Shani is a warm & friendly host who goes out of her way to accommodate any guest requests. My partner and I enjoyed our time at Mulberry Cottage. It's a private and peaceful haven only a short walk from the Main Street of Bellingen full of cafes, art galleries, shops and a relaxed hotel perfect for a drink & meal. We'd highly recommend staying at the cottage. Shani is a caring & easy going host who somehow manages the balance well of not being too intrusive on guests whilst at the same time shares her own life experiences & Bellingen tales & facts. There's a huge beautiful shower in the bathroom which reflects our stay experience as fun, rustic and chilled. Go and enjoy.
