About this property

Island Views-Graham's Cottage Country Style

Country Style Cottage - relax and enjoy the view. Enjoy the country experience of Graham's Cottage, a delightful studio apartment catering for up to 2 adults. Enjoy Jan's home made shortbread on arrival.

Situated on 'Island Views' property, it is worth the drive up the hill to admire the magnificent view of Tamar Island on arrival at the cottage. Only 10 mins from the Launceston GPO and on the Tamar Valley wine route. Approximately 500 metres to Tamar Island Wetlands Centre, birdwatching and boardwalk to the island. A must for tourists.

Reverse cycle heat pump ensures a comfortable temperature all year round. Macracarpa pine kitchen benches are a stunning feature of the cottage. Bathroom includes both bath and shower.

Less than 15 minutes by car to Launceston GPO, Cataract Gorge and chair-lift, 10 minutes to Grindlewald Swiss Village. Graham's Cottage is ideally situated for visits to local wineries, restaurants, cafes and beaches.


From Janine and Paul: Our guest reviews both below and in our Cottage guest book have been fantastic. We would love to invite you to experience the peaceful, country cottage ambiance of Graham's Cottage when you arrive at our Island Views property.

Graham's Cottage was comfortable, well-equipped and had a beautiful view of the Tamar Wetlands. Being above and off the main road, it was peaceful and quiet. We would definitely stay again. Janine's shortbread were a treat and the bouquet of fresh-from-the-garden herbs helped season one of our dinners. Thank you Janine and Paul!

Quaint little cottage. Very comfy and cosy. Nice hot shower and water pressure. The bed was a little small for us and the cooking facilities a bit basic if staying for awhile. The location was lovely and quiet. Janine's homemade shortbread biscuits were a lovely touch.
