This property is truly amazing its actual location is on a busy main street, however no traffic noise inside. Extremely clean, tidy, well setup, and loved property. The host has definitely added many very special touches to her property like a 2 litre bottle of fresh milk in the fridge and a great selection of tea and coffees better then home.

This was quite possibly the nicest accommodation we’ve ever stayed in! Lorraine had thought of everything, it was perfectly clean and incredibly comfortable, and very child-friendly. We really appreciated the little touches of breakfast provisions, instructions for all the appliances and the general homely feel, it was such a lovely stay.

Like a Warm Hug

Lorraine is an amazing host and Hawthorn House was a trip down memory lane. It was cozy and warm on arrival and Lorraine had left some little treats. (I wont ruin the surprise). The rooms are spacious and the beds cozy with electric blankets. The kitchen is well stocked and we appreciated milk already in the fridge so we could have a cuppa with real milk when we arrived! Its the little things that make this accomodation awesome. Hawthorn House is walking distance to UTAS (York Park) and some yummy breakfast options including a French Patisserie. We had a ball and our beloved Hawks had a big win. We will be back! Thanks Lorraine!

Great stay

Great location for the football at UTAS Stadium. Very clean and plenty of room for 4 adults. Would definitely recommend this place, especially if you’re going to the football, as it’s only a 700m flat walk to the ground..

Gorgeous Old House!

The host was very accommodating as we arrived in Tasmania in the evening. Such a beautiful old cottage style house. Off road parking and close enough to Launceston and also the Uni in Newnham. Wish I'd been able to stay longer!
