Reviewer Comments: Mountain View Delight is all you think it to be from its title. Beautifully situated above Launceston with amazing views out to the mountains. Everything about this home is wonderful and very thoughtful. Comfortable beds, ample towels, wonderfully warm and welcoming. Books & games - small details but thoughtful. Everything you need in the kitchen to cook your own meals as well as supplies such as coffee and sugar. Washing machine and laundry supplies were a godsend! Beautifully maintained and pretty garden I wandered around. Walking distance to IGA and not too far from a great little cafe. The gorgeous Cataract Gorge is very close by.I was sad to leave but hopeful in knowing I will definitely be back! Thank you Donna from TAG and whoever owns this home, thank you - it’s very beautiful! ##### Lisa T.
