What a lovely place to rest our heads.
We arrived to our stay in Robe, and it was lovely, peaceful, and clean. We were greeted by Bella the house pooch, and she was just a bundle of joy, lots of pats! We let ourselves in, and the house was immaculate. Food & Drinks in the fridge, bed perfect, and entertainment all ready for us. We took our pooch for a walk, and when we arrived home Claud (the owner) was home and we struck up a conversation, he was very welcoming and even accepting of my Tesla car being charged on site, which was a massive stress i didn't have to worry about getting to our next destination. We honestly couldn't recommend Bella's retreat any higher. It was a lovely stay.

Perfectly located bush cabin so close to Robe.
Tastefully and thoughtfully decorated bush cabin 3 minutes from Robe town centre. Couldn't be better for a couple wanting quiet and touches of luxury. We'll be back.

Genial Bella's Retreat
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Bella's Retreat, so a HUGE "thank you" to our hosts.The clean cabin comfortably catered all our needs and the roof mounted solar panels were a welcome bonus that tickled the greenies in us.The bed made sleeping easy, not to mention the abundant peace and quiet. The shower provided plenty of water pressure and hot water. The A/C easily cooled the cabin, the fridge and freezer were more than adequate, the cooktop and wok did a better job of my stir-fries than my own kit! The Wi-Fi was super-awesome (actually made me a little envious) enabling us to enjoy our many streaming services from my tablet connected to the HDMI port on the TV.Bella, a gorgeous German (Wirehaired?) Pointer was always there to greet us, happily wagging her tail every time we pulled in, and every morning she patiently waited on the porch for us to emerge just so she could say hello.Joy and Claud ensured we had everything we needed, and were incredibly accommodating in helping me find the best spot to mount a camera to shoot time lapse videos of the night sky.Our excursions included: - Cape Jaffa - 90 min Robe Boat Coastal Tour - Robe Obelisk - Beachport Old Wool & Grain Store Museum - Tantanoola Caves - Naracoorte Caves National Park - Mt Gambier Valley Lake and the stunning Blue Lake - Umpherston Sinkhole/Balumbul - Humpalicious Camel Farm - Wangolina winesWe had one day of rain so missed out on taking a dip in Pool Of Siloam - next time!

Terrible and Traumatic
Don’t stay here. The property is not pet friendly due to their dog, which attacked my dog and me. It wasn’t quiet, as the owner held a late night party. The owner reluctantly agreed to keep their dog inside, but then let the dog out at night. I did not feel safe. I booked for three nights. I left at midnight on the first night, driving home to Adelaide.

Excellent location and facilities
This accommodation was excellent in so many ways. The room was quiet, very clean and had extra goodies in the fridge upon arrival. We were greeted at reception and informed about all the local eateries and places to visit. The location was great - close to the town center and the river/beach areas. Very enjoyable one-night stay.

Everything you need in a peaceful setup. A quick drive from the shops and restaurants in Robe. The directions to the cabin texted to us seemed to be inaccurate. The cabin was well equipped and hada small kitchenette with electric stovetop, microwave, hotwater boiler, utensils etc. Overall a nice place to stay in Robe, especially if you are looking for dog friendly options. Check in at 4pm is quite late and not really convenient to be honest.

A bit over a 1km walk into the main street. Nice and quiet, our dog loved it. Bella the resident hound would pop over to keep an eye on things. Would definitely book again.
