Braemere House: Boutique Bed and Breakfast in Launie

I would definitely not call this a true bed and breakfast, but would definitely recommend that you pick this as your destination when coming to Launceston. Braemere really provided us with a great location, and made us feel more like we were staying with family, rather than a drab hotel. Also, at the same time we were treated to a semi stocked fridge, breakfast necessities, laundry facilities, and full cable with sports and movies!

All this, with the seclusion of the suburbs and a beautiful view of Launceston!

Unique Quality: Towel Warmers were a nice touch, and we liked how many tourism info packets were available to us in the living quarters!

Braemere House Bed & Breakfast: Great stay for 2 Couples!

This was a wonderful stay for the money! We spent only AU$130/night for 4 people to stay in the self-contained unit with a kitchen, two bedrooms with double beds, a big bathroom, a kitchen and dining table, a separate toilet & sink, a living room with couch, two recliners & tv, and even a washer and dryer with laundry detergent. Oh, and the price also included a basket full of breakfast foods - muffins and cereal and toast.

The owner was super nice when I called to book and very friendly as we checked in and left! If you are two couples traveling, this is a perfect place to stay!

Unique Quality: There was a lovely view out over the city of Launceston from the pretty gardens behind the unit - and it was basically private to the self-contained unit.

The TRC Lodge (formerly Rose Lodge): Launceston: Trapped in the 60s

NOV 2008 LATEST: Rose Lodge is no more. Time rushes everything by. The property is now renamed the TRC Lodge.

Review from 2001:
This is a B&B on the lower end.

My mates and I managed to grab the cabin which was good for 4 persons and came with refrigerator, microwave, toaster and a little garden at the back. Breakfast meant a packet of bread with jam and butter; nothing obstentatious.

It was actually a very nice stay, as the host was very kind though the furnishment and decoration in the cabin reminded us of the 60s! We even stumbled upon some games from that era which amused us no ends.

The owner was Joan Humphreys.

Unique Quality: Review from 2001:
That 60s feel!
