had to be patient.
Would recommend you bring a sleeping bag as although the quilts were very good, it is still cold and damp in the tent, and we had a new one, others were complaining of mould.
Great location for for the TT . You can walk easily from the campsite to Bray Hill. The clubhouse is ideal for after race food, good company and a beer or two.
geweldige ervaring.
mooi eiland erg behulpzaam personeel van intentsgp tijdens de TT en toplocatie
(Translated: amazing experience.
beautiful island very helpful staff of intentsgp during the TT and prime location)
Location was ok
Not as advertised. Not clear what I was booking on booking.com
I am sorry that you have decided to post this anonymously as I would have liked to engage with you further about your comments. I find it disquieting that you say it was not as advertised and it was not clear what you were booking. You booked through booking.com and they quite rightly set high standards regarding the quality of information provided. We have over 40 photographs in total showing all of the tents (minimum of 4 photos for each) as well as images of our toilet and shower facilities. In addition we show some of the actual campsite. We also provide a map of our location (in addition to the one provided by booking.com).
Overall the site and staff are brilliant. Location perfect, good facilities and helpful, prompt staff.
The toilets and showers kept very clean by the staff.
Tents ok but some sort of better beds would be an advantage as kept deflating.
Great second time 3 night stay we enjoyed everything.
Great service, nicely laid out site, good staff and phone charging lockers were excellent
Great service and friendly staff would highly recommend using, I would use them again.
Staff were welcoming and very helpful. We really enjoyed our time with intents despite the weataher. The racing was incredible! It was a one time for us but definitely recommend these people if you want to camp.
We had a great time in a 4 person glamping tent at the intents GP site at the IOMTT23. The location is very good, with the rugby clubhouse on site, Douglas and the Fan Zone within 15-20 min walk, and even a few viewing spots from within the campsite if you don't manage to make it out before the road closures. The quality of the accommodation was very good, with comfortable beds and bedding and a fluffier towel than I have at home, beautiful clean hot showers and very clean toilet facilities. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the site felt secure. Being able to make a cup of tea to get us going in the mornings was brilliant. The site was nice and quiet of an evening but there was a good atmosphere in the rugby club.
Excellent staff. Friendly service. Tents and beds were clean. We would def book intents again
Unsatisfied
Location was good, handy bus stop outside
Accommodation was not worth the money, tent was damaged, air beds kept deflating, facilities were marginal. Glamping in very loose terms, should not have been advertised as such. Very basic and poor quality!
I am very sorry you did not enjoy your stay Steven. We tell every single guest that if they have any issues or need anything to come to our staff who are around from 6am until midnight and can solve any problem such as tent damage. We buy one of the most expensive airbeds but there have been problems with the latest batch which we have not experienced before. We shall be talking to the manufacturer about this. I don't know what facilities you felt were marginal but we hired in luxury toilets and showers (photos available on our website). Our glamping tents are high end from one of the biggest UK manufacturers.
Our experience with IntentsGP on the IOMTT 2018 was great, very kind staff, willing to help with anything requested. Will definitively recommend it. Thanks guys.
Un super accueil les lit dans les tente sont très confortable , l'équipe est très réactive et a l'écoute le site est super bien placé je recommande !!
Translated:
A great home bed in the tent are very comfortable, the team is very responsive and listens to the site is super good I recommend!
Great location. However we had many days of rain which was a test for the tents. Great friendly staff to help with all your needa
Good value for money
Nice staff. All facilities top notch and clean
Only one toilet block so if you were in a far tent it was a trek.
Thank you Ian. Yes we will arrange the layout in a different way next year so that there is a toilet block closer for everyone.
Nice and friendly staff. Perfect location
The staff was very pleasant and informative. Location was very close to the action.
The air mattresses leaked during the night so by morning you were on the ground totally ruining your night of sleep and entire next day!! After the first night and a repeat performance we shorted our trip and made reservations elsewhere. Expected clean towels daily and was sadly disappointed. Traffic next to the tent woke us through out the night.
I am very sorry Linda that you did not enjoy your stay. We have had problems with a batch of airbeds from our supplier and we will be addressing this issue on our return to base. We did not plan to change the towels each day but normally we had fresh ones available at reception if requested. The traffic was from the bikes entering the campsite. We had also put all the staff tents along the fence as well so they slept badly too. It was very disappointing people were revving their bikes loudly at night and in the morning (not our guests I hasten to add). We did give out ear plugs to guests when they mentioned the problem. Next year we will definitely address this issue.
Great place, fantastic location, and most of all the staff where on hand to look after everyone's needs.
Will be back next year for the TT again.
Perfect location for TT. And great camping! Thanks!
Intentsgp didn't disappoint. We used them for the Isle of Man TT and the service / quality of accommodation was second to none.
Staff attentive, facilities always clean and tidy, if I will be glamoing at the TT or GP again then this is the company I will use
This was our first time at the iom tt and what a joy once the racing got underway due to bad weather. Intents made everything very easy the staff were very helpful over the five days they even gave us extra blankets due to the cold weather and the free tea and coffee in the recharge tent was great, although this was our first visit it definitely won't be our last and intents will be at the top of our list for a place to stay, many thanks to all the staff at intents see you again soon.

Wet cold miserable expensive, but the race day was awesome
Extremely expensive for a tent with blow up mattress, then had to pay extra for a sleeping bag and pillow ?
I am sorry you did not enjoy your stay with us Bronwen but that you loved the racing. We can't do much about the weather I am afraid. The pillow was included. It was only the sleeping bag you paid for. We used to include sleeping bags in our package but we found that most preferred to bring their own so we were transporting lots of bags unnecessarily. You may consider it expensive for a tent but it can be difficult to understand the costs of our business. We have to pay commercial freight rates to ferry all the equipment to the island and they are huge. Impossible to hire the showers/toilets locally so we had to transport those with us with the ensuing freight rates. 20% VAT for the Government. 8 members of staff for three weeks full on. All the goods vehicles (which are ours) to transport all the equipment. The fee to Douglas Rugby Club for the use of their excellent campsite. You would gasp at the size of our laundry bill at the IOM with lots of bedding being cleaned every day. There is a whole lot more and then there are also all the expenses of running a full time business......
Very good value for money .And friendly staff.
Het was behelpen, maar in een vriendelijke en behulpzame atmosfeer
Aardige mensen, behulpzame houding, frisse lucht!
Lang en ver lopen om een toilet te bereiken, maakt kamperen boven de 65 minder vrolijk
Translated:
It was easy, but in a friendly and helpful atmosphere
Nice people, helpful attitude, fresh air!
Walking long and far to reach a toilet makes camping above 65 less cheerful
Thanks you for your review Mariel. We are sorry you found the distance to the toilets less than great. They were about a rugby pitch away from you. We do understand that it was all booked at the last minute by you as you did not realise the TT racing was on so were struggling to find accommodation. With more notice we could have situated you closer. We are sorry we could not help more.
Overall a good stay. Very cheerful, efficient staff. Very clean, well organised site. Have booked for next year. A great location for watching the racing.
Disappointing
£412 for a 3 night stay in a tent with an air bed to sleep on and £10 extra per person to hire a sleeping bag was what we didn’t like. Definitely overpriced. Due to location of the campsite you had to leave early due to the racing or you would be stranded on the camp site till racing had finished.
I am very sorry you did not enjoy your stay Mark. Whilst you will look at just the price for a tent, it will be difficult for you to imagine all the substantial costs that go into running this type of business. For example, just for the Isle of Man we have to pay ferry freight rates which are huge of the TT. 20% of the cost is VAT of course. With regard to the sleeping bags, we used to provide them as standard but we found most people preferred their own bedding so we now include it as an additional extra. Because we are inside the circuit, it is not quite so easy to leave when racing is on. However, you are not stranded. We tell all our guests about this and that there are two ways out even during racing. One means crossing a small stream which isn’t ideal particularly after all the recent rain and the other is a walk along a bank which is much easier.
Convenient for the T T
The convenience of not having to take my own tent.
The toilet facilities could have been better and for the price a sleeping bag/ bedding should of been provided.
Best way to see TT
Fantastic customer service, could not be better, very friendly and helpful. Showers were hot and clean, although not much room. Bedding was spotless and bed was extremely comfortable. Tent was clean, dry and warm. Availability and quality of food and drink onsite was excellent.
Difficult to keep clothes dry whilst showering in portashowers. Also a little noisy at night. Would be good if bikes could be parked up by 11.30. Also WiFi did not reach tents.
Our 4-night camping experience was fantastic. Firstly, the location is a major asset, right on Peel Road, providing direct access to the race track by taking the bike, which stays overnight in a nearby parking lot safely secured. The cleanliness of the showers and toilets is exceptional, thanks to the constant efforts of the campground volunteers, who are all very kind and helpful. The rugby club's facility is very close and offers good breakfasts as well as a variety of evening meals, creating a great atmosphere with a bar serving quality beers to unwind at the end of the day. I will definitely return to this campsite if I come back with my friends to the TT!
Stayed quarter bridge. Great tent and facilities. Would highly recommend.
Alex and Anthony are committed and passioned. this converts into very good organised and helpfull staff. definitely coming back here for years to come. greetings stefan
All in all guys you did a great job! Well done all! I was really impressed by the staff, they worked their butts off keeping the site clean and tidy. I was blown away by the cleanliness of the shower/toilet block.
On the subject of staff-all the guys and gals I spoke to were really nice and chatty. Shout out to Mark who always enquired how things were going and was always smiling, also the young dark haired lady (sorry didn’t get your name) that was also really professional-again took the time to make sure all was good and have a quick chat too.
Thankyou to each and everyone of the IntentsGP team. Please make sure they all know their hard work and friendly approach did not go unnoticed.
Thankyou/Diolch,

Great stay during TT race week
We arrived and we’re met by friendly staff to which nothing was a problem. Tea and coffee was available 24 hours a day with Yorkshire tea ! Knew we had picked a good site soon as we saw that ! The tent was clean as were the beds and bedding, the little lights outside were a god send in the middle of the night on bathroom trips. The showers were clean and powerful and any temperature was available to everyone’s liking. The toilets were constantly cleaned and are definitely the best I’ve seen at these type of events. I can’t recommend intentsgp enough. Brilliant ! Thank you and all praise to you and your team for making TT 2023 perfect.
