A 5-minute walk takes you to a well-stocked corner shop & cafe. 10 mins further you're at the Bellinger River where you can picnic & swim. 5 mins on & you're in the center of town. The cottage is well-maintained and clean with a well-equipped kitchen We provide a variety of teas, ground coffee, milk and muesli. It has a relaxing bushy garden, providing shade and privacy from the street as well as attracting birds to feed. The spacious western deck is closed in on one end and provides protection from the weather and further privacy from the neighbours. On the deck, it is quiet, peaceful, and the perfect place for viewing the many birds that fly among the surrounding trees. There is a panoramic view of the Dorrigo Escarpment from the back deck. There are two lounge and eating areas: one inside and the other on the deck, where most of our time is spent there. The kitchen is well equipped (replace any accidental breakages, thanks!) and has functional basic equipment which includes a gas cooktop and oven, fridge, toaster, electric jug, microwave etc. When you stay at Casuarina Cottage you have the whole house to yourselves. This includes a carport underneath the house together with a grassed park-like sloping backyard. During your stay, I'm contactable by SMS if you have any questions or problems arise. Please note: we do not allow pets. LOCATION We are within 30 minutes of Coffs Harbour Airport with regular connections to Sydney via several different airlines and discount fares. A simple drive away are long, white surf beaches, popular with surfers. BELLINGEN, where we are located, is an ever-funky, cafe-laden township. There are many festivals held here throughout the year with 2 markets held every month. There is the unique Never Never Creek and picnic area at Gleniffer, only 10 mins drive away. It is a 20 min drive to the Dorrigo Rainforest Center where there are numerous rainforest trails to walk which include waterfalls, picnic areas, a cafe, a unique shop, and an information counter. Casuarina Cottage is in North Bellingen and is a few minutes drive to the town center,10-15 mins by foot. The walk to town also takes you past the swimming spot on the Bellinger River. There is also a local taxi. The corner shop and cafe, a 5 min walk away, is well stocked and includes a liquor store. The ocean beaches are 20mins away by car. There is a bus to Coffs Harbour which leaves from Bellingen early in the morning and returns mid-afternoon. To get here with the much improved Pacific Highway, you'll drive for six hours from Sydney.
