If you love the outdoors and bird watching, warm fire and just getting away from it all it is then perfect spot. A little dated but very clean and makes it very relaxing to enjoy with family and our little dog loved every minute. The position is perfect and the same drive time to Margret river as it is Witchcliffe giving great choices to go for a meal. Make sure you give yourself time to just sit and just take in the beautiful nature around this beautiful bush getaway. Possum friends come visit when sitting around the outdoor fire. The garden really makes it extra special too. The host is very helpful and it was a smooth booking leaving me to believe should we have had problems they would have been very available.
Excellent place to stay with family in the bush really lovely place to see kangaroos while still being close to the township. Loved the bowling area and the porch space for relaxing afternoons.
Bella Retreat had everything we needed to have a good time in Margaret River. Great location, only a few minutes of driving away from the city and its commodities and close to many points of interest such as the caves, the beach…
City escape and visited with family. Had a wonderful stay and one of the best with walkable to view wild Kangaroos and the kids enjoying outdoor play area.
Superb location, pet friendly, Bocce field, kids playground and big tyre swing, close to some of MRs clsssic wineries and the stunning Boranup forest. We had a great stay and would have welcomed another night. The weather played havoc for my mother’s 80th birthday but we hunkered down and got the fire blazing and the wine flowed. Happy days
We spent a lovely 6 days at Bella Retreat. Everything was clean and tidy and the kitchen is well stocked with spices and condiments and fantastic teas.
It is such a beautiful area with an abundance of wildlife and easy access to the wineries and beaches.
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.

Had a wonderful stay at Bella Retreat with my sisters, niece, Mum and her sister. So peaceful, relaxing and close to Margaret River. Loved the gardens, bushland and all the birds. Fully recommend for a lovely getaway.
We had a long weekend at Bella Retreat. It’s a gorgeous comfortable property set in the forest and surrounded by gardens and peace and quiet. Lots of extras, lovely and clean and great communication!
Bella Retreat was just what we needed. Close enough to town but far enough away to be our own little oasis. Would definitely come back again!

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 !
Beautiful and quiet setting in a fantastic location. Not 10 minutes from Margaret river and witchcliffe with plenty to do. The properties outdoor spaces are a plus. We didn't want to leave!
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.

My family and i had such a wonderful time at bella retreat .. the house was super cozy with the fireplace and had everything we could possibly need for our stay .. the fire pit ,playground and bush walks to spot kangaroos was just the kind of hoilday we needed . thankyou ❤️
Bushland Bliss: A Relaxing Escape with Friends and Family.
A fabulous retreat surrounded by lush bushland, where the sounds of birds fill the air throughout the day. We even spotted kangaroos in the nearby bush! The meandering garden pathways add to the charm, and there’s plenty to keep everyone entertained — including the "big kids." Inside, the space is well-thought-out, with ample seating and generously sized rooms. The two large bathrooms were perfect for a girls' weekend getaway, offering convenience and comfort. There's also plenty of room to enjoy some solitude when needed. We didn’t lack for anything and truly enjoyed our stay, creating wonderful memories. Thankyou Bella Retreat!

About the host
Hosted by Belinda Taranto
Blessed to live in Western Australia and in particular to own this beautiful property amongst the peace and beauty of the forest in Margaret River. We love that you can pop into town to shop, have great coffee, lunch or dinner and it's only a 5 min drive away. Or in summer, swim and walk on one of the many beaches surrounding us or have a long lazy lunch in one of the many wineries which are in abundance all around us. Winter warmth around the wood stove or sharing a wine watching the flames dance around the pit fire provide lovely memories.
Why they chose this property
The density of this part of the South West allows you to hop from award-winning wineries and bespoke art galleries, to stunning beaches, tall-timber forests, flowing rivers, world-class surf breaks and ancient caves – all in a single day.
The coastline around Margaret River experiences excellent surfing conditions. World renowned for their size, surfers from around the globe trek here annually in search of Hawaiian style surf, which they often find. Most reef breaks are within easy swimming distance from the shore.
World-class vineyards and wineries will tantelise your tastebuds like nowhere else. Responsible for only 1% of Australia's wine production, that small amount contributes 20% to the finest quality wines in Australia! Tours are in ample suppy which allow you to taste these wines.
What makes this property unique
You have 13 acres of redgum forest all to yourselves. Surrounded by peace and tranquility you will wake to the sound of birdsong. Experience hearing the endangered White Tailed Black Cockatoos as they fly by and see our native kangaroos roaming in the fields. With 2 expansive balcony/dining areas, entertaining your family and friends is a pleasure. Halfway between the township of Margaret River and the sea, you can experience both in a short drive
