OK but no wifi

Reviewed By LeahSydney01

We stayed in a family room for one night, which was adequate. It was quite spacious for a family room (4 guests), the aircon worked well and it was very quiet. The motel/tavern is also very centrally located with everything in Bellingen in easy walking distance. My only criticism is that there was no wifi as advertised. I suspect that there is some wifi in the Tavern but that the signal is not strong enough to reach the room that we were staying in.

Peace and privacy in a beautiful setting

Reviewed By Jane B

There are many things to love about the Promised Land Retreat. To begin with, it's hard to imagine a more rejuvenating setting among the lush farmland and rainforest of the aptly named Promised Land. The chalets are thoughtfully designed to maximise the views and ambience of the area, while offering complete privacy and comfort. Check-in was seamless and in general the chalet was very well decked out. There are a couple of minor things that could be improved (the electric stove in our chat was rather slow, we couldn't get Netflix to work and the pillows could perhaps do with a refresh) but these hardly matter when you are in such a uniquely beautiful spot. Thank you for a very enjoyable stay.

Guest house or backpacker hostel?

Reviewed By Aussielins

This place has supposedly been converted from a back packer hostel to an upmarket guest house. Our group paid extra to have 'exclusive' use of the place and were surprised to find people sleeping on couches overnight and others in a van outside who used the toilet and kitchen facilities. My room was like an echo chamber, magnifying every noise inside and outside the building. I was not impressed when one of the people outside our group decided to have a shower at midnight. The bathroom was next to my bedroom and the noise made sleep impossible. The verandah at the back is a lovely place to sit for meals or drinks. The guesthouse is conveniently located in the middle of Bellingen. I would not stay there again.

We had the pleasure of staying for two nights at the beginning of March. Bruce and Jeanette could not have been more welcoming, with a drink and nibbles on arrival, and tips on where to eat and booked us a table at the local pub for dinner that night. The breakfast is fantastic plenty of fruit, and cereals and a wonderful cooked breakfast, the poached eggs are perfect! The accommodation is beautiful and spotlessly clean, the bed is very comfortable and the bedding is top class. We only wish that we could have stayed longer!

Reviewed By lyn197272

We absolutely loved it here. Sadly only for one day and night, but very worthwhile for $290 per night. Self contained and gorgeous. Lovely hot water instantly, very cosy for Winter, and supplied essentially everything we needed, and a bit more. The room is large and pretty as is the deck overlooking the beautiful garden. I wouldn't have even known we had neighbours if I couldn't see the other cabins. The host Kristy was just lovely and we will be back again for sure. Rainforest regeneration happening next door. Listen to Whippoorwills, Bell birds and Butcher birds, so lovely. Short walk to all of the cafes and shops and Pub in town, which are many and lovely. Definitely recommend for a stay in Bellingen.
