Great stay
Great location for the football at UTAS Stadium. Very clean and plenty of room for 4 adults. Would definitely recommend this place, especially if you’re going to the football, as it’s only a 700m flat walk to the ground..

Gorgeous Old House!
The host was very accommodating as we arrived in Tasmania in the evening. Such a beautiful old cottage style house. Off road parking and close enough to Launceston and also the Uni in Newnham. Wish I'd been able to stay longer!

Superb House for a family stay
Hawthorn House was completely as advertised..beautifully clean and well appointed with lovely amenities. The house was close to everything in Launceston and the off street parking and security was excellent. The beds were comfortable and the house was warm and toasty when we arrived. The recommendations for local places to eat were helpful, the WIFI enough to please teenagers and a fully equipped laundry super helpful. We were really happy with our stay. We would return in a heartbeat and cannot recommend highly enough.

The best Home away from home
Arrived early, not a problem. Met Lorraine who was very helpful. The Home is just stunning. I call it a home not a house, you feel that this is your home, there was not one thing I could see that anybody could complain about. When we holiday in Tassie again, which we certainly will we will base ourselves at Hawthorn House. Thank you again Lorraine, this property exceeded all our expectations,
