ENVIRONMENT
Robert Webb is the builder and previous owner of the Grampians Pioneer Cottages. In 1987, Robert and his wife Jackie purchased the site for the Pioneer Cottages. Nestled in a beautiful spot at the foot of the Grampians, the property provided spectacular sweeping views of the Grampians and beyond. Work began in 1990 with the aim of building four cottages in eight years.
Robert searched far and wide for recycled/second-hand building materials and furnishings for the cottages. In January 1993 the Log Cottage was completed.
During this building process, Robert and Jackie planted thousands of native trees in the low lying wetlands at the front of the cottages. This provided a haven for native wildlife as well as creating a picture perfect foreground to the views of the Grampians.
What we love…
A handbuilt log cabin in the mountains! Redgum Log Cottage is a unique and beautiful place in the stunning Grampians countryside.
Tell me more
This hand built cottage has arisen from many recycled and restored materials such as redgum log slabs saved from the forestry, pine kitchen cupboards of New Zealand kauri pine found in the old St Arnaud Flour Mill. Even the sunburst on the Range Hood comes from an Australian built 1925 H.V.McKay, ‘Sunshine’ grain harvester.
