About this property
Secret Garden Cottage - Cafe Strip, Launceston
This hidden gem is a renovated home away from home with everything you need for your stay. There are two bedrooms at the front and a large master with doors opening into the garden at the rear. Plenty of natural light and new large reverse cycle air conditioner. Wood fire, bathroom floor heating and electric blankets on beds for the colder months!
The walk to Launceston's attractions and Charles Cafe Strip is a short easy stroll.
Meet the local community comprised mostly of medical professionals and support staff at the nearby hospitals and clinics
Support local businesses such as the Green Grocer who stock local produce and fresh juices or try Pasta Merchant with pasta and gelato made inhouse!
In 100 metres from the cottage you will find gourmet burgers (try the onion rings), sushi (fresh orders delivered by train) - at #1 ranked Japanese restaurant, all day breakfast, mediterranean food, great pub meals and sweet treats!
Fast Wifi, plenty of charging points for electronics and a workspace.
Extras include coffee machine, milk frother, coffee plunger, electric wok, multi cooker, egg cooker, sandwich press, microwave and food basics to get you started!
Carparking included!

About the host
Hosted by Karen
Traveller and 5* trusted house sitter.
Took a little over a year travelling in Europe, home schooling, looking after homes and pets so their owners could run marathons, adopt their son, surprise an aunt in Oz on her 80th, go to a baptism, have a holiday from managing their bnb, attend a wedding, celebrate an anniversary, catch up with an old friend, travel with loved ones, take their first flight and more.
Thoroughly enjoy hosting and love my Launceston life.

Why they chose this property
The Charles Cafe Strip is foodie heaven and there are supermarkets all a short walk away. The Cottage is single level and heritage listed. Positioned away from main roads and traffic, giving privacy but access to everything in Launceston area. There is a toy store on the corner with things for every age and interest. Princes Square is a short walk and coffee shops to suit every taste.
What makes this property unique
Location, location, location. Attention to detail. I truly want you to have a great time at the Secret Garden Cottage.
