About this property
Bella Retreat - Peace & seclusion in redgum forest
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.
Very proud to awarded 'Superhost' status by Airbnb!

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.
