About this house rental
Located half way between Margaret River Town (5 mins drive) and the stunning Redgate Beach. Next to award-wining wineries, Xanadu, Voyager and Leeuwin Estate, Bella Retreat is nestled amongst gardens and 13 acres of beautiful jarrah and red-gum forest and is the ideal getaway.
A rural retreat where guests instantly relax as the hustle and bustle of city life is replaced by the native bird song. If you love the peace and tranquillity of a beautiful forest setting but love also to be centrally located then this is the property for you.
Abundant wildlife (our native kangaroos can be viewed early mornings and sunset), endangered Black Cockatoos, stunning flora and and wildlife can be observed as you stroll through the surrounds.
Guests can really get away from it all here, explore and discover or relax, recharge and reconnect.

This place was exactly what we were after... and exactly as advertised.
An all round great house for people with younger children... or older.
So much to do, so many areas to enjoy, entertain or relax and only a few minutes from all of what Margaret River and beyond has to offer.
We loved it !

Good location, in a rural setting yet close to Margaret River and Caves Road. Loads for kids to occupy themselves. The owner was informative and easy to contact. Well appointed inside, with everything you need for a comfy stay.

We really enjoyed our stay at the aptly named Bella Retreat. It was a wonderful place to not only relax and spend time together, but also a great base from which to explore the area. The garden and surrounds were just magical and we loved saying hello to the local kangaroos and birds. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to stay again in the future.

5.0 / 5.0
This property was everything it promised to be and more. The fire pit and playground for the kids made it feel like all the fun of camping, but with a cozy home to go back to each night. The house itself is beautifully presented and very comfortable, just like a home away from home. To be surrounded by such gorgeous bush land was absolutely idyllic and made for beautiful dawn and dusk walks. We had the most wonderful family holiday and cannot wait to return.

A piece of paradise
Bella Retreat is a most wonderful, magical property nestled in Bush just far enough away from the hustle of Margaret River for it to be a haven. The house is tastefully furnished and feels very homely with absolutely everything you need. The boules, table tennis and playground are a treat, even for older kids. The best bit though is the beauty of the nature surrounding the house, fairy wrens, bobtail and the most beautiful butterflies I've ever seen. I sat for hours watching the birds bathe! Belinda was a delight to communicate with, answering our queries quickly. We will definitely like to visit again, loved this place so much.

Home away from home.
Belinda and her team have done a wonderful job of making sure the experience and Bella Retreat is a great one. The house has everything you could ever need, but to us the outside area was the best part of the trip.. running around the grounds in the morning with our dog and Kangaroos running through the forrest was just magnificent. Loved every minute.

Just what we needed
Absolutely amazing stay, thankyou so much for sharing your piece of paradise with us Belinda. Beautiful area, cozy and immaculate home. We loved the location, the house was tidy, clean and so organised. We loved that we were close enough to all the attractions in the area yet secluded enough to just enjoy nature and the simple things like walks amoungst the trees. Fantastic amount DVD & games to keep the kids and adults entertained, the kids were happy to just spend the days on the play areas! Was the get away we needed. Thankyou Belinda!

Beautiful location
The house is set in a beautiful tranquil location. A charming rustic cottage with comfortable bedrooms and seating for all, indoor or out. The outdoor areas are perfect for children to explore and play. Close to Margaret river town centre and beaches. Just a twenty minute drive to gorgeous Hamelin Bay. We ran out of hot water by the time the last person showered but in summer it doesn’t really matter. Be sure to take note of the condition of the property as we had issues with things that were ‘damaged’ that we had nothing to do with on departure.

Quiet spacious relaxing enjoyable well equipped and comfortable for families and pets. A+++!
The location is ideal to be away from the busy streets and noise. Perfect for overseas visitors wanting to know and enjoy the magic of the south west. Bella Retreat itself is very comfortable and spacious, with all the necessities and creature comforts you’d need and expect. Very well done and happy with the selection for a holiday. Location wise close to some the the best Margaret river wineries is a plus. Our host was very accommodating and kind. Wish we stayed longer!!

Lovely tranquil location, easy directions given by the owner for us to find Bella Retreat. The house was beautifully presented, clean, fresh smelling linen and well stocked with kitchen ware, games - indoor and outdoor to make an enjoyable stay for the whole family. We loved it.

Wonderful experience
We were totally enjoyed staying at Bella Retreat. We loved the space, the unique farm-like experience of the location but you are a short drive from everything the area have to offer. The fully equipped kitchen and fully decorated living spaces make it homely feel.... Best spot for families with children!

Beautiful property
Beautiful very clean property. Great for kids and multi generational holiday as there are 2 full bathrooms at either end of the house (rather than one ensuite which only time 1 couple can use). Would highly recommend this property.

Simple bush retreat
It wonderful to find a property surrounded by greenery. The house itself was well set up and had everything we needed. The property seems to be perfectly se up for two families to share. We just need to make sure we bring our coffee next time!
A quick note for dog owners. The property is dog friendly and we really enjoyed having our dogs there, however, there is no fenced area to keep your pup in if they are an excitable creature.
