Thank you for a great stay! We stayed for a wedding so didn’t spend much time in the room but it was lovely to come home to and have as a base. Excellent location for wedding at Bells. Loved the croissant and jam too :) Would definitely stay again.
Excellent all round. Comfortable, great location close to beaches, quiet. Milk, bread, various spreads, muesli and four other breakfast cereals provided.
My husband and I thoroughly our 4-night stay at Amberlyn, Killcare Heights. We enjoyed sitting on the small deck in the sun in the mornings and exploring the area after lunch. This property was perfect for us, very clean with everything we needed for a relaxing stay. Thank you.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Nice an quiet. Very clean. Short stroll to bush walks (to the beaches). We were welcomed with different fruits which was very pleasant. Btw, the unit is at the back of the garage, so privacy is guaranteed.
A lovely place for a weekend of hiking in the area
Neat accommodation. Very comfortable and convenient for hiking in the Bouddi National Park. We really enjoyed our stay and the croissants, bread, cereal, fruit and juice left for our breakfasts. Only thing that could be improved would be a light or reflectors on the entrance to the private road, as it can be tricky to find at night.
The property was located in an ideal spot to complete the Bouddi Coastal walk, which was the main attraction for our trip. It was still an easy drive into Terrigal though. The property itself was clean and in a quiet area. Mike and Jeannette communicated well and it was a bonus seeing their goats! Would definitely recommend for a couple wanting to get away.
We stayed for 3 days. We were close to the beaches, ferry and local restaurants. The B and B had everything we required. Breakfast requirements were very good. We had croissants, healthy bread for toast, good range of spreads and drinks. The air conditioning was a lifesaver on a very hot day. We loved our time there and would recommend with confidence.
Location was fantastic for the Bouddi coast walk. Very peaceful. The accomodation was not very good. Old dated furniture and fittings throughout. Not a comfortable feel to it. Breakfast included is a stretch, a loaf of bread, cereal and milk and oj was pretty good but a packet of coles bake in the oven croissants with no oven? Not so good. No cooking facilities apart from a toaster and microwave, yes a barbecue, but not convenient. Hosts were lovely and helpful but I would not return as the accommodation was not comfortable, I looked for other places to stay while there but everything was booked out.
The studio had a perfect location to explore the National Park and beach. Quite, clean with all the comforts. We would like to have had a twin hot plate. Would be our pick to stay on our return visit.
