Situated an easy 15min walk to town, or a 2-3min drive.
The space
Simple, safe & clean.
Budget-friendly accommodation for the solo traveller. King single bed, smart TV/Netflix, kitchenette and wardrobe are all in the same space with the share guest bathroom a short walk to the backyard. The outdoor undercover lounge area is a lovely spot for a morning coffee.
Bello Retro is situated alongside the main home, under a double carport. There are two other small airbnbs in close proximity to Bello Retro on the property.
PLEASE NOTE: Our home is situated on a busy town T-intersection. Expect passing cars, trucks and motorbikes 24/7!
No! It's not really 24/7! 😁
It can also be really quiet too. Just making sure you're aware there is a lot of passing traffic (cars, farm trucks etc). You'll hear the neighbourhood dogs barking in the distance. There's also the new neighbours (2 adults/5 kids) that play close to our back fence. 😥
The local council garbage truck will arrive (early!) every thursday morning 😒. BUT! You will also hear the kookaburras laughing at dawn.. and cows moo-ing in the distance. All the sounds you hear in a small country town.
Fresh drinking water supplied. The kitchen tap has cold water only with refillable container under the sink. Use the kettle to boil water for tea/coffee/washing up.
The king single bed has fresh sheets & doona. There's also a smart TV/Netflix, small fridge/freezer, microwave, kettle & toaster. No oven/stove. Wardrobe for clothes and simple cutlery and crockery for one. Small washing machine included. No air con.
Bello Retro boasts a fresh fluffy bathrobe for the short walk to the backyard share guest bathroom.
Currently, there is a new home being renovated next door. 🤨
Bello Retro is for the solo traveller looking for a safe, alternative style budget-friendly accommodation that's a little different to the norm.
If you're planning a trip to Bello to attend a wedding or festival, visit relo's or just passing through, Bello Retro is perfect for you! Close to town.. only a 2-3min drive or an easy 12-15min walk (over the river bridge) to the main street which has many coffee shops, boutiques & fabulous restaurants.
Please note: You'll need to pass through a garden gate to access the share guest bathroom. PLEASE SHUT THIS GATE AT ALL TIMES. We have a 6yo male rescue staffy and 4yo Frenchie in our fenced yard. They're friendly, and will probably come say hello to you. Thank you 🙂
Guest access
The bed & kitchenette are in the one space. The rustic share guest bathroom is separate to the accommodation... just a short walk through the carport and a gate.
Note. There are two other small airbnbs on our block that may or may not be booked at the time of your stay. You may see or hear those guests coming or going during your stay.
Bello Retro is situated alongside our home, under a double carport.
Other things to note
My son (24) and daughter (20) live with me in the main house.
You may hear laughing, accoustic guitar or play lists.
We're friendly folk and will say hi if we see you...
I'm never too far from home and available by phone or text if you need assistance or in case of emergency. Bruno, our friendly 6 year old male rescue staffy & Ellie our 4yo female rescue Frenchie will be in our enclosed yard. My son's motorbike will be parked in the carport. Please do not touch it, move it or sit on it, EVER! Thank you.

Charming rural setting, coastal views, tucked away, yet only 4 min from Pacific Hwy & International Stadium; 5 min drive to airport; 13 min drive to Sawtell Beach and Kiosk cafe at Sawtell Surf Club; 14 min drive to Coffs Harbour Jetty; 10 min drive to shops.//
The neighbouring cattle are lowing, the cicadas are awake, a kangaroo may stop by for some Christmas cake! Stroll into the koala habitat; take a walk to the top; enjoy the view to the Solitary Islands, whilst enjoying a nice drop!
The space
You have your own private space overlooking our rural homestead and surrounding hinterland. Primrose is a pop-top caravan in a rural bush setting and has two single beds, dining area, couch, caravan fridge, microwave, grill and hotplates. The adjacent private ensuite has shower, toilet and vanity plus outdoor shower and hose. Linen, bath towels, hairdryer and some toiletries provided. The annexe is a great spot to have a drink and enjoy the view. We are fully off grid (septic system, triple-settled rainwater, solar power). There is no TV or WIFI but good mobile reception. Access is via our bitumen driveway past the main house and up a short, steep section of driveway to your own private area. A challenging 1km walk from the caravan takes you to a spectacular lookout on the property, perfect for sunrise and sunset.
Guest access
You will have your own private area above and overlooking the homestead, with both rural and coastal views; walking access to the broader vistas from higher up on our property.
