The house is fantastic - old world charm with modern conveniences. The location is great: 5 minutes drive to Cataract Gorge and central Launceston, with amazing scenic views across the river. It’s also a couple of minutes walk to a good cafe, a bakery and a small supermarket. Anne and Phillip are great hosts. They are very responsive and the check in and out arrangements were a breeze. There is also a house keeper downstairs, though we only saw her briefly before we checked out.
I would definitely recommend to anyone looking to spend a few days in Launceston. The only - minor - point to note is that the car parking is a little challenging as the lower deck - which is reserved for house guests - is quite tight and thus difficult to turn around in. We ended up reversing in most of the time, but that can be difficult as the traffic along the main road is relatively busy. However, this didn’t detract from our stay.
