Review of Topiary Haven
5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 26 Aug 2017via mobile
Diana and Barry have created the perfect retreat for people wanting to experience the best of Launceston and surrounds.

The villa is beautifully presented and luxuriously appointed.

The kitchen is well equipped and modern, which made cooking a breeze.

The pantry and fridge are well stocked with breakfast supplies and basic staples.

The bed was really comfortable and warm, the electric blanket had been preset for our arrival which was a nice touch.

Just a 5 minute drive to the CBD and a short 15 minute stroll to the picturesque Cataract Gorge, it is in a fantastic location.

The hosts also leave a great list of recommended eateries, bars and shops. They have thought of everything.

I couldn't recommend Topiary Haven high enough. We will spread the word. Outstanding.

Stayed at Topiary April 2017 and had a thoroughly lovely stay. Diana is a very thoughtful and warm host and has also put a lot of thought and empathy into putting together the accommodation. It is a self contained cottage in the back of a yard in a quiet street - so extremely peaceful and nice views out each window. The kitchen is extremely well equipped and spacious but Diana also offers a good list of local restaurants. Honestly the provisions that were supplied could have kept us fed for a couple of days and all of very high quality. The bedroom is spacious, airy and the bed very comfortable with a small but well laid out bathroom. Lots of great touches to make your stay comfortable. We didn't want to leave. Everything was immaculately spotless. Highly recommended and fantastic value for money!

Room tip: Only one cottage.

My husband and I stayed here with our 10month old son. The hostess, Diana, was very friendly and welcoming. The best breakfast hamper we have experienced! Very clean. All the amenities you could need (and more!). Great location close to attractions in Launceston. Highly recommend!

This lovely cottage is exceptionally well fitted out, equipped with a full suite of cooking items and enhanced by Diana's complimentary cheese platter and generous breakfast provisions. The cottage was clean to the highest standards, and an additional fold-away bed made ready for our teenage son.
The location is perfect; tucked away amongst lovingly tended gardens in a quiet neighbourhood, walking distance into town and to Cataract Gorge for the fit, or a short drive to any sightseeing location.
