Secure, spacious, comfortable.

The house is well stocked, and the location is very good. It is within walking distance to hiking trails and the town. This felt like a home away from home. The secure garden and space were perfect for our staffie. We will be back!

Baie ontspannend.

Habitat is pragtig, netjiese huis. Die eienaar is baie behulpsaam. Twee medium tot klein Bostons kon lekker vrylik rondhardloop in die tuin sonder om uit te kom.

Very relaxing.

Habitat is beautiful, neat house. The owner is very helpful. Two medium to small Bostons could run around freely in the garden without getting out.

Vriendelik en gasvry soos net Clarens dit ken.

Habitat is rêrig een van Clarens so skatte. Buiten van die ligging wat puik is, stil omgewing, maar tog 'n klip gooi uit die hoog Clarens-area, is dit 'n wegbreek, wat jy weet jou siel gaan voed. Die mooi uitsig oor die berg en die rustigheid van die area maak dit siels kos. Melisna is 'n puik gasvrou, en daar is niks wat haar smaakvolle Huis kort kom nie. Ons het extra kaas bord en ontbyt mandjie by haar bestel en dit was meer as wat ons verwag het. Al die persoonlike afwerkings en extra items, weet jy dat jy met iemand deel wat net jou volle gemak in gedagte het. Die feit dat die tuin ten volle omhein is, maak dit rus vir jou siel om jou viervoetige diere saam te vat. Ons het reeds die wintertemperatuur gekies (oor ons 4 voet kinders soveel hare het) en met die kaggel wat gesellig brand voel 'n mens nie eens die temperatuur nie. Baie dankie dat so 'n wonderlike plek met ons as die publiek gedeel word. Hoogs aanbeveelbaar as jy in die omgewing is.

Friendly and hospitable as only Clarens know it.

Habitat is really one of Clarens so treasures. Apart from the location which is great, quiet surroundings, yet a stone's throw from the high Clarens area, this is a getaway, which you know will feed your soul. The beautiful view of the mountain and the tranquility of the area make it food for the soul. Melisna is a great hostess, and her tasteful House lacks nothing. We ordered extra cheese plate and breakfast basket from her and it was more than we expected. All the personal touches and extras, you know you're sharing with someone who only has your complete comfort in mind. The fact that the garden is fully fenced makes it easy for you to take your four-legged animals with you. We have already selected the winter temperature (over 4 feet children have so much hair) and with the fireplace burning cozy you don't even feel the temperature. Thank you so much for sharing such a wonderful place with us as the public. Highly recommended if you are in the area.

Beste Yolandi, baie dankie vir jul positiewe terugvoer en dat jul tyd gemaak het om hierdie resensie te plaas. Dit is ons gaste wat ons toelaat om die manier waarop ons sake doen, voortdurend te verbeter. Ons is regtig so trots op die diens wat jul beleef het en dankbaar dat julle gelukkig was met die algemene ligging, fasiliteite en die spesiale bestellings. Winter of somer, Habitat bly 'n harte wenner vir beide diere en natuur liefhebbers en ja, die berguitsigte vanaf die voorstoep en kamers, is steeds ongerep. Kom kuier gerus weer en doen vroegtydig die sneeu dans. Groete, mooi bly. Habitat

Habitat is "Home from Home" - ons het baie lekker gebly en alles was perfek.

Die naweek het te vinnig verloop soos gewoonlik wanneer mens heeltemal tevrede is met waar en saam met wie jy is. Die verblyfreëlings was foutloos en Clarens was weereens 'n wenner vir 'n rustige wegbreek. Ons het alles by Habitat baie geniet en ons twee Yorkie-hondjies was ook veilig in die tuin wat volledig omhein is - baie dankie dat ons hulle kon saambring. Ons sal beslis weer by Habitat bespreek.

Habitat is "Home from Home" - we had a great stay and everything was perfect.

The weekend passed too quickly as usual when one is completely satisfied with where and with whom one is. The accommodation arrangements were flawless and Clarens was once again a winner for a peaceful getaway. We really enjoyed everything at Habitat and our two Yorkie puppies were also safe in the fully fenced garden - thank you very much for bringing them along. We will definitely book with Habitat again.
