I enjoyed a 2 night stay at Catherine's cottage as I was moving house. This was a perfect self-contained little cottage that met my needs very well. Communication with Catherine from the time of booking to departure was pleasant and prompt, and she was very accommodating in meeting one of my special requests. As a local of Longford, I think the positioning of the cottage suits tourist travellers, as it is well situated close enough to Launceston , yet getting one on the road quickly to other areas in Northern Tasmania and down to Hobart. I had read previous reviews and was a little concerned about the cooking facilities, as I like to self cater. However, I found there to be ample cooking facilities to prepare meals that do not require a stove-stop of oven. There is a microwave and a BBQ outside, and the local IGA has a vast array of excellent produce and pre-prepared meals that suit a traveller staying here for several days. I would highly recommend this cottage.
