Despina’s accommodation was spotlessly clean, had all the cooking facilities you need (which is nice when you’re on holidays and not always available at the various places you stay at), communication was excellent and overall very peaceful, spacious and comfortable - just what I needed after a busy six days of travelling prior.
Smithton is a convenient location to a variety of attractions and much cheaper to stay in than Stanley.
It’s about 20 minutes to Stanley which is a must see destination with The Nut, beautiful beaches, historic buildings, interesting walks and shops.
Travellers from Smithton to Launceston should consider stopping off at Beach Harbour and then taking the coastal road to Table Cape and onto Wynyard - you must stop off at Kymmies Fish and Chips on the Old Bass Highway for the most delicious flake - order takeaway and have your meal just a kilometre away overlooking the beautiful beach.
Overall totally recommended.
