Alice's Cottages and Spa Hideaways have 6 Self-Contained 4 Star Colonial Cottages in the Centre of Launceston.

Close to the Cataract Gorge, Tamar River Cruises and the Seaport Restaurants.

A wickedly wonderful romantic retreat await lovers in one of Alice’s Spa Hideaways tucked away in the historic heart of Launceston. It’s hard to choose from the delightful cottages, each decorated with its individual theme enhanced by music, masquerade and magic!

Roaring log fires and bubbling spas warm the bodies and stir the passion whilst being cocooned in a different world with all the modern comforts. Step through the door of Camelot and enter a fairytale, medieval experience of King Arthur complete with authentic helmets and swords. Swathes of creamy material and candlelight wrap the French Boudoir with intimacy and seductiveness. Pamper yourself in the spacious spa or relax on the generous sofa or the four poster bed in the Irish Colonial Cottage. Be transported to another time while pottering around amongst the memorabilia of the Alice’s Cottages: Welsh, English or Scottish.

Indulge yourselves, relax and discover the pleasures of unhurried love in a secluded hideaway. Launceston’s finest restaurants and fabulous Cataract Gorge are a pleasant stroll away, or you may decide to prepare and enjoy dinner in the intimacy of your own fireside. Saviour the complimentary bedtime port, chocolate truffles, brewed coffee and sweet treats which all just tops a tremendous experience.
