Clean, warm and a lovely stay conveniently located, but just remember to keep an eye out for the toothpaste green coloured house with the big bushes.The WIFI was a little weak, but wasn't a necessity when I was there.Shower was perfect temperature and the beds were comfy. Plenty of parking too.

We were in Launnie for a Kid's basketball tournament and we had people saying they were going to stay with us, then they weren't then others were and we mucked our host around altering bookings right up to the last day and nothing was too much hassle for her. Lorraine, you made everything so simple. Thank you. The house was immaculate, warm, stocked with every amenity and it truly felt like home. Apart from coming second in the tournament iot was a great couple of days.

This was our second stay at Hawthorn House and it is still by far the best home away from home we have ever stayed in! Lorraine is an amazing host and provides everything you need to have a fantastic stay- from the smallest things like boxes of tissues, and information pamphlets, to welcoming treats, electric blankets on the beds and plentiful towels etc. I cannot fault anything - the house was spotless, the kitchen well stocked with basic supplies and plenty of crockery etc, parking off the street behind the house was extremely helpful for us and the backyard is large and spacious. Lorraine was very accommodating regarding our check in and check out times and her communication is great. I highly recommend Hawthorn House in Invermay to anyone visiting Launceston as it is in a great location and a wonderful place to stay.

Hawthorn House was a beautiful house to stay in while our family of four explored Launceston. The house was incredibly clean and well stocked and had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay. Lorraine was an excellent host. She was great at communicating and even welcomed us with some milk and biscuits on arrival. Thank you again Lorraine
