    Fantastic spot to stay over, very central too. Next time we stay longer than one evening to enjoy the braai, and Clarens a bit more.

    What an amazing holiday home. My only regret is that we only stayed there for 2 nights. Would have loved to have stayed there for a week at least. Clarens is a gem and Golden View an awesome place to stay. Will definitely go back. Thanks to...
