Bells at Killcare

RELAX UNWIND ENJOY – three simple words that take on new meaning when you accept the invitation to explore Bells at Killcare. So often properties entice you with corporate slogans that fail to deliver. No problem here. From the moment you drive in, and see the wild bush turkeys having a scratch, you have been lifted into a carefree dimension. The staff are welcoming and helpful and this level of superior service was maintained throughout our stay. Our King Spa Unit was cool and spacious. Attention to detail was evident in every aspect. The big comfortable lounge chairs, the private verandah and of course the 2 person spa. And so private. After taking our breakfast at Manfredi’s we decided to take a walk around the extensive grounds. We were just in time to see a sea eagle swoop in over the large dam much to the alarm of the local bird population. So armed with camera and sketchbook we spent several hours taking in the vegetable gardens, fresh for the restaurant, the chooks, 200 eggs a week for the restaurant, the fruit trees and all the secret nooks and arbours of the formal gardens. We were discussing how wonderful it would be for a wedding when as if on cue we saw that everything had been set up for just that event. In the afternoon we sat on our private verandah with a bottle of Jansz, some good Aussie cheese, dried fruit and not a care in the world .. except deciding what we would order for dinner. We dined both nights at Manfredi at Bells. But that is another wonderful story.
