Just home from a lovely stay in Aphrodite, which is actually a gorgeous old house built in 1910 and situated at the top of a small hill (the term "cottage" does not do it justice!). It has a master bedroom, dining room, lounge room (with piano, record player, tv, and a wall of windows overlooking Launceston), kitchen, bathroom and small... More

I surprised my partner with a night away at Alice's Spa Hideaway Cottages. It more than lived up to expectations - i was a little unsure going by the pictures on the websites. The private, spacious rooms with it's own parking spot was everything and more you could want for a very romantic night away with a loved one. I... More

The owners of Alice's clearly care about what they do, and they do it well. We had two nights here when in Launceston and although the decor wasn't really my taste, it was as advertised, and perfect in every other way. There are so many little inclusions that you don't get anywhere else (complimentary port, homemade shortbread and chocolates and... More

So central and Aphordites house is stunning. Always wanted to bathe in a mirrored bathroom with satin lined ceiling and chandlier. Everything you require is in house and you can play old records in a lovely sitting room complete with window seat. Very comfortable.

We have stayed there twice and on both occassions the owners have been friendly and welcoming . Great breakfast provisions and well equipped kitchen. Loved all the little extras, port chocolates, etc. The bathrooms are large with fabulous spa baths and beds are very comfortable. Cottages have small safe yards which can be enclosed for pets. Good value and close... More

My wife and I stayed here for 8 nights and we found The English Cottage very homely and comfortable. Loved the breakfast tray and newspaper provided daily. The old English theme was very relevant to the 1800's including the front door key. Quiet and convenient, easy stroll to CBD, hosts Rob and Louise are very efficient and enjoy what they... More

My partner and I stayed here on the eve and night of our wedding. My bridesmaids and I got ready in the cottage the day of the wedding. We stayed in the 'Aphrodite Cottage' which is basically an old house filled with beautiful furniture. Some of the decor was a bit outrageous (e.g. cherubs on the ceiling of the master... More

We have just spent 7 nights at Alice's. Our friends were in the Irish Cottage and we stayed in the English Cottage. We were all impressed with the Cottage decor and furnishing. Rob & Louise ensure all cottages have little extras such as hearty breakfast with coffee plunger and tea etc, port and chocolates, fruit and afternoon tea (for the... More

We stayed in the Irish cottage for two nights and it was really lovely. The decor was really nice and the bed was very comfortable. Everything we needed was there. We had a malfunction with the shower on the first night but worked it out after that and there were no problems with getting fresh towels. We traveled with friends... More
