Fred & Jeanine
Both our Apartment and our Garden Cottage provide their own unique space, perfect for you to relax and unwind, in our peaceful surroundings, yet just minutes away from the city of Launceston. Our Apartment is very spacious with a foyer, 2 large bedrooms and a bathroom. Both bedrooms have a tv, and a large window overlooking the river. Our Garden Cottage is set amongst the Proteas and next to our veggie patch, with a deck to relax on, as well as a quiet little garden space with a woodfired BBQ and picnic area. The cottage is fitted out with warm and cosy interior features and is the perfect little hide-away.
Fred and Jeanine enjoy hosting people at their property, and love to serve you breakfast in their own home upstairs. Fred loves to maintain the garden, play his cello and is an avid reader. Jeanine is the creative one and will have a go at any craft including pottery, painting, mosaics and sewing. They have a dutch background,and have five children and many more grandchildren scattered mostly internationally.
Riverside is a quiet peaceful neighbourhood, with a large playground/park only 5 minutes walking away. This park (Tailrace) has plenty of gas BBQ's, and some lovely walks, including one which will take you all the way into Launceston city and the Cataract Gorge. Launceston is only 5 minutes away by car.
