Wonnerup House, Heritage site in Busselton, Western Australia
The Wonnerup House complex includes two main structures: an 1838 house and an 1859 homestead situated between Ludlow Tuart Forest and Vasse-Wonnerup wetlands.
George Layman established the property in 1832 with a 500-acre land grant, marking the beginning of European settlement in the Busselton region.
The site stands on Wadandi Country, where Indigenous people maintained camping grounds for traditional practices and used the fertile estuary for resources.
The property opens Monday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, with parking spaces available for cars, buses, and caravans on Layman Road.
The National Trust completed a roof restoration project in 2021, transforming the site from its 1973 presentation to include contemporary interpretative elements.
