Thumbs Down on Social Media To Cosy Nook Plans

Fri, 13 Mar 2020

There has been an angry reaction to Port Erin Commissioners’ plans for the Cosy Nook Café.

The popular tourist spot closed last year after the former tenant’s lease expired

Phillip and Sue Maltby had run the café for many years and were informed that Commissioners planned to put any further use of the building out to tender.

The Port Erin Local Authority has now published the plans on its social media pages. It shows proposals to demolish the existing building and replace it with a modern multi story building.

Angry people have given the proposal a thumbs down with some saying they thought it was April Fools Day.

Some however welcomed the design but feel it would be more suited to the site of the former Marine Biological Station.

Ellis Brown Architects have been commissioned to develop the project.
