More homestay urgently needed for TT

 

Your Island needs you, and your house.

More homestay providers are required for this year's TT and Festival of Motorcycling.

Demand for beds is currently far outstripping the number of people registered with the scheme, where people register their homes to provide bed and breakfast accomodation for visiting bike fans.

The TT Homestay website is now run by Regency Travel in Douglas.

Owner Tony Lawrence says while the scheme is around 250 properties up on this time last year, there is still far more demand than supply.

He says he doesn't want to see a repeat of last year's TT, when people didn't come to the Island because they couldn't find anywhere to stay: (play audio)
