We have just spent two nights at Shearwater Cottages and cannot find a fault with this little gem other than quite a firm bed, but thats a personal choice and there is no air conditioning. It has been very warm in Tasmania recently and a pedistal fan was put in the room, thats probably more comfortable than air con anyway.... More

We stayed in one of the cottages for 2 nights in January. The accommodation is located close to the main shopping area and not too far from the beach. The cottages are set back from the road. There are 6 cottages and are very well maintained by the owners, who are helpful and friendly. Our room was large with a... More

Arrived off the ferry and found Shearwater Cottages easy and owners upon arrival were fantastic. Beautiful studio with everything you could possibly need or want. Only regret was we could only stay one night. If we ever get back to Tassie we will certainly stay longer. Thanks for everything

Delightful, very clean and tidy, studio apartment, with double, 2 singles and sofa bed, could have slept 6 in comfort, though only two of us. Small manicured garden, strategically set out so you don't notice the neighbours. BBQ area with all the sauces and extras you might need. On site parking, with very short walk to shops, country club and... More

We stayed at the Cottages after Christmas on the last leg of our Tasmanian Christmas break and after the usual and unexpected stresses of family Christmas, this was a wonderful, restful haven, even if only for one night. The studio room we stayed in was well equipped with everything you could need and would normally have at home. Lovely decor,... More

These cottages are an absolute delight. Clean, comfortable and convenient. We stayed there in September and made them a base from which to visit the north coast of Tasmania. If we had known just how good they were, we would have stayed there longer rather than staying some of the time in Launceston as well. Highly recommended.

The hosts Margi and Geoff were perfect hosts. We used the bbq which was perfectly clean. Our room was pleasantly clean. The kitchenette facilities were as good as any ktichen in an apartment. It was convenient and would have stayed an extra 3 days if they had had availabilty. Word of advice book early!!!!
