Clarence breaks away.
We decided at the last minute to visit Clarens and chose Cottage Pie as accommodation. Only the Log Cabin was available of the 4 x units. Although the outside of the cabin looks a little tired, everything was neat, clean and comfortable inside. Cottage Pie is well located very close to the walking trails.

The log cabin was my last sleepover before my months-long road trip came to an end. The view is up the mountain, lovely.
It exceeded my expectations of a log cabin in the middle of winter in the Free State. I never met hostess Karen in person. She only communicated via WhatsApp. The bed was very comfortable. Electric blanket was a big plus as was the gas heater. The kitchen was so equipped that you could make food and coffee in the midst of loadshedding, which is a big plus. After a day of exploring and walking around, the log cabin was really a cozy "coming home" place to stay.

We went to Clarens for our honeymoon and just have to say that Cottage Pie really impressed us.
The cottage was neat and clean and located in a very nice place (not in the hustle and bustle of the town). We stayed in the upper thatched roof room, and we really enjoyed it. The customer service was also great - I communicated with the owner (Karen) on Whatsapp and she kept us informed about everything. Would definitely recommend Cottage Pie!

Stylish, but be prepared for loadshedding!
The establishment is advertised as pet friendly, but just make sure they have read the messages beforehand if you are trying to arrange for pets. They were surprised when we arrived with a dog and a cat. But the stay was still very nice. The wooden house sits at the foot of a mountain, and has a small garden in front, with lovely seating and a barbecue area next to a stream. The only thing that could make our stay better is if there was a gas stove as well. It was very cold the 2 nights we were there, and with loadshedding in the evening you really just want to be able to drink a cup of coffee. Furthermore, it was lovely, picture-perfect and very clean and tidy.

The stay period at Cottage Pie was wonderful. The photos on the page do not show the real beautiful picture that the place is in person. The service was good and the room very nice and cozy. The only setback was the location against the mountain (although very beautiful) which affects the signal and the temperature (in the winter months).

So jammer om te hoor van jou klagtes.
Die Houthuisie, Rustic Wooden Cabin, word duidelik geadverteer geen Wi-Fi en geen TV. Jy het nooit tydens julle kuier met my gekommunikeer in verband met enige navrae of versoeke nie, so ek kon gevolglik geen verduideliking aanbied nie.
Ons is altyd meer as bereid om ons gaste dadelik by te staan met versoeke. Gesels gerus volgende keer sommer dadelik met my as daar enige iets is waarmee ek kan help.
Tot volgende keer, bly gesond en gelukkig.

Sonder twyfel die heerlikste akkommodasie-ervaring wat ek al gehad het met 'n klein gesin. Kan die Cottage Pie-familie-eenheid nie genoeg aanbeveel nie.

Without a doubt the most wonderful accommodation experience I have had with a small family. Can't recommend the Cottage Pie family unit enough.
The family unit at Cottage Pie is a fully equipped house full of character, which was absolutely perfect for our family of 5, with beautiful, spacious and 'cozy' rooms. Thanks to two coal stoves, the whole house is wonderfully heated; and with the garden literally bordering the nature reserve, we couldn't have asked for more. Karen was so kind and hospitable, it was truly an unforgettable experience. We will see the Cottage Pie again for sure!

From the moment you walk in, it's only more impressive with every step. The family unit is eclectically furnished with so many interesting pieces. The outside garden is surely a hiding place for fairies.

Nice and beautiful on the mountain! A peaceful getaway.
The peaceful destination is excellent for a family with small children. There is plenty of space in the beautiful garden for running around and having fun playing. Very tidy and Karen and her team are very friendly. One experiences the beauty and tranquility of Clarens here more than close to the town, but it is a bit far for a quick walk to go eat something, etc. Thank you! We will probably see you again!

The place is nice and quiet if you don't want a TV.
No fault with accommodation, but if you turn off the main road (tarred road), the dirt road is very bad for your car.

The accommodation was clean, however the location was right next to the nature conservancy at the end of a poor condition dirt road, which was compounded by being too far to walk to the village centre.

Cottage Pie 's response
Hi Sue,
Thank you for staying with us at Cottage Pie.
The Upstairs Under Thatch room is advertised as a room with only heat and eat facilities and a bath and no mention of a shower in the en-suite bathroom, sorry if you miss read that.
We are happy that we could upgrade you, for free, for the one night to a bigger Ground level Bedsitter unit with a shower.
Next time you will know what to book and we look forward to welcoming you back.
Kindest regards,
Karen

Beautiful, peaceful place where we can relax and now recharge batteries.
If you survive the absolutely awful, almost impassable, excuse for a road, you'll find this gem of a place. Everything is clean and tidy with a carafe of port or sherry to welcome you. The unit was cleaned daily when we checked out. I can confidently recommend it.

Soul food and tranquility by the mountain.
If you are looking for peace and quiet in the most beautiful garden by the mountain, Cottage Pie is the place for you. The Family Unit feels like a home away from home with antique beautiful furnishings and a lovely kitchen. WiFi was a bonus with teenagers. We had such a good time, reading with a glass port in the hand on the bank of the river and just recharging batteries. Thank you for a wonderful visit.
