Absolutely beautiful location, very tranquil great for a little escape.

We had the most relaxing time we have had in a very long time. John and Snooki made us both feel very welcome. We will miss the sight and sound of the river. Photos cannot do this wonderful place justice. Thank you and Cheers

This gorgeous property is surrounded by lush, green rainforest and gives the feeling of being far away from everything. With the soothing sound of the river nearby you could be forgiven for thinking you had been transported to some kind of paradise from The Land Before Time. John's care and connection to the land and our Indigenous first Australians is inspiring and he is full of interesting knowledge. Situated next door to the main property, John is close by if you want a chat or any local tips, yet you can easily forget anybody is nearby given the seclusion of the property. The garden has several lovely little places to sit and take in the beauty, or for quiet reflection. Or you could wander to the river and sit aside a rock and pretend you're the only one in the universe.

John is a stand up guy who ticks all the boxes as an AirBnB host. The location is close enough to check out the goings on in Bellingen, whilst also being removed enough to allow you to privately engage with the landscape. No need to mention what a wonderful companion Snooki is! Thanks for the wonderful weekend

A beautiful space nestled beside a bubbly creek. John is amazing, very kind and easy to connect with. We loved the hot spa on the deck and back yard fire pit!

We loved our time at John's property. A beautiful setting, especially if you are a nature lover, very comfortable accommodation, fabulous art and artifacts around the place. John is a charming and helpful host.

John and Snookie graciously shared their little piece of paradise with us. We were blown away by this stunning location and we couldn't have asked for more accomodating hosts. Thanks so much John and Snookie, we look forward to hopefully meeting again soon.

Thank you so much john for sharing this special part of the world with us. Such a wonderful spot for our weekend getaway. John was very helpful every step of the way, and is full of knowledge and interesting tips of what to see and do in the area. The cottage itself is stunning, filled with everything you could ever need. Highlight for us was the swimming hole at your back door, and waking up to the sounds of the river and rainforest each evening. Thanks again John (and Snookie)!

We loved our stay with Jody and Daniel. They are lovely, kind and warm hearted hosts who welcomed us and made us feel at home. The room is lovely, and the location is spectacular! I'm sure we will be back.

We had a great stay. Amazing scenery, very accomodating hosts. Would definitely recommend for a comfortable stay in bellingen.

My daughters and I had a wonderful time at this beautiful place. We loved swimming in the river and the kids were very excited to explore the garden. Thanks - we'll be back(URL HIDDEN)

Great location and our hosts were very friendly. Perfect for a weekend to enjoy Bellingen and what the area offers.

Jo Joa place is spectacularly positioned on the river. Breakfast on the veranda was a great way to start each day.

Beautiful property on the Bellingen river. Great experience with comfortable accommodation. Jody and Daniel were lovely hosts and the breakfast on the deck each morning was wonderful.

The Hostess was not at the property when we arrived. We were directed over the phone along a winding path to a small building like a toilet block and said to open the blue door with no lock or handle on and a picture of a man and woman and toilet written on the door. Not a good look for accommodation to have to go through a public toilet door to get to it. On the left was an open door, there was a well appointed bathroom. We entered and saw the floor was covered in dirty footprints. The shower glass was not cleaned, the toilet seat was up and the pan was filthy and the sink was dirty and the plug hole had mouldy gunk around it. The bedroom shag pile rug was not vacuumed. The kettle had slimy water in it. A glass was half filled with water as if someone had drank from it. There was a vase of half dead flowers in slimy water. The bed was made up. There was no TV. The heater had an 18 minute timer on it so it went off constantly and as it was 6 degrees it was a really cold evening spent there. We called the Hostess asking for some cleaning products - and to her credit her response was rapid and she arrived with her arms full of cleaning products. We left and arrived back a couple of hours later. The place had been cleaned and smelt of bleach. A second blow heater had been put into the bathroom, and a TV put into the bedroom. The location, gardens and scenery are all very green and lovely. Seriously though this place is only suitable for backpackers or for a schoolies weekend. In our opinion it is way overpriced.

What a lovely getaway! Quiet, spacious, clean & well presented. The bed was super comfy & there was a living area upstairs with a gorgeous verandah to have breakfast on. The breakfast was delicious & our host so friendly & welcoming. Couldn't fault it!

We had the most amazing time at Mindy & Stuart's property. They were very welcoming & were excellent in helping us plan our time in the Bellingen Shire. The property itself is well equipped with a lovely outlook & conveniently located in the middle of Bellingen & Dorrigo so everything was easily accessible by car. Thank you again.

Mindy and Stuart were wonderful hosts - incredibly friendly, helpful and hospitable. The Dairy was a stunning and peaceful property - beautiful scenery, the river nearby and some friendly cows too! Next time we are in the area we will definitely return to The Dairy!

This is the perfect retreat from the hustle and bustle of city life. Mindy and Stuart were fantastic hosts and no stone has been unturned to make your stay perfect! From the delicious food for breakfast to the gorgeous detailing of the accommodation. You can tell a lot of love has been put in to make this beautiful farm stay comfortable, relaxing and like your in luxury. We will be back again!

A fantastic farm experience, peaceful and tranquil with a beautiful cottage to stay in providing everything we could possibly need. Mindy and Stu were the perfect hosts, NOTHING was too much trouble and they let us join in on all the fun farm rituals. Ideally located close to all the activities the area has to offer and far enough away to feel like we had escaped the world. We will recommend this place to everyone and we'll be back.

Great little farmstay, kitchen has all the basic necessities, and appreciated the complimentary breakfast and juice. Loved waking up to the cows 20 meters away! Great communication and a pleasure to meet Mindy and Stuart

Anne was very quick to respond and welcomed us with very short notice which was highly appreciated. She was a very generous, helpful host, and provided a delicious homemade breakfast. The bed was the most comfortable airbnb bed I have slept in yet! And the views over the mountains were stunning. Thanks so much for having us in your beautiful home. I would love to return one day. Thanks!

Anne was very accommodating at short notice. The room was beautiful with high, beamed ceilings, lots of space, a glorious view, and a bed that made me feel like a princess. Anne made me feel very welcome with local knowledge, a chat and a cuppa.

Anne was a thoughtful and welcoming hostess and the room was really lovely well appointed with great attention to detail Annes Unique pottery creations scattered throughout house and garden and two lovely moggies happy for a cuddle add to the rustic homespun ambience Anne makes a mean Pavlova too and guests absolutely should negotiate for the opportunity to sample one of Annes fab Pavs as part of the guests deal Wendy buss

I had a great week staying with Anne and her gorgeous cats. The house is lovely and comfortable, and I really enjoyed the spa and sauna! Anne is extremely friendly and provides a very cosy feeling to your holiday.

Anne made me feel very welcome. We stayed up late talking over a cuppa, I found Anne easy to talk to. The bedroom is upstairs and has a lovely outlook. I slept with the curtains open so I could see the stars at night. I found the bed very comfortable and had a great sleep. The area Anne has created outside is amazing. I will have try the outdoor shower next time. I could easily stay their again.

Anne was very welcoming and informative. Nice room in a nice house set in a lovely garden. Slept well, would stay again and recommend to friends. Great overall!

Anne was very friendly and we got nice tips for our journey. The market in Bellingen was great.

Anne was very welcoming and happy to share her home, pottery and stories with us - as well as her delicious bread! She was also happy to give us some privacy to hang out with the cats and do a crossword with a cup of tea. Make sure you try an egg from the backyard chooks!

Immaculate and private room with separate entrance and private bathroom. Pauline very accommodating and lots of generous little touches to make your stay a delight. The garden is beautiful. The location is a short stroll into town but very quiet. Would recommend and would stay again.

Very nice, clean and tidy little house, close to the centre of Bellingen. Excellent communication with Christine who was very helpful. A lovely back veranda on which to watch the birdlife and the light and shadows crossing the mountains. Happy to recommend this fairly basic but comfortable little house.

Thank you, Christine for allowing us to stay in your delightful cottage over the weekend. There were four of us keen to spend time in Bellingen checking out the markets, shops, restaurants and the beautiful local surrounds. The cottage was as described, however, we were very impressed with the provisions that Christine had left for us. The cottage is cute, clean and has everything you need. We cooked one night and for two breakfasts with us spending most of our time there on the sizeable balcony overlooking the garden. Bellingen was just over a kilometre away and a pleasant walk if you're up for that. Excellent place and thorough recommended.

Urja was there to welcome us and explain the area etc. Great and useful chat! Lovely quiet home with lovely views, yet close to everything.

Urja was so lovely from the very first communication & as with many airbnb hosts I felt I was meeting an old friend when I arrived. the home is cosy & welcoming & in fact we felt the photos did not do justice.the spacious deck at the back with that green view of paradise was perfect,the beds comfy & the space easily accommodated our family gathering at Christmas. the thoughtful goodies for breakfast were a yummy & welcome touch.thanks so much. it was hard to leave!im already planning a return visit. a pleasure to meet you & share your space.thanks Urja.:)

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in beautiful Belo. Christine was a very attentive host. The accommodation was in a beautiful location about a 20 minute walk into town. We would definitely recommend it.

Lovely location. Christine supplied fabulous fresh fruit, yoghurt, eggs, bread and cereal for breakfast. The cottage was lovely and clean. Couldn't fault it. Small but it was all we needed

Thank you for a lovely stay in Bellingen. Christine was a great host and wonderful communicator. The cottage is well set up, very clean and the undercover veranda was great considering the rainy weather while we were there. The cottage is well set up for children however would benefit from a microwave. We had a great stay and would definitely recommend this cottage to our family and friends.

Comfortable house with a great view, fantastic deck, lots of little extras thought of by Christine, and a bath!

We had a delightful and relaxing experience in this beautifully designed, clean and well stocked pad overlooking trees and the Bellinger valley. We went during the classical music festival in September and met up with Reiner our host there for several concerts. It was great to know someone and chat during intermission! Bellingen is probably our ideal village, we love coming here. The house is a 10-15 minute walk from town up a hill, which made for good exercise. I love how you can hear the birds and the frogs here so much clearer than in the city. We were able to confirm with a neighbour if we were in the right place when we arrived, and he was super friendly also. Even showed us the fireflies in the bamboo one night! Ann and Reiner went out of their way to accomodate my need to make a work call, and offered the use of their office telephone in town. Also, we got confused about our date of departure and they let us stay another night. Thank you for a fabulous stay!

Description of property was accurate though I wouldn't want to walk into town and back up the hill too many times

Ann and Reiner were very friendly, welcoming and really helpful. The architect designed "tiny home" was lovely and we wanted to stay for a month instead of the weekend. Very inspiring. Fresh eggs from the chooks outside and fresh greens from the abundant veggie garden were lovely. (although we forgot to close the window above the bed and the chooks were loudly laying eggs at dawn.) Beautiful view from the window seat (our favourite spot for many cups of tea and breakfast.) Very pretty part of town on one of steep and strange little roads in Bellingen. Very comfortable beds and glorious pillows. At first we were sad that there was no TV but by the end of our stay we were glad. We left with a feeling of peace and calm. We will definately be back for another stay. Thank you :-)

Ann was a great host, the studio was perfect, as described. Mid century furnishings and lovely clean amenities, everything you could possibly need. They even had fresh ground coffee and hand made soaps for us. Bellingen is our favourite place to visit and would definitely stay at Ann's studio again!

Nice little apartment/house, very stylish. Ann is very welcoming.

Lovely studio, photos are accurate. Convenient location, we enjoyed our stay in Bellingen very much. Such a beautiful location. Hosts were welcoming, quiet neighbourhood. Thankyou Riener & Anne, we would recommend this apartment for a quiet, relaxing stay.

We really enjoyed staying at Ann's place its a beautifully decorated and designed space. The window seat is such a lovely feature.

Big thanks to Ann and Reiner for being such incredibly warm and inviting hosts. The place was intelligently designed and we loved the focus on sustainability, support for local businesses, and all the extra homely additions. We loved Bellingen and can't wait to come back!

The forest lodge was just as shown, if not better. The cottage was comfortable, clean and a welcome relief after the long trip. Such an attractive place in a beautiful setting. We all loved our stay at this place. Peter and Suzi were welcoming, warm and helpful hosts. I would highly recommend staying here!

We were running late, I think it was 9.45 pm by the time we reached. Suzie was still awake and she welcomed us into the beautiful cottage. It had everything for entertainment to cater for all age groups. We woke up to a great view, kids loved feeding the animals. Great value for money. Highly recommend! Thank you Peter and Suzie for a wonderful experience.

The stay at the cottage was truly awesome. The view is breath taking and my son loved the deers.

Quaint, clean, roomy and cosy. Owners Peter and Suzi very obliging

Perfect!

Clean. Cozy. Kind host.

Lovely hosts. Stunning view. The kids loved the animals.

Awesome and ver accommodating

A great location,quiet yet central.

Such a gorgeous cottage in a great location! Easy walk to shops and cafes. I stayed with my husband and two daughters. Great place for a family. Has everything you need. It was very hot the first day we arrived but house was made comfortable with aircon and fans in each room. I highly recommend this place to stay.

Beautiful home with lots of character. We loved our stay at Genes house & will definitely return in the future.

Gene and her co hosts Ella and Phoebe were welcoming and helpful. They offered a clean and cosy cottage with all the ammenities. They were available for questions during our stay and provided a helpful guide to the space and the local Bellingen area. Our family really enjoyed our holiday at Gene's.

Gene's house is beautiful and centrally located. It was clean and comfortable. We loved staying here and will be back again hopefully for a longer stay. Thanks Gene and family what a treat to stay in your beautiful home.

Genes home is in a great location for a short or longer term stay. The ambience is beautiful, and it has everything you could wish for a very comfortable stay. Generous kitchen supplies were a lovely surprise. I'd certainly love to return and stay.

Beautiful Bellingen cottage with oodles of charm. Lovely host. Great place to stay. Thank you Gene.

We made a last minute booking and it was quickly and easily confirmed. We just loved our stay and will be back again!! The cottage is beautiful with so many restored original features and furnishings. It was quite magical. The rooms were clean and light and the kitchen was well equipped. Gene was a wonderful and welcoming host who has lived in Bellingen for many years and was happy to share her knowlege of the area. Walking distance to Cafes and the river which made the location perfect. The Wifi was a bonus too. We cant recommend this place enough! Its even better than it looks in the pictures!

I stayed at Shaaron's with two friends and we had a wonderful time. Shaaron was a really welcoming host, providing great vegan breakfast supplies and showing us around the property as well as recommending routes to the forests nearby. The private studio is really well equipped (with great air conditioning!) and the property is beautiful, with the creek down the back for a refreshing swim, set amongst the magical landscapes of the promised land. It's really close to Bellingen and ideal for a few days of relaxation! Thanks so much Shaaron!

Shaaron and John welcomed us as if we were old friends that they'd been expecting. When we arrived, we got a tour of the beautiful property as well as insights into the best swimming holes close by. The flat was pristine and spacious for a couple. Shaaron was kind enough to provide a breakfast basket since all of the shops were closed on Good Friday. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to wind down and experience the promised land.

An absolutely exquisite and tranquil stay, very hospitable and perfect for anyone looking to unwind and disconnect from the world. Gorgeous location, swimming in the crystal clear rivers just a minute away and plenty of entertainment inside the accommodation. Highly recommend this place!

We have a great holiday it has a great quiet location. Shaaron is very hospitable and friendly. As a local she can give you great tips of the best spots to visit. I would definitely return and stay with Shaaron. We really enjoy her place specially the creek in her property!

Had a wonderful time staying at Shaaron & John's place located in an idyllic location on the Never Never Creek. Very peaceful and hosts went above and beyond to make sure we had an enjoyable stay. Beautiful property and surrounds, very relaxing with Shaaron providing many extras to make us feel welcome and comfortable, for example, DVD's, books, magazines, games and a wholesome breakfast. A very special place....

We only stayed with Leonie for one night. She was very welcoming & showed us everything we needed to know. The location is a short walk to town & is well positioned in Bellingen. Her beautiful home is exactly the type of home we always try to find when we are away from our home. Older style, high ceilings, large rooms, timber floors & full of atmosphere. Immaculately clean & the bed was so comfortable, Thanks Leonie for being the perfect host!

Beautiful inviting home, equal to Leonie's hospitality and kindness. A gem!

Everything was fabulous. The house is quaint with really lovely features. Leonie is really lovely and welcoming. Her cat was gorgeous! The bed was so comfortable, and the sheets Devine. The room/decor was beautiful. Thank you again!

Lovely quiet home with a spectacular view. Thanks very much, just what we were looking for!

Stunning view in a peaceful location close to Bellingen. Great record collection to bring back old memories. Good selection of board games as well. Tank water restrictions may have lead to the bed linen not being replaced between guests. Everything else acceptable with a comfortable, homely feel.

Great farm house experience, excellent view on top of a hill over looking an open field and distant mountain.

Four friends stayed at Ursula's rustic country house with our dog and we had a great time. We loved the record collection and reminisced as we listened to the hits of the eighties. The view is beautiful from the deck and we had a lovely brunch, cooked up on the weber and in the easy to use kitchen. Ursula was very kind in her communication and generous with a late check out.

What a stunning outlook. Sweet place to stay. Loved the record collection. About 4km from bellingen for a relaxed dinner. Would recommend.

Lovely quite place to sit back and relax and enjoy the view

Such a restful, relaxing place with spectacular views of mountains. Very comfortable. Close to shops of Bellingen. Country feel but also close enough to the coast for swims if you want something different to the local river and waterholes.

Great stay.

We loved our stay at Anni's place!! Well equipped, central and family friendly. Would highly recommend for anyone visiting Bellingen. Anni was lovely to deal with and provided excellent communication.

My friends and I stayed here for two nights and it was perfect for our needs. The house looked exactly as it did in the photos, it was clean, easy to check-in/find and walking distance to town. I loved the big verandah out the back. I couldn't work out how to get the blinds down in the bedrooms but the owner (Anni) quickly responded to my text with clear instructions (which worked!). I really hope to stay here again one day.

Anni did everything she could to make this a smooth stay. It is a beautiful place with a lovely feel, so close to everything.

Arrival and departure times were relaxed which added to our relaxation. The back garden and outlook is absolutely beautiful. The convenience store and bottle shop is very convenient - 100 metres. The walk to town took 10 minutes - perfect.

Lovely cottage, and beautiful outlook over backyard and beyond! Anni paid great attention to detail with everything you'd need already there in the kitchen. Excellent, helpful communications. Top of our list next time we're in Bellingen!

Anni's house is easy to find and a good location for walks, the river and accessing town. Arrangements with Anni were very simple and straightforward, she was helpful and flexible for the days and times we needed. The house is clean and has a lovely view from the back verandah into a peaceful garden and beyond. The area is very quiet. Thanks Anni, we appreciated staying at your house.

A gorgeous place with beautiful lush gardens, plenty of space to relax, comfortable beds, stocked with everything you need, and close to town. Anni was helpful and prompt with communication, and the weekend flowed effortlessly. Highly recommended.

We stayed at Maureen's home for one night on our way up the coast. It was a perfect little sanctuary walking distance away from the Bellingen shops. Maureen was very lovely and helpful telling us about the best brekky in town and providing a portable cot for our little baby boy. Great deck looking out over her big garden to enjoy a cup of tea and sit back and relax.

Comfortable room in a house of basic utilities. Very clean and quiet.

Lovely home, felt so private just to ourselves. Clean, comfy, and friendly communication

Quiet, secluded house but close to town for restaurants. Very comfortable, firm bed and pillows. Private room with clean, convenient facilities and off road parking.

super clean and cute room, great location within walking distance of town centre. fantastic hospitality, went absolutely above and beyond! would definitely stay here again

Excellent experience staying with Maureen . Flexible with check in and out. Nice and tidy room. Excellent.

Maureen is really convenient for the check in and check out! We enjoyed a good breakfast and spent a good night there!!

It is a fun place to stay right in the centre of town. Spacious and comfortable.

Potters warehouse is a fabulous, stylish and very comfortable place. John and his wife were very accommodating and friendly and easily contactable. The place is very well designed! The king size beds were very comfortable, and also the futon. The bedrooms are spacious. The two balconies are perfect for a morning coffee or afternoon drinks! The location is perfect! Cafe right below the apartment, and walking distance from other cafes, IGA, bottle shops, and the river to swim in! Bellingen is a gorgeous little town. Highly recommend staying here!! Will definitely come back

We had high expectations based on other reviews and the other reviews are spot on. John and Phuc are gracious and friendly hosts. The warehouse apartment is very spacious, comfortable and impeccably prepared. The apartment is centrally located and yet due to the large size with generous balconies and trees the apartment feels very private. We loved our stay and plan to return. Highly recommended.

Fantastic part of the world! The apartment is right on top of it all with plenty of space, a genuine rustic feel but with plenty of comfort thrown in. Well hosted. John will ensure your taken care of from check in to check out!

We stayed at John's Potters Warehouse during the Bello Winter Music Festival. John was a very welcoming host who was on hand if we needed him during our stay. Situated in an excellent position to walk to the many cafes, restaurants and shops within Bellingen. Very spacious, comfortable and a relaxing stay was had in this unique Air BnB beautifully renovated by John. Stunning views over to the hills added to our weekend away.

From our arrival to our departure John was a perfect host . Potters Warehouse was as described . Beautiful place to stay , could not fault the place . Would highly recommend staying here !

Fabulous place...... spacious, interesting, beautiful big verandahs, walk to everything in beautiful Belingen.....and of course a lovely host who made us very welcome.....thanks John

Great location. Spacious yet homely. Absolutely recommend. John is a gracious host and we were very happy with our 2 night stay. Wish it could have been longer. Thanks John.

Such a charming home, with a rustic, eclectic feel. A beautiful spot to escape for a few days.

Susan is a lovely host and good communicator. The location is gorgeous and peaceful and our baby loved the chickens that appeared in the yard. Loved the high ceilings and artwork.

Super cool house, lovely quiet location, great paddocks to explore with a 3yo, warm, cozy, safe feeling house. We really enjoyed our stay at the Farmstay and we look forward to staying again in the future. Thanks for having us!

A beautiful stay in a beautiful part of the world. Very peaceful. We have everything we required for a relaxing and enjoyable stay. The vintage records were a a nice surprise! The farm animals were so cute. Wonderful vibes. Susan & her caretakers made our experience seamless, great communication.

We LOVED our time at the Bellingen Vintage Farmstay. We arrived late in the night after travelling with a 2 year old, and arrived feeling welcomed by Susan. The place heated up quickly thanks to the fire and A/C, clean linen and towels were provided and the general vibe of the house was just what we needed. Susan had left plenty of explanations for the area, the property, and even offered an early morning chicken and egg run for our daughter. We roamed the property freely saying hello to the friendly horses, cows and chickens and loved being so close to the gorgeous town that is Bellingen, but far enough away to feel at one with nature. Great coffee, groceries and country style shops in town, with one or two Sydney style boutiques stocking labels I recognised from the big smoke. We would happily return here in a heart beat xxx

Had a great stay at Bellingen Vintage Farmstay. The house had everything we needed and was very comfortable. Great place to get away from it all :-)

My husband, two daughters (9 &11) had a beautiful time in bellingen at the funny farm! I highly recommend this lovely little house! It is a wonderful launching pad for enjoying the wonderful town (make reservations!!), beaches (valla was amazing) or just relaxing and playing games at the house. The hosts were beyond lovely inviting us for a trampoline jump and gifting us fresh farm eggs. We highly recommend the vintage farm and enjoyed all of it!!

My family had great stay! Beautiful area and home. Susan was very welcoming and helpful.
