We had a lovely stay at Crystal Cottage. The location was great, close to the city and right near the stadium and restaurants and museum. The kids loved going to riverbend park which is a short drive as well as playing with the toys at the house. Unfortunately the lounge room heater stopped working while we stayed but Jo was easy to contact and bought around a heater for us to use. Would happily stay here again!

Thanks so much for your 10/10 review and for other future guests the aircon is not broken my electrician said the problem was past guests moving the settings, Welcome back next time 😊
Host was very welcoming & helpful. Property was excellent, cosy, comfortable, spacious & well appointed in a very homely style. Really felt like our home away from home. Thoroughly recommended & we were impressed. Great location too. Nearby Swamp Cafe (5 min walk) is also a standout.

I’m thrilled you guys enjoyed your stay, it was a pleasure to host you!
The house was homely and cosy with plenty of nice large beds. The property was flat, easy parking round the back and central location. Jo was lovely, welcoming and available to answer questions. Great place and very reasonably priced.
Great communication with Jo. Recommendations for evening meal at local venue which was excellent. Beautifully decorated cottage with quirky knick knacks. Great space, comfy beds and lounge space. Highly recommended

Thanks ☺️ for your kind words, welcome back anytime.
We were five older ladies in Launceston for a golf tournament. The cottage was well situated and well equipped. Clean and an abundance of all that is required.
Would stay there again.
Lovely homely feel in a great part if town close to the city centre. Comfortable, clean and relaxed vibe with plenty of room. Jo was a great host, checking in to ensure we had a great stay. Highly recommended.

Sandra was a great guest! Recommended to all!
Welcome back next time.
Lovely character cottage with easy access to Cataract Gorge and Launceston hub and amenities. Comfortable beds and everything we needed. Only thing to note, while property does have ‘no step access’, interior steps (3 steps) to bedrooms and living areas would make this property unsuitable for wheelchair access. Enjoyed our stay and would absolutely book and stay again. Great value
