The property was very clean and nice but there were just a few things wrong with the games room and the bathroom with the bath. The snooker table was riped which I was told but it was a bit worse than I thought. The foolsball table was broken. The rowing machine one of the foot stays was broken and the hand held shower spray was leaking from the back but overal the stay was very nice. O just one more thing the internet was very very slow.

It’s a pool table. We booked this accommodation over the weekend My son was getting married in Launceston. I was looking forward to a quiet night playing pool with my boys before the wedding but was notified it was damaged only 12 hours before check in. We also chose this house for parking but a tree had blown down in a storm covering the driveway. The tree was not cleaned up during our stay so using the driveway was difficult.

Staying here was beautiful, and the contact with the owner was fantastic throughout our stay. The home is well equipped with added thoughtful extras for the kids with the playroom area we're great. My kids were entertained for hours. We had one issue with the fridge, but the communication with the host Chris was fantastic, and understood what an incovenience it had been, and smoothed it over for us. Its a great location, with a lovely view. We had a great stay! Thanks again 😀

We came to Tasmania for a wedding and we had our family, my sisters family and our Dad all stay here. It was wonderful! There was something for all ages of kids. The littles liked the toys, the teens enjoyed the games room and the adults loved sitting outside soaking up the sun and beautiful view. The VRBO had everything we needed. All of us, including all the kids, would stay here again and would recommend to anyone!
