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.

Staying here was beautiful, and the contact with the owner was fantastic throughout our stay. The home is well equipped with added thoughtful extras for the kids with the playroom area we're great. My kids were entertained for hours. We had one issue with the fridge, but the communication with the host Chris was fantastic, and understood what an incovenience it had been, and smoothed it over for us. Its a great location, with a lovely view. We had a great stay! Thanks again 😀

Great spot with amazing view
We had a fantastic stay with 10 of us- mini family reunion. House was a great size with all we needed. My brother in law jokingly said there was no need for a TV as we were too busy enjoying the view. Chris was amazing to deal with and very prompt with replying to messages!

Quiet location close to city
Very impressed with the house itself, its cleanliness, it has plenty of room and the games room with full size pool table was great fun. It is in a very quiet neighbourhood which initially seemed to be further out from Launceston's CBD that in actually was. A super easy and quick to drive into the city. I definitely recommend this house. Thanks Chris
