nigel & laura are awesome hosts and the bell is a very warm lovely place to stay at. their apartment is one of the cleanest we've stayed at. thoughtful touches could be felt and seen throughout - freshly baked bread, wine, chocolates, nice toiletries, heaters around the apartment (something we truly appreciate during winter), electric blankets, etc. their recommendations for around the town were great too! we managed to see the penguins and even a baby wallaby crossing the road at dusk, based on nigel's guidance. for anyone contemplating booking the bell, just do it - definitely no regrets!
