Room Style: GINGERBREAD COTTAGE
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 double bedroom and loungeroom with a cosy gas log fire.
