Return visit to Bellingen
Love returning to Bellingen and this house! So relaxing sitting out on the verandah looking across to the mountains with a glass of wine. Then an open fire to enchant when you retire inside

We would have no hesitation to recommend this property to family and friends. The Cottage was well maintained, perfect outside deck with a great view for an afternoon cuppa or drinks before dinner. The bbq was a handy extra to enjoy the outside eating place on the deck. Our daughter joined us for 3 nights and she really enjoyed her stay. The Bellingen Show was on at the time, plus the perfect weather helped make the stay memorable. Rob

Peaceful little getaway
This cottage is in the perfect spot, only minutes from town, but with the feel that you are very much away from it all. We loved sitting on the verandah having dinner and drinks, and our 5 children loved the flat lawn area and going for little nature walks around the property. The cottage was very cosy and clean, would definitely recommend to other families. Check in and out was very simple and the hosts were friendly.

A little piece of paradise
We booked this cottage for three nights. It was amazing, beautiful and comfortable on the inside with the bonus of a big veranda looking out on to the mountains. It’s set in its own grounds so very peaceful but close enough to go to Bellingen if you want some hustle and bustle. Would highly recommend this property.

Very happy with our stay. Well stocked with everything needed, and with quality products. All our needs were accommodated, and hosts always friendly. The view from the back deck is stunning, and the town close by. We enjoyed a swim daily in the pool, and would love to stay again.

Peaceful retreat with magnificent views
A beautiful cottage fully renovated with a nod to a bygone era. Comfortable beds, quality linen, and full amenities to make our four night stay one of our best. We loved spending the day on the generous balcony and soaking in the winter sunshine and unbelievable views. (Occasional visit from resident Alpaca on front lawn just made it more special) Just on the outskirts of town, so a super location for many great restaurants & cafes, and we plan to come back again to go and see more of the local sites.

A private haven for tranquility and rejuvenation
Excellent accommodation, very hospitable host, nice little touches of things you might need like wood coffee milk soaps shampoos etc, lovely private bush setting with lots of little birds like wrens and honey eaters on native shrubs in the garden, cosy wood heater, comfy beds and well equipped kitchen. Very close to town and lots of interesting things to do in the area. If you need tranquility to rejuvenate you this is a great cottage to escape to.

Peace and Tranquility
Fernridge Farm Cottage is very elegant and cosy with a wonderful wood fire for the cold winter nights. The views of the mountains are beautiful and as you sit on the verandah, taking in the wonderful surrounds, you are wrapped in sunlight from dawn to dusk. The cottage is very close to Bellingen and the coast making it an ideal base to explore the local area. Wonderful host.
