    Great for family and friends travelling together that like to still stay and entertain at home.

    We loved the entertainment area outside with the large table, braai and fire pit. The large spotted eagle owl in the beautiful weeping willow tree was a bonus! Great location, easy to walk into the centre of town to shops and restaurants.

    I loved everything

    The views are stunning! The kitchen is set up very well - many people can help prepare breakfast/lunch/dins around the kitchen table. The electric blankets were heaven! 12 of us stayed using the house and cottage. Was perfect! Walking distance to the town. And we even squeezed a quick hike Holkrans at Golden Gate.

    A perfect holiday destination.

    Nothing I didn't like. Noticed comments were people marked down their experience due to the condition of the roads... some are bad but I think the gravel roads just add to the charm of Clarens. We went there with two cars, one a suv and the other a small Hyundai i10. The i10 managed the roads perfectly - just take care though.

    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 Lizelle and her team for being so efficient and welcoming.

    At night the branches scratched the roof which created some noise but everything else was amazing!

    Loved the setting, the quaint decor and the feeling of being out in nature yet close enough to the Clarens town that you could walk and did not need to drive.

    The path to the house, seems you need a higher car and even walkway to the house entrance, need to be careful especially older people

    Well furnished. Comfortable and nice.

    I cannot say as I had did my research in terms of what to expect in the town. The roads were a bit rough, however it could all be put down to the rain experienced lately.

    The location was perfect for the weekend getaway with my partner away from the hustle and bustle of the big city

    Pleasant but missed the nature side of Clarens which we love.
    • Leisure trip

    • Stayed 3 nights

    The road the property is on is very bad due to the rain so our car took some strain. We stayed in the couple's studio and because we had people staying in the house above us we heard people walking the whole time and we also didn't get to experience the view that was advertised as it is on the house accomodations side. Some comfy outside furniture is needed, we were housebound because it was so uncomfortable outside and a wall blocked the view, so that was disappointing coming from Joburg.

    The apartments have all the luxuries and the finest qualities, it was very clean and comfy. Free Wifi and daily cleaning and a close walk to the main street in Clarens.
