Betsey and Liz's rainforest haven really does exactly what it says on the tin. The sounds and smells of the rainforest are apparent from the moment you walk onto the property. Private and secluded are the feelings you have when in the haven, yet the centre of Port Macquarie is only a short drive away. Shelly beach is a beautiful stroll away from the Haven and the lighthouse trek starts from there. We were lucky enough to catch 30mins of whale watching from Shelly beach at about 6pm on our first evening in Port. The rainforest café boasts beautiful food and service and the boardwalk is not to be missed. We enjoyed a few hours at Tastings on Hastings, the annual culinary and cultural festival hosted at Port Macquarie and took in the welcoming/ easy going vibes. Will definitely try and stay at Betsey and Liz's haven on my next stop in Port Macquarie.. thanks again for having us ladies! Xx
