Everything and much more

Two great nights at Topiary Haven (should be “Heaven”) was the best possible way to start our Tasmanian holiday. The host was very friendly, the place was absolutely spotless, and had everything we needed and more. It’s a great spot, close to the city and Cataract Gorge - but also a great place to relax in. Definitely THE place to stay in Launceston- we will be back!

Lovely Launceston

Beautiful little space for a couple and child. We only had one night here but you could easily spend weeks here with all the thoughtful additions Diana has put into her guest accommodation. A small walk through a beautiful garden leads you to your accommodation which is of high quality fit out. Location is great just 5 minutes from the city centre and is very close to the gorge and other attractions. The included breakfast was great with fresh local ingredients and really set us up for the day. Loved the stay.

Superb Accomodation

We could not fault the Topiary Haven Apartment for superior comfort, space, inclusions, ambiance, decor, location and gracious hosts. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend this apartment to anyone wanting to stay in Launceston. The lovely breakfast hamper was also an excellent inclusion. We did not want to leave.
Response from VrboOwner on 30 Mar, 2020
Thank you for the lovely review you submitted for Topiary Haven and your recommendation of our property. Very much appreciated ! Most importantly, is that you found the property comfortable with a nice ambience and enjoyed the extra inclusions provided ( breakfast hamper ). Nothing better to arrive at your accommodation, have a 'cuppa ' and relax after a car trip. Also, hope you left with fond memories of Tassie and Topiary Haven and that if you return for a visit to Launceston in the future, you will choose to stay at T/ H again. Thanking you, Diana & Barry
