CONNECTED
to Nature
Nadine Dilong shares her experience at Bells at Killcare’s Bells Day Spa, where she enjoyed an indulgent treatment rooted in nature.

ells at Killcare on the NSW Central Coast has everything you need in order to get away from the daily grind and hustle and bustle of the big city: Cozy cottages with fireplaces and big bath tubs to relax in on cold nights, an acreage with lush green trees and happy chickens who provide eggs for breakfast, and hardly any phone reception so you really get a chance to stop and unwind. But most notable for me was the silence. How wonderful to put your feet up and simply hear nothing, no cars, no people, just the rustling leaves in the autumn wind. Of course, this state of doing nothing could only be enhanced by a spa treatment. Bells Day Spa offers massages and facials using iKOU products, which are made locally by Founder Naomi Whitfeld, and from the moment I entered the little cottage the spa is situated in, I could tell there was a deep connection with the land and all the wonderful native botanicals it has to offer. I was there for the spa’s White Flannel Flower Sanctuary Ritual, a 120-minute body and face treatment. Inspired by the beauty and healing properties of the Australian White 60 | SPA+CLINIC
