Gingerbread Cottage was very well located in the historic village of Westbury. An authentically historic cottage, full of character and equipped with all facilities we needed. The daily treats of muffins and cake were a lovely touch.

Old cottage, self catering not a B&B
Wobbly front step, dirty and dusty in all rooms.
Fully of old items that did not add to the charm.
Dark and some of the lights did not work.
The bed was awful and needs replacing as it was leaning to one side .
All the taps leaked and sink leaked.
Needs a lot of work to be comfortable.
Glad I was only there for one night.
Very expensive at $220 a night.
Upside free washing machine and dryer

We enjoyed staying in The Old Bakehouse because it was convenient to our travels. The entire procedure was easy and we found Amanda to be responsive to our messages.
Check in and out was a breeze and we found the breakfast a welcome addition to our stay.

Charming cottage in Westbury

We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 night stay at Appletree Cottage. Check in was very smooth and it was a lovely touch to arrive to freshly baked bread and treats left for us. Beautiful quiet location to explore the surrounding sights. We loved the village feel of Westbury and would definitely stay again. Thanks so much for our wonderful time!

We booked the 3 bedroom cottage,when we arrived it was already occupied.We were then given the two bed cottage which wasn't suitable for 7 people.
The kids slept on the loungroom floor.The walls,ceiling and windows were dirty with spider webs hanging from the roof.The toilet leaked around the base and the shower leaked all over the bathroom floor.The yard was ankle deep in leaves.We had to accept this because our only option was to go home but we would never book this place again.

The lastminute booking confirmation stated \"Full Breakfast\" included but in reality it was cereal, bread, jam, eggs & sandwich ham that you had to prepare yourself and you had to wash and put away all dishes & clean up after yourself (no dishwasher). Pepper was provided but unfortunately for us no salt. Couldn't drink the milk provided as it wasn't lactose free.
Pipes were noisy.
Free wifi was great. Free parking was good but may be difficult for oversize vehicles. Towels were nice.
Walking distance to town but limited dinner options (only option was pub or takeaway kebab).
Bed was comfortable but had to crawl under bed to mess around with extension cords etc to plug in electric blanket.
We don't watch TV but others may be disappointed that the TV is very small.

Staying at Westbury Gingerbread Cottages was like tv's 'Escape to the Country'. So much character and charm, and so homely. Breakfasts (included) were great - bacon and eggs, home-made bread. Memorably good place to stay and highly recommended.

We stayed in the heritage bungalow. When we booked it, we were under the impression that it was close to Launceston, but it wasnt.

It was clean but not to a hotel standard. There was a bad smell in the lounge room and at the front of the property. The hot water was too hot (not sure if the temperature is set to a safe temp, so could easily get burnt).

As its listed as a Bed & Breakfast, we expected breakfast to be cooked and supplied, but we had to cook it ourselves. The fresh eggs from the 2 chickens out the back were lovely.

The location within Westbury was great with IGA only a minute away. It was also easy to find.

The host is excellent, going the extra mile to make your stay a memorable one. From the friendly welcome to the smell of hot bread waiting for you, snacks and drinks to enjoy. Lovely large soft towels, comfy bed & pillows. A large rain shower with plenty of pressure. I can not recommend this place enough.

Accommodated 6 with room for children to play

Pleased with position of cottage. Thought host could have been more welcoming and informative. Loved the quaintness and memorabilia. Also the play area for the children was great. Could not understand why there was a cooktop and microwave but no oven. Limited meals preparation. Was hoping to heat pastries etc. for tasty and easy meals. Not everything was clean. Needed to wash crust from frying pan and wash some cutlery. Beds comfy and extra heaters appreciated as were breakfast provisions.

Nice overall, but not perfect.

The place we stayed at was the Servant's quarter which was a good sized cottage. The little touches were nice, like the loaf of bread and cakes on arrival, however I found the bedroom to be quite small. There was barely any room to move from one side of the bed to the other. But in saying that the bed was quite nice-it had that old charm feel to it.
The shower wasn't great, water pressure was poor. But overall we enjoyed our stay.
