Bellara - your home among the gum trees!

Bellara is aboriginal for good and what an understatement that is! In a beautiful and private setting on the slopes of Mount Gibraltar, Bellara is quiet, peaceful and restful. Beautiful treetops can be seen from every window. The living room has north-facing balconies capturing dappled sunlight through the trees and the dining room opens out to a large entertaining deck set amongst the gum trees. Venture a little further up the slope and you find the terrace complete with fire pit and a wonderful open-air setting from which to marvel at the night stars. With 3 bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs and 2 bedrooms and a bathroom downstairs, there is room for up to 10 guests. The kitchen is fully and thoughtfully equipped and the bedrooms are warm and comfortable. The property is fully fenced and pet friendly and there is also a separate garden enclosure ideal for dogs. Not far from the property are the fire-trails of the Gib, which make for excellent exploring, and down the hill; it's a 3-minute drive or a 15-minute stroll to town and Mittagongs popular cafes. Try the Shaggy Cow for great bakery delights or the Station Coffee House for famous coffee. A little further again and Lake Alexandra is a well-known local playground for ducks and birdlife great for picnics and walking the dogs. Bowral is only a 6-minute drive, yet Bellara gives you the distinct impression you are miles away from anywhere. **The Property Features:** • Fully equipped kitchen • Combined living-dining room • R/C air-conditioner and a large Vulcan gas heating unit • Large outdoor entertaining deck • 2 bathrooms (no bath) • Open-air terrace with fire-pit and gas heater • Property is fenced and there is a separate dog enclosure • Laundry with washing machine • Wi-Fi • High Chair ** Bedroom Configuration: ** **Upstairs** • Bedroom 1: king • Bedroom 2: double • Bedroom 3: single x 2 **Downstairs** • Bedroom 4: double • Bedroom 5: single x 2 One-bathroom downstairs and one upstairs. **Distances to:** • 1 km to Mittagong shops • 4 km to Bowral town centre • 5 km to Gibraltar Hotel • 6 km to Peppers Craigieburn • 7 km to Centennial Vineyards • 14 km to Berrima • 11 km to Bendooley Estate • 18 km to Southern Highlands Wines • 22 km to Sutton Forest **Linen:** All linen (sheets and bath towels) is supplied for your stay.
