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.
Cute little cottage in a beautiful historic town. Lots to see. Cosy, comfy house with beautiful yard and apple trees. Also with fireplace, tv and washing machine for added bonus. Perfect place for a relaxing getaway. Wish we stayed longer
Fabulous large cottage with every amenity including full breakfast supplies and freshly baked bread. Highly recommend as a base for touring this part of Tassie.
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.

A delightful cottage in need of some love and attention, somewhat tired and unloved in places.

Very welcoming with freshly baked bread and other nice touches. Heritage features abound. Lovely gardens too.
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.
I would highly recommend the Gingerbread Cottages, so welcoming and homely the little touches of the old relics of time gone bye and the surprise treat at the end of each day were much appreciated (little muffins) ect: The little home had everything we needed for our stay again.
Cottage was so beautiful and quaint, good position and lovely muffins on arrival. Only downside is it could have had a quick dusting before we got there but otherwise it was a great stay.
This is a great little cottage B&B to stay at. It has history at every corner. The hosts were great and was the breakfast.

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.
