This was a lovely place to stay and immediately felt welcoming and comfortable. Everything was clean, well organised, and clearly thought through, which made the stay easy and stress-free. It had all the essentials we needed and more, and we really enjoyed our time here.We’d happily choose this place again and would recommend it to others.
A very comfortable stay. Great selection of kitchen appliances. The toys made it enjoyable for all. Scenic location in a quiet neighbourhood.Lots of spare blankets etc
Plenty room to accommodate 11 to 12 adults. Chris (host) was so helpful on anything from ahead of checking in to adding extra adult without hesitation. Thank you Chris for immediate replies through emails and letting my family and I to enjoy your beautiful property. I highly recommend this property for large families excellent.
It was such a huge and beautiful house with wonderful views and surrounding. Everyone was impressed and had a great stay. Would definitely recommend this to anyone who are coming to Launceston. :)
Gorgeous location, spacious spotless-clean home with many thoughtful details; stunning views over mountains and paddocks with sunlight filtering in. Property manager was quick to respond and beyond hospitable, going above and beyond to accommodate our needs. Would love to stay again for our next visit!
Everything about this property is perfect. Exactly as described. Very well located, 10 min drive from the airport. Beds were very comfy, everything needed for the stay was provided. 10/10, will stay here again!
Beautiful house in a wonderful location. The host Chris was a pleasure to deal with. There were 6 ladies staying and we were out everyday touring everyday for a week, to come back to the house was just blissful. Could not fault anything .
We came to Tasmania for a wedding and we had our family, my sisters family and our Dad all stay here. It was wonderful! There was something for all ages of kids. The littles liked the toys, the teens enjoyed the games room and the adults loved sitting outside soaking up the sun and beautiful view. The VRBO had everything we needed. All of us, including all the kids, would stay here again and would recommend to anyone!
House was perfect for a family, can even fit a large family. Plenty of beds and space. Billiards table was great. Nice and quiet location but not far from the main roads / highways. Highly recommend. Owners / managers very easy to deal with. Super simple check-in.
The property was very clean and nice but there were just a few things wrong with the games room and the bathroom with the bath.
The snooker table was riped which I was told but it was a bit worse than I thought. The foolsball table was broken. The rowing machine one of the foot stays was broken and the hand held shower spray was leaking from the back but overal the stay was very nice. O just one more thing the internet was very very slow.
Communication with the Host was fantastic. Every question or request was addressed.The home was perfect for our Family gathering. Our only problem was we didn't stay long enough lol next time we'll do x3 nights.
Beautiful house. good for families or groups to stay.
We really enjoyed our stay on this property, close to the city and other attractive places. Love to come back to this property next time on our trip again in Tasmania.
