Penthouse interlude

The Traill in Margaret River offers something a little different in terms of accommodation for visitors.
On Bussell Highways and in the heart of the township, the two-storey French Provincial-style building has commercial outlets on the ground floor and two penthouses designed for short-stay accommodation above.
“Architects James Christou & Partners designed a French Provincial-style building to reflect the Sout-West’s connection with the French explorers who visited the region,” owner Elizabeth Adkins said.
She said The Traill included a Dome Café, Jones Fine Foods and Christian Fletcher Photo Images gallery on the ground level. Above were two balcony apartments decorated in marine and Art Deco themes.
“The aim was to provide easy access to gourmet outlets and a gallery for guests as well as to add commercial ventures of this calibre to Margaret River,” Mrs Adkins said.
The Traill is named after Mrs Adkins’ late husband, Ian Traill Adkins, who bought the site for her in December 1990.
The apartments opened at the end of last year. “It took three years to complete the project,” Mrs Adkins said. “It was a very difficult site to build on because the main street has a stream and underground springs running along it.”
