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.

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..
