The Gingerbread Cottage

Not just a room -
a complete colonial cottage for your exclusive use!.

The Gingerbread Cottage was built 110 years ago and 15km from Westbury. It was a two room farm labourer's cottage in the township of Whitemore when Ruth and Colin Clarke, antique dealers in Westbury, decided to purchase and relocate it to a site adjacent to their antique store.

During the restoration they sourced various salvers of old buildings to construct the kitchen, bathroom/laundry and verandahs in keeping with the original part of the cottage. In 1997 The Gingerbread Cottage won a Statewide award from the "Keep Australia Beautiful Council" for the Best Cultural/Heritage Preservation.

The Gingerbread Cottage features a queen bedroom and loungeroom with a cosy gas log fire.

Rates include a selection of teas and coffees, and homebaked "goodies" to welcome you on your arrival.

There is also the option on the booking page to add provisions for a full breakfast: bacon, eggs, tomatoes, cereals, juice, tea, plunger coffee, home baked bread, spreads and homemade jams, which will be replenished each day..
