We booked Christine’s cottage in Bellingen for a couple of our employees who were working on the elevators at the hospital in town. It is in an ideal position for people working and travelling through the area, very close to all amenities and the pretty area of Bellingen itself. Christine’s home provided a pleasant place away from home besides the usual motel accommodation and was just as the pictures showed. Checkin was easy and the basics such as milk etc were left for our employees to enjoy. Christine and her partner put in much effort to keep their home nice and even came and changed sheets and refreshed the home weekly. Christine herself was prompt and extremely pleasant in all our conversation and even when we were experiencing delays with the hospital which were beyond our control extended our accommodation for a further week with no recompense to herself. Such kindliness should be recognised and appreciated and we would gladly recommend both Christine and her Bellingen home anytime.

Casuarina Cottage is a wonderful home away from home. The space is very welcoming and clean and the hostess has been a pleasure to communicate with. Highly recommend 👌

Great little cottage, neat and tidy, has everything you need for your stay. Communication excellent

Everything was as stated in the description - plus so much more. The cottage was very inviting - fresh milk and plunger coffee, and a variety of different teas. Little vases of fresh cut flowers and beautiful views all the way to Dorrigo. It was very peaceful sitting on the back covered veranda, we didn't feel we were in suburbia at all. The garden has a lot of interesting and different plants and the cottage was well located for accessing everything we wanted to do. The Host Christine was amazing and very easy to contact and communicate with. This was our first holiday using Stayz and future hosts and properties have a lot to live up to to meet the expectations I will have for them.

Well appointed home, outstanding views, quiet location, close to town. Comfortable beds, everything you need for a great relaxing holiday Highly recommended

Perfect stay for myself with a participant who sprained her ankle and needed to stay still for a few days with her ankle iced and raised. The outdoor deck was perfect for this.

Christine’s place is simply lovely. It had everything we needed in the kitchen and elsewhere in the house. The little details like the fresh flowers and Easter eggs were appreciated. The house is extremely clean and tidy. The beds are comfortable and the monsoon shower was a welcomed surprise. The balcony is magnificent. On the balcony is a sitting area and dining area set up so we enjoyed using that space and the view over the mountains. The beautiful and peaceful view was truly food for the soul. The actual location of the property was perfect for us - a few minute drive in to town or to the river for a swim. Christine was very easy to communicate with and very considerate - she left the light on for our late arrival along with a torch and packed away cleaning products she thought my little one would get too.

Good.
