A delightful cottage very well situated and equipped. Our group of five over 60’s ladies loved our short time at Ellie’s and I certainly would stay again when in the area, plus recommend to friends. Thank you to our host.

Location of property was perfect. A few minor maintenance issues that can be easily fixed. Owner has been notified. These did not detract from our four day stay.

Perfect location for getting to arts, music, cafes and restaurants.
Four friends had a great time renting this property. It was clean and comfortable and we had a pleasant walk through the park next door and along the esplanade into town for coffee and lunch. We visited the museum and art gallery as well as going to a TSO concert at nearby Woolmers Estate.

Very comfortable and clean
Everything was very good. The owners obviously undertake their own maintenance and cleaning of the property as it was to a very high standard. The only thing I would mention is to place a lock on the bathroom doors as we visited with one non-family member child.

Excellent property
This is a great 4 bedroom property for extended families with children who can safely manage steep stairs. Having the park across the road is a real benefit; the monkeys, the Design Centre and the Museum. The cottage is luxurious, comfortable and very well equipped for self caterers. The shopping centre is very close. The Hollybank zip line and bike tracks, 30 minutes away, were a very exciting experience. We had a fabulous time. Thank you.

Ellie's place is a fantastic accommodation, particularly if you're traveling with children, as it is located across the street from a fabulous park. Additionally, the house is equipped with a high chair, port-a-cot, toys, etc. It is a lovely antique house that is spacious and has everything you could need for a comfortable stay. Bronwyn, the owner, is just lovely and provided great information and tips for things to do during our stay in Tasmania. My only complaint is that the house was a little cold and we had trouble heating the downstairs, but we were quite warm and cozy in our rooms at night. Overall, the location could not have been more ideal, the house was lovely and we were sad that we weren't staying longer.

I organised a long weekend away for 6 adults as an end of year getaway and indulgence and that's exactly what Ellie's Place gave us. It was truly an indulgence. The decor was truly remarkable and the house was spacious enough for the lot of us. Comfortable and cozy. The location was ideal for us to see the sights of Launceston and the service was impeccable. Definitely a place to go back to and definitely recommend to others.
