Absolutely amazing - so interesting and so well displayed. Go on day 1 of your stay in Stanley as it will help you understand the rest of the beautiful town. So much history and easy to read information. We ended up there for about 2 hours! I’m not usually one to read everything in museums but I did this time. It was so impressively done up.

Absolutely brilliant!

Fabulous en-suite and sitting room accomodation with full views over Launceston. Comfy king bed with a delicious breakfast. Lovely garden sitting area with BBQ and trees full of fruit. Fergus really took care of us!

Lovely stay in this beautifully renovated period home

Love this bed and breakfast , beautifully decorated with all kinds of cushions and throws. 

We had the William Henty suite which got a separate but private bathroom. We wish to have chosen another room yet this was the last available room. We did expect some inconvenience, yet we were more concern if we cause any noise when we were heading to the bathroom at night.  Aside from the separated bathroom, other than that the room is prefect, our window is accessible to the balcony (for all) and most of time, we simply juz owned it ourselves for a glass of wine and simple dinner 

Simple breakfast but definitely freshly made . 

We booked via Agoda so we got problem in getting the instruction of key collection (which appeared to be unreadable message. We were lucky to meet Fergus (kind and hospitable) by the time we arrived. Do make sure u check your mail before your arrival. 

Parking should not be a problem, with a  car park entertaining around 6 cars maybe , and roadside parking is also available. 

William Henty Suite- homey and cozy

We stayed two nights over Christmas time in Highfield House. It is very homy and comfortable. We enjoyed sitting room setting up beautifully by the owner as well as our own room. Love the green plants throughout the house and the garden. The scents in the house as well as our room is very pleasant and beautiful. We went to city park and had a picnic on the Christmas day using the basket and blanket provided by Highfield House. It is very thoughtful there were picnic utensils provided in the basket, and they are not plastics. Highfield House is also close to everything you would like in Launceston.

Very thoughtful arrangements in Highfield House

Fergus is a real gent and the accomodation was awesome.  The breakfast may not be hot (a criticism by others) but it was high quality, local and fresh. 
The rooms were spacious, impeccable clean and my only criticism would be that they didn’t replace the delicious Tasmanian shortbread in the minibar, but am sure they would have if asked.
I would say this is one of the finest B&B’s I’ve ever stayed in. I like the way that there is no owner on site but they are easily accessible.

Highly recommend highfield house

We booked the Highfield room as it had a bath and it totally surpassed our expectations. We arrived on a cold winter evening and the room had been heated with lights on ready for us. Beautiful room with gorgeous bay window with views over the city, separate sitting room with tea/coffee facilities and lovely very clean bathroom. Super comfortable bed with really warm duvet, didn’t even need to use the electric blankets on the -1 degree night! great balcony to sit and watch the city below / sunset over the Hills with a cup of tea. Breakfast was lovely - freshly cooked soft boiled eggs, toast, cheese, ham, fruit, cereals, yoghurt etc and great tea & coffee. Fergus was a fantastic host. 

Outstanding 

My sister and I stayed for our last night of our Food & Wine Trail trip.  We were surprisingly the only guests that night which made no difference to the level of service we received.  We were upgraded to the Highfield suite which was absolutely beautiful and had the most magnificent views of Launceston. Our innkeeper was Fergus and he prepared our breakfast and helped with our bags.  What a lovely place - I  hope you do well and thank you to Fergus for your hospitality and service!

Last night in Tassie

We had a lovely stay at Highfield House, a gorgeous old 2 story building with beautifully decorate rooms. The views over Launcestion from the balcony are stunning and there is plenty of room to relax with chairs and bean bags available.
Our room was comfortable with a luxurious bed, loads of natural light and a fridge with local delights. 
The breakfast included a great spread of fresh fruit, eggs, meats, cheeses, spread and crusty bread. Fergus was a delight and so welcoming! We enjoyed breakfast in the courtyard.
Our room was the only one without an ensuite, which was not a problem for us, but to avoid disappointment, read the room descriptions thoroughly on their website or call them direct. 
My favourite part of Highfield was the character of the property. Each room had been styled beautifully and was very modern and grand. Loved it, will stay again!

Beautiful Boutique Accommodation

Having stayed in B&Bs all over the world, this is the best we have been in.  A wonderful old house which is cared for, beautifully furnished and accessorised. The location high on the edge of Launceston is great for walking the city. The rooms are spacious, homely, and the bathrooms very luxurious. Staff were in touch and available, and Fergus (the innkeeper) is a true gentleman. Breakfast, as with the bed, was beyond expectations. Parking on site easy and secure. 

Outstanding in Everyway

Lovely attention to detail in interior of a lovely restored building. Wonderful views of the city and loved staying in the amazing Highfield room - large bedroom, lovely sitting room and calming bathroom. Exceptionally clean and comfortable. Breakfast sufficient in well appointed room - could get cosy if everyone came to breakfast at same time. Noisy at night with outside town and traffic noises.
