Uitstekend, rustig.

Verblyf was perfek geleë met een van Clarens se asemrowende staproetes wat reg voor die perseel begin. Gasheer en gasvrou was 'n eerste klas gewees.

Delightful home away from home.

We had a delightful stay with Madeleine who is a great host and has thought of everything when equipping the apartments. The area is quiet, safe, just a short walk from the shops and restaurants and right next to the conservancy for those who would like to explore the beautiful area. There is a park run in the conservancy on a Saturday morning which one can join in on. I would highly recommend Meander Stay!

Great location for exploring Clarens and safe to walk anywhere.

Quiet location but so close to town centre that we never bothered with the car. The only minor detraction is the WiFi connection was very poor so ended up relying on cellular data which did have very good reception.

Pragtige hemelse plek. Definitief aan te beveel.

Die ligging is idillies en perfek. Rustig en vredevol en stap afstand na al die winkeltjies. Die wandelpaadjies is besonders, om nie van die berg-uitsig te praat nie. Ongelooflike gasvryheid, veel meer as wat verwag word met alles wat ons nodig gehad het en nog meer vir 'n week se hemelse verblyf. Die diere is baie spesiaal en steel mens se hart dadelik. Wens ons kon langer bly en sal enige tyd terugkeer.

Rustig, veilig, netjies en mooi uitsig

Ons was van die begin af hartelik verwelkom, wat net verbeter het toe ons in die LemonThyme eenheid instap. Pragtige en netjiese met 'n ongelooflike uitsig op die berg. Perfekte ligging: stapafstand van die plein af, maar ver genoeg om niks te hoor van daar af nie. Ek sal beslis weer daar gaan bly met my volgende Clarens reis.

Rus vir die siel.

Dit was een van dié beste naweke weg vir ons. Ek en my niggies is vreeslik na aanmekaar, en het hierdie wonderlike plekkie ontdek. Dit is vêr genoeg uit die dorp dat die hustle en bustle jou nie steur nie, maar naby genoeg dat jy enige plek binne 10 min te voet kan bereik. Dit is rustig, skoon, warm en die ideale rusplek met die mooiste uitsig op die berge vanaf die stoepie. Dit is geleë aan die voet van 'n berg, dit maak beskikking vir staproetes reg op jou drumpel. Regtig 'n wonderlike plekkie. Madeleine is so verwelkomend en vriendelik, sy het ons regtig, soos die Engelse sê "gespoil" met hout vir die kaggel, melk in die yskas, 'n blik vol beskuit en genoeg komberse vir Afrika. Ons het dit vreeslik geniet, dit was eerlikwaar rus vir die siel.

Rest for the soul.

It was one of those best weekends away for us. My cousins and I are very close, and discovered this wonderful place. It is far enough from the town that the hustle and bustle does not disturb you, but close enough that you can reach anywhere within 10 minutes on foot. It is peaceful, clean, warm and the ideal resting place with the most beautiful view of the mountains from the veranda. Located at the foot of a mountain, it provides hiking trails right on your doorstep. Really a wonderful place. Madeleine is so welcoming and friendly, she really "spoiled" us, as the English say, with wood for the fireplace, milk in the fridge, a tin full of biscuits and enough blankets for Africa. We really enjoyed it, it was honestly rest for the soul.

Pragtige, snoesige plekkie. Die kaggel was hemels Baie vriendelike kliëntediens. Madeleine is baie hulpvaardig en vriendelik.

Net 'n paar wenke vir toekomstige gaste: 1. Die kombuis benodig 'n paar breekgoed (veral glase). 2. Die kombuis benodig ook 'n besem en meer skottelgoedwasseep. 3. Meer toiletpapier is benodig vir 4 gaste vir 3 aande. 4. Bouers oorkant die pad het ons ongemaklik laat voel, tot by die punt waar ons gordyn moes toetrek want hul het in ons kamer ingestaar terwyl ons reggemaak het. Ons verstaan die eienaar het niks met dit te doen nie, wou dit net onder hul aandag bring. Ons het hierdie plekkie so geniet, dit was sulke plesier om by Meander stay te bly! Die bord speletjies was so lekker!

Beautiful, cozy place. The fireplace was heavenly Very friendly customer service. Madeleine is very helpful and friendly.

Just a few tips for future guests: 1. The kitchen needs some crockery (especially glasses). 2. The kitchen also needs a broom and more dish soap. 3. More toilet paper is required for 4 guests for 3 nights. 4. Builders across the road made us feel uncomfortable, to the point where we had to close the curtain because they were staring into our room while we were fixing up. We understand the owner has nothing to do with it, just wanted to bring it to their attention. We enjoyed this little place so much, it was such a pleasure to stay at Meander stay! The board games were so fun!

Dit was vir ons so lekker om jul te kon akkommodeer. Pragtige familie. Ons is so bly dat jul die cottage gerieflik gevind het en lekker gekuier het.
Rakende die bouery, gelukkig bou hulle nie oor naweke nie. Dan is als heerlik stil by ons. Daar is ook geen rede om onveilig te voel hier nie. Clarens ken nie misdaad nie en ons is baie bevoorreg.
Ons is ook bly dat ons bure bou want die opgradering van hul plek gaan pragtig wees.
