It was a wonderful stay at Turret House. Jenny, owner of the prenises, has great smiles and is attention to details of every bit of the room decor. The bed is very comfy. The towels are from Sheriden. Although we didn't get to use the kitchen and no hot breakfast, all else had made up to it. We would recommend this accommodation to anyone who plans to stay in Launceston for a night or 2. Thank you Jenny!

Beautiful house, conveniently located.
Jenny was a most pleasant and helpful hostess. The house was beautifully restored and the garden was lovely. Jenny was only too pleased to show us around the house and tell us about it's history. The breakfast was extremely generous and more than enough for two people. We would love to go back and spend some more time in Launceston.

Home away from home!
Small room but very cosy, clean, and convenient for those with a car. Host is very helpful and generously provided a great breakfast. WiFi signal is also good. Only wish the room was slightly more spacious which would be more convenient and comfortable.
