A big win for Vale of Lune means that the Port-e-Chee outfit drop a place and now sit in seventh in the Regional 2 North West standings.
Sam McCord crossed for the Manx side's only try with their other points coming courtesy of a Luke Hyland penalty.
Douglas have a chance for a breather next week before facing league leaders Birkenhead Park at Port-e-Chee on February 17.
