We have stayed in many places around Australia and this house in Launceston is by far the best we have ever stayed at. It was cozy and warm and close to everything. Nothing has been left out in terms of comfort. My kids were in tears when we left and one just asked, ‘Daddy can we please stay at that house the next time we are in Launceston?’ ##### Anthony N.

Reviewer Comments: It’s such a delight to stay here. It feels like a warm hug. Has everything you need while you’re away from home. I’m a Queenslander and I’m not great with the cold, so it’s always a roll of the dice with staying in some homes in case they are draughty but not this funky cottage. Snug as a bug. Comfy beds. Fabulous bathrooms! Has a washing machine but no dryer. Fully equipped kitchen. On site parking. Fairly quiet neighbourhood despite being on a Main Street. Neighbours dog is a bit annoying but only because I have a neighbour at home whose dog barks a fair bit too but it was fine - it’s just bored. Can’t wait to stay here again some time! ##### Lisa T. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Daniel G. 9 Sept 2024 #### Well Equipped and Located Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Home had everything needed for a stay (including cooking requirements) and was conveniently located (close to highways/shops/food/local sights). Beds and pillows were clean and comfy, good quality linen and towels. Good selection of games, books and magazines. The clean before we entered wasn't that great, looked like the floor had been swept but not vacuumed (found citrus seeds (think was lemon), dried peas and a fair bit of fluff in the corners). Council collection rubbish bins were particularly manky, with items in the organics and recycle bin that clearly didn't belong there and had clearly been there for some time, obviously the cleaner never checks. No window coverings on the upstairs bathroom was odd - clear view through a clear window straight to the loo. Given Launceston weather - the laundry needs a clothes dryer, having to hang clothes around the place inside is never fun, the clothes airer helped but I think a dryer is a must for Launceston. Nonetheless all-in-all would recommend and stay again. ##### Daniel G. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels in Hoole](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hoole-Hotels.d177968.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Resol Hotel Trinity Osaka](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Osaka-Hotels-Resol-Hotel-Trinity-Osaka.h44224601.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Whitehall](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Whitehall-Hotels.0-l6251524-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Address Connolly](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dublin-Hotels-The-Address-Connolly.h64352.Hotel-Information) > > [Fabulous Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rome-Hotels-Fabulous-Village.h4163290.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Vis](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dubrovnik-Hotels-Hotel-Vis.h1599992.Hotel-Information) > > [Acacia Palace](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ragusa-Hotels-Acacia-Palace.h34095703.Hotel-Information) > > [Patterdale Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Penrith-Hotels-Patterdale-Hotel.h4581032.Hotel-Information) > > [The LaLiT New Delhi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Delhi-Hotels-The-LaLiT-New-Delhi.h437268.Hotel-Information) > > [Altis Prime Hotel de Apartamentos](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lisbon-District-Hotels-Altis-Prime-Hotel-De-Apartamentos.h3855907.Hotel-Information) > > [7Pines Resort Sardinia-A Destination By Hyatt](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Arzachena-Hotels-7Pines-Resort-Sardinia-A-Destination-By-Hyatt.h74987644.Hotel-Information) > > [Vrissiana Boutique Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Larnaca-Hotels-Vrissiana-Beach-Hotel.h8808897.Hotel-Information) > > [Caravan Parks Málaga Province](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Malaga-Province-Caravan-Parks.d603258-aaCaravanParks.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Travelodge Hotel Hobart](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hobart-Hotels-Travelodge-Hotel-Hobart.h997617.Hotel-Information) > > [Absolute Athens Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Athens-Hotels-Absolute-Athens-Apartments.h44333964.Hotel-Information) > > [Sol Costa Daurada](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Salou-Hotels-Sol-Costa-Daurada.h900302.Hotel-Information) > > [Sotogrande Neopolitan Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manila-Hotels-Sotogrande-Neopolitan-Hotel.h45837642.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Açores Lisboa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lisbon-District-Hotels-Hotel-Acores-Lisboa.h1210727.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Gatwick (LGW) to Penzance (LEQ)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lgw/leq/london-to-lands-end) > > [Flights from Larnaca (LCA) to Barcelona (BCN)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lca/bcn/larnaca-to-barcelona) > > [easyJet Bristol (BRS) to Newcastle-upon-Tyne (NCL) flights](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flight-routes/easyjet-from-bristol-intl-to-newcastle-intl/u2/brs/ncl) ### Cars > [Car hire in Silves](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Compare-Cheap-Car-Hire-In-Silves.d6025649.Car-Hire-Guide) ### Activities > [Things to do in Scala](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Scala.d6122974.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Mondello](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Mondello.d6144351.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Kemer Merkez Bati Public Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kemer-Merkez-Bati-Public-Beach-Turkiye.d6347760.Attraction) > > [Jersey Shore Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jersey-Shore.d6056759.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [Tokyo Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo.d179900.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### General > [Visit Haverfordwest](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Haverfordwest.dx182857)
