    I loved the property. It was clean and new. We were only there one night but if ever in Tasmania again I would make sure I book this place again. It reminded me of going to my aunts house on the coast of Maine.

A 5-minute drive to Launceston's CBD and a 5-minute walk to the famous Cataract Gorge Reserve. This renovated home has 3 large bedrooms with Queen size beds and a SEPARATE 1 Queen bed bungalow. The main house also has 2 bathrooms, a bright, sunny open living space + well equipped kitchen to complete this perfectly renovated property. Crisp, clean linen & ultra-comfortable beds will make your stay the best it can be. WiFi, Netflix & three flat screen TV's are yours to enjoy. A well priced basic accommodation experience close to everything. Launceston and the Tamar Valley were voted 4th in Lonely Planet's places to visit in 2025 (Australia's only place on the list).
Stu & Nelyn : we are relaxed, easy-going people who love living in Tasmania. Together we have travelled extensively but we always love returning to this beautiful, clean part of the world. I have lived here all of my life, am self-employed in real estate and have extensive local knowledge. I can offer as much help as you may need with your travel plans. Our charming cottage is within an easy walk to cafes and Launceston's city centre. Whenever practical your hosts will aim to be available at all times to ensure you have everything you need. Excellent communication and a guest information manual will guarantee that you are familiar with all aspects of the property. Our extensive knowledge of attractions across Tasmania is available to help you plan your itinerary if required. Co-hosts are Kath+ Paul.
