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.

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.

Nice little place with a superb view

Very welcoming and helpful hosts, nice little cottage, which had everything we needed. Beautiful view over the Wetlands. The steep driveway was a bit of a challenge for our small rental car. Would definetely come again.

Lovely country cottage

Just outside Launceston in a beautiful setting. Beautifully presented with fresh fruit and freshly baked biscuits on arrival. Although the access Rd was a little bumpy the variety of wallabies seen each night more than made up for it. Hosts Paul and Janine were very friendly and gave good advice on where to eat.

Little Hideaway

A little gem out of the busyness of the city, yet well appointed. Beautiful views, that you share with chooks, farm animals and wildlife. Loved this little place. It was comfortable and had everything we needed for our two nights in the area. Special little touches as well. Thank you Janine and Paul.
