Editor's Choice - Hargate
Launceston,
North Tasmania,
Tasmania
By Lisa Monk
When it comes to things to see and do, and areas of immense natural beauty, Tasmania has more than its fair share… and Launceston certainly punches above its weight with so many sights to see, things to do, and experiences to enjoy and indulge in. Known as ‘The Valley of the Senses’ thanks to the many flowers of the nearby Cataract Gorge, Launceston also has myriad restaurants, cafes and gourmet outlets to further tempt your senses. It is the third oldest city in Australia, behind Sydney and Hobart and has magnificent examples of Victorian and Georgian architecture, giving the city a mellow sense of history. Hargate sits very comfortably in Launceston, being a heritage listed Queen Anne Federation home built between 1900 and 1903. It is a short drive from t...

Review - Westbury Gingerbread Cottages
Tasmania
By Penny Parsons
52 William Street Westbury, Northern Tasmania These historic and character-filled cottages are the perfect place to stay as you sample the delights of northern Tasmania. Overall rating?

The cottages are filled with antiques and memorabilia of times past. Accommodation ...
