Heerlik. Gerieflik. Netjies.

Dit was baie lekker. Net warm en water was 'n bietjie probleem. Maar ek dink dit was 'n dorpsprobleem. Nie gastehuis nie.

Delicious. Comfortable. Tidy.

It was very nice. Only hot and water was a bit of a problem. But I think it was a town problem. Not guest house.

Vriendelik ontvang en alles was perfek. Sal beslis weer hier bly en ook aanbeveel aan vriende en familie.

We had a wonderful stay at Clarens Cottage. Lynda was very helpful whenever we needed any help. Perfect location within walking distance of the town Centre. An added bonus was an enclosed backyard to accommodate our dog. Will definitely rent the cottage again.

Netjies, skoon en gerieflik.

Die cottage is baie netjies en skoon en bevat alles wat nodig is. Hondekind kan heerlik op die veilige en omheinde grasperk uitspan. Beurtkrag begin maar orals sy tol eis, en kan soms die kouewater toevoer na die storte beïnvloed. Daar is voldoende battery ligte en kerse vir die donkerte. Sal graag in die toekoms van WiFi dienste gebruik wil maak, siende dat hierdie ons voorkeur akkommodasie is vir weg-werk naweke in Clarens.

Neat, clean and comfortable.

The cottage is very neat and clean and contains everything that is needed. Dogs can have fun on the safe and fenced lawn. Gravity is starting to take its toll everywhere, and can sometimes affect the cold water supply to the showers. There are sufficient battery lights and candles for the darkness. Would like to make use of WiFi services in the future, seeing that this is our preferred accommodation for away work weekends in Clarens.

The ultimate place to stay in Clarens.

The accommodation is outstanding and the fact that it is pet friendly and totally catered for is amazing. We have never had the same experience anywhere. Even little welcome Doggy biscuits. I see that the Cottage was awarded in 2021. It is well deserved and should be awarded again. Absolutely wonderful, and many thanks to Lynda for this fine and beautiful opportunity to stay in the Cottage. We will return.

Dear Velma,

Thank you for your review.

Apologies for the neighbour's dog. I would like to invite you to try Montroux Guesthouse which has the same self-catering facilities but located in a tranquil part of Clarens village and within walking distance to the town centre. I hope to welcome you to Montroux Guesthouse soon.

Regards,
Lynda
