"While the views from its verandahs over Launceston are breathtaking, the interiors and ambiance are even more so. The house throughout is liberally furnished with French antiques and richly coloured fabrics and finishes. The overall effect when combined with Hargate's warm and polished service, will quite likely give you ideas above your station."

Vacations & Travel Magazine

"There are three rooms in Hargate, a refined guesthouse whose owners have borrowed from the playbook of the Milestone Hotel in London. Smartly servicing a guest's obscure whim may be a holy grail for both, but Hargate has another speciality.... the upmarket guesthouse bulges with Louis 16th antiques ... almost everywhere you gaze is a piece shipped from France."
