We expect to be away for 6 to 8 weeks but have made no firm dates as yet . We are in a central position and the house is situated in a parklike garden and very close to all conveniences . Devonport is a small city with a ferry running to Melbourne each day . It is about an hours drive to Launceston and Cradle mountain . Our house is 100 years old but it is in good condition & has all modern amenities.
