Tranquility at its best.

The place is very nice and relaxed. A relaxed home away from home. It would be nice if there was charcoal added to the wood basket, and to check if the guests are in need of transport to the shopping centre for convenience.

Alles wat jy nodig het, netjiese plekkie en aangename gasvrou.

Wat 'n pragtige en snoesige plekkie. Ons het lekker, met 'n vuurtjie wat knetter, op die stoepie gekuier die aand. Die gasvrou was baie gaaf en het ons dadelik laat tuis voel. Ons sal die plekkie weer wil besoek. Stil en weg van die gedruis. Hou aan met jul goeie diens.

Beautiful, wholesome, clean, thoughtful!

I cannot recommend this place enough - the rooms as great sizes, each ensuite, the gardens are immaculate with an abundance of wildlife seen just next door, and the host, Grietjie - she is too wonderful for words, so kind, accommodating (allowed for early check-in) and gave us the best suggestions of places to go. The amount of thoughtfulness invested in this place, from having a games cupboard to leaving fresh fruit and rusks for guests. We will certainly be returning!

Grietjie needs to put something in place for loadshedding! The water supply works through a pump so during loadshedding the water pressure is virtually nonexistent.

Beautiful, peaceful.

I rate Francisco Guesthouse the best guesthouse in Clarens! They easily accommodate large groups, however, if you are a just two people it offers you enough privacy while still being able to enjoy what Francisco has to offer. The location is only 10 minutes drive from Clarens central. All the rooms are spacious and the interior is immaculate. The kitchen and open plan sitting room is the heart of the guesthouse. Making it a wonderful place to spend quality time with family and friends. The fully equipped kitchen means only have to bring your food and not worry about anything else. The gardens and entire property is beautiful and well- kept. Another feature is that it is so safe. A big thank you to the owner of the guesthouse, Tannie Grietjie. She made our stay comfortable, catered to all our needs and went above and beyond. I would recommend Francisco Guesthouse to anyone- you will not be disappointed.

Absoluut amazing!

Ons gasvrou het ons geskakel en die veiligste pad aanbeveel. Op pad het sy weer geskakel om the hoor hoe ons vorder en om verdere aanwysings te gee. Daar aangekom, is ons verras deur om 'n Nyala-kudde langs die huis se heining te sien. Die huisie waarin ons oornag het, was perfek! Slaapkamer, en oop-plan kombuis-sitkamer. Netjies, skoon en ten volle toegerus. Pragtige dik gras-tapyt voor en veilig omhein met elektriese omheining. 'n Ware juweel.

Arriving there, we were surprised to see a Nyala herd next to the house's fence. The cottage we stayed in was perfect! Bedroom, and open-plan kitchen-living room. Neat, clean and fully equipped. Beautiful thick grass carpet to the front and securely fenced with electric fencing. A real gem.

Selfsorg wat nie soos selfsorg voel nie, eerder soos pamperlang.

Die plaasopstal het nie bloot 'n gastehuis-naambordjie teen die hek ontvang nie, die plaasopstal is, in sy geheel, in 'n gastehuis omskep. Dit maak die verblyf, of jy een groep van 10 of 5 groepe van 2 elk is, net 'n plesier. Die elektriese omheining sorg vir gemoedsrus by die mense wat nie noodwendig midde die toeristemekka wat Clarens geword het, wil slaap nie, en eerder 'n plaaswegbreek wil geniet. We really had the best of both worlds.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Self care that doesn't feel like self care, rather like pampering.

The farmstead did not just receive a guest house nameplate on the gate, the farmstead was, in its entirety, transformed into a guest house. It makes the stay, whether you are one group of 10 or 5 groups of 2 each, just a pleasure. The electric fence provides peace of mind for the people who don't necessarily want to sleep in the middle of the tourist mecca that Clarens has become, and instead want to enjoy a farm break. We really had the best of both worlds.

Ons was 'n groep motorfietse op toer om Lesotho en wat 'n fantastiese plek om te bly. Alles was skoon, netjies en heel en ons gasvrou, Grietjie, het ons hartlik ontvang. Omdat Francisco 'n klein entjie uit Clarens is, is dit lekker stil, maar nagenoeg om iets te gaan koop.

Hier het ons tuis gevoel!

Francisco Gastehuis was werklik 'n gesellige tuiste weg van die huis. Soos hulle sê in Engels: "your home away from home". Grietjie is 'n ongelooflike vriendelike gasvrou wat seker gemaak het als was reg in plek vir ons. Die gastehuis het 'n heerlike plaashuis gevoel waar mens lekker gesellig saam bly in die een huis en kan kuier om die eetkamertafel met 'n lieflike binnebraai/kaggel. Die ligging is ook uitstekend, met net 6 km uit die dorp voel mens afgeleë en rustig, maar dit is ook nie te ver om dorp toe te gaan nie.

Francisco Guest House was truly a cozy home away from home. As they say in English: "your home away from home". Grietjie is an incredibly friendly hostess who made sure everything was in place for us. The guest house has a lovely farmhouse feel where you can stay comfortably together in one house and can visit around the dining room table with a lovely indoor barbecue/fireplace. The location is also excellent, with only 6 km from town you feel remote and peaceful, but it's not too far to go to town either.

Fantasties mooi en lekker, wens ons kon vir altyd net hier bly!

Ons was twee gesinne wat saam hier oornag het, en was aangenaam verras met hoe pragtig hierdie plaashuis is. Dis besonders mooi gemeubileer en was heerlik skoon en netjies. Ons is selfs deur ons gasvrou bederf met 'n "Marmite-tert", wat uit die boonste rakke was! Die omgewing is natuurlik ook pragtig en ons sal bitter graag weer hier wil kom oorbly.

Fantastically beautiful, wish we could stay here forever!

We were two families staying over for the night and were pleasantly surprised by how beautiful this farmhouse is. Especially the furniture is stunning, and the unit was clean and neat. The hostess treated us to an excellent Marmite tart! The environment is beautiful as well and we'd love to stay here again. Francisco is an unforgettable destination!

Uitsonderlik.

Pragtige opgeknapte plaashuis, ten volle toegerus. Ons is gul ontvang, en Grietjie het selfs 'n koek vir ons gebak! Ons het die stilte en rustigheid geniet, en gaan beslis terug.

Exceptional.

Beautiful renovated farmhouse, fully equipped. We were generously received, and Grietjie even baked us a cake! We enjoyed the quiet and peacefulness, and will definitely go back.

Wonderlike gasvryheid wat sal maak dat mens weer en weer wil teruggaan!

Die diens en gasvryheid by Francisco Guesthouse was uit die boonste rakke. Die netjiese, heerlike ou plaashuis het het 'n karakter van sy eie met 'n binnebraai wat mens sommer nooi om die aand om te kuier. Die kamers is pragtig en baie gerieflik. Ons het heerlik gekuier en sal graag weer wil teruggaan.

Wonderful hospitality that will make you want to go back again and again!

The service and hospitality at Francisco Guesthouse was top notch. The neat, delicious old farmhouse has a character of its own with an indoor barbecue that invites you to hang out in the evening. The rooms are beautiful and very comfortable. We had a great time and would love to go back again.

Fantastiese verblyf.

Dit was 'n uitstekende ervaring by Francisco. Die lekkerste koeksisters en OBS vir die koue het vir ons gewag en ekstra moeite is gemaak omdat dit 'n verjaarsdag naweek was. Die plek was netjies en skoon en so mooi. Gaan definitief weer van hierdie akkommodasie in die toekoms gebruik maak.

Fantastic stay.

It was an excellent experience at Francisco's place. The most delicious cookies and OBS for the cold were waiting for us and extra effort was made because it was a birthday weekend. The place was neat and clean and so beautiful. Will definitely use this accommodation again in the future.

Gamaklik, vriendelike personeel en 'n baie lekker huislike atmosfeer. Baie netjies, veilig en baie bekostigbaar.

Grietjie is 'n wonderlike mens. Sy het uit haar pad uit gegaan vir ons. Sy was baie verwelkomend en het sommer vir ons 'n koek gebak toe ons daar aangekom het. Ons het dadelik tuis gevoel. Dit het gevoel soos asof ons by die huis was. Baie lekker geslaap en gekuier! Francisco Guesthouse sal ons vir seker weer sien. Welgedaan!

Comfortable, friendly staff and a very nice homely atmosphere. Very neat, safe and very affordable.

Grietjie is a wonderful person. She went out of her way for us. She was very welcoming and even baked us a cake when we got there. We immediately felt at home. It felt like we were at home. Had a great sleep and had a good time! Francisco Guesthouse we will see again for sure. Well done!
