Description from owner

Description

The Pouch is set on a two and a half acre property which is mostly cleared with some bush areas. Watch Australian kangaroos every day from the safety of your deck, which is less than a meter away from the waters edge. This bed and breakfast is fully self contained with quality inclusions. Your comfort is important to us so we purchased a large Queen sized bed. It is very private and quiet.

Breakfast essentials include cereal, bacon, eggs, bread, milk, juice and fruit. We also supply Di Bella coffee pods and a great selection of quality teas. This is the perfect place to unwind and relax. We do have a coded lock box for your key; upon request you may be able to check in early. The Pouch is approximately a 15 kilometer drive to the City of Coffs Harbour. Only 6 kilometers away you will find the Moonee beach shopping center for all your necessities (Coles, a news agency, bottle shop, chemist, cafes etc...), and there is a gym at the center. The local Moonee Beach Tavern serves great meals and there is a shuttle bus pick up and drop back service.

Living here we are very close to many glorious beaches, fabulous cafes and restaurants. The food choices around this area are amazing; the best pizza pasta on the mid north coast is at Emerald Beach just 10 minutes drive and the best fish and chips are in Woolgoolga. We hope to see you soon at 'The Pouch B & B'. Please drive slowly here, look out for wildlife, thank you.

Have a nice day :)

Getting around

There is a bus route that will take you into Coffs Harbour however you will need to walk back to the entrance of Heritage Park and cross over the highway bridge to locate the bus stop on the other side. The bus will drop you off just before the roundabout on the way back. Best to hire a car for your convenience as this is a rural community area and there is so much to see

Interaction with guest

We meet and great guests as soon as it is possible (often guests have arrived and checked in before we even realise). We do respect guests privacy so the only time we go anywhere near the B & B is to feed the fish every afternoon. If guests need any assistance they may call myself on my mobile and I will endeavour to meet their needs or offer my suggestions.
