About this property

Island Views-Graham's Cottage Country Style

Country Style Cottage - relax and enjoy the view. Enjoy the country experience of Graham's Cottage, a delightful studio apartment catering for up to 2 adults. Enjoy Jan's home made shortbread on arrival.

Situated on 'Island Views' property, it is worth the drive up the hill to admire the magnificent view of Tamar Island on arrival at the cottage. Only 10 mins from the Launceston GPO and on the Tamar Valley wine route. Approximately 500 metres to Tamar Island Wetlands Centre, birdwatching and boardwalk to the island. A must for tourists.

Reverse cycle heat pump ensures a comfortable temperature all year round. Macracarpa pine kitchen benches are a stunning feature of the cottage. Bathroom includes both bath and shower.

Less than 15 minutes by car to Launceston GPO, Cataract Gorge and chair-lift, 10 minutes to Grindlewald Swiss Village. Graham's Cottage is ideally situated for visits to local wineries, restaurants, cafes and beaches.


From Janine and Paul: Our guest reviews both below and in our Cottage guest book have been fantastic. We would love to invite you to experience the peaceful, country cottage ambiance of Graham's Cottage when you arrive at our Island Views property.

Little Hideaway
A little gem out of the busyness of the city, yet well appointed. Beautiful views, that you share with chooks, farm animals and wildlife. Loved this little place. It was comfortable and had everything we needed for our two nights in the area. Special little touches as well. Thank you Janine and Paul.

A lovely cottage which we found very cosy and homely for our week long stay in Launceston. Freshly made shortbread and freshly picked flowers from the garden were left for us upon arrival. We would highly recommend this accomodation.

A Home Away from Home
A delightful and beautifully presented cottage with everything I needed for my stay. Beautiful view over the Tamar Valley wetlands. An ideal location to explore Launceston and the Tamar Valley. Janine and Paul were lovely hosts adding extra touches to make my stay a home away from home. I had a special request and they went above and beyond to accommodate it which I truly appreciated. I look forward to staying there again on my last night in Tasmania.

Hidden Gem
Scrupulously clean and well cared for it’s hard to fault this little hidden gem for a short stay less than 10 minutes out of Launceston. The elevated view over the Tamar wetlands is really worth the short drive to the little farm which also provides privacy and an escape from all road noise on the busy road below. Nothing we needed had been forgotten but Janine and Paul are amiable and welcoming and were on site happy to offer assistance if needed.
