This convict built cottage as part of the Brickenden farm is a beautifully appointed space for families and couples wanting a relaxing getaway.
We really appreciated the fireplace which Louise and Co thoughtfully stock with firewood, sticks and newspaper to get things heated up fast. For those that don't want a fire, plenty of heaters are throughout the home also.
The home is very private with all the rear facing windows providing views of the lovely garden space and a small chapel which is quite charming.
There is a good walking trail along the esk river which is perfect for getting fresh air and checking out the other property with its beautiful buildings and gardens.
I don't have any hesitation in recommending this home for anyone wanting a country getaway convenient to Launceston (and Hobart for that matter...).
