Lovely front garden, nice quiet location. Good location for sorounding wineries. Over all OK but a few small things could have been better. Needs a new ironing board cover. My son was not happy that the lack of padding on the board left a patten of the board on his good shirt, I had to use a towel over the board for my clothes, the cover is also rather stained. There was no nonslip mat in the ensuite shower, my partner had to use the hand towel to stand on as base was slippery. Few cobwebs and spiders in corners. Needs a few new pillows as some where rather lumpy. Also needs a night light at top of the stairs to remind you of the different floor level when going from bedroom to the bathroom during the night (son forgot about it and tripped) Was disapointed at the lack of eating facilities in the area for daytime dining, had to travel into Launceston for breakfast. Im not sure I would stay again, if so then would only be because its a good size for family groups and is close to the Launceston airport.

We stayed for a week with our family - it was peaceful clean comfortable and just could not have been better - thanks for a wonderful week. The upstairs and downstairs sleeping areas worked so well to give some separate space to the combined family. Everything had been thoughtfully done. We really enjoyed it. Thanks so much.

Van Dieman's Cottage is in a quiet location just out of Evandale. It is really close to Launceston Airport. The cottage has plenty of room and even luxurious spa bath in the upstairs bathroom. Condiments were provided in the kitchen. Upstairs bedroom was a good location to try and see an aurora.

We absolutely loved Van Diemens Cottage. Our family of 6 had plenty of space, the teens loved the bedroom options. Communication with hosts was excellent. Beautiful village location, with the general store an easy walk and Launceston not too far for eating out and more. Highly recommend.

Clean, comfortable, homely. We felt very welcome as soon as we walked thru the door. A very clean and comfortable home that suited all 7 of us perfectly. Would not change a thing, just perfect. I would actually rate this a 20/10 if I could..
