Rustig met 'n mooi omgewing.

Dit is 'n oulike plekkie met baie rustigheid. Ons kon die spasie geniet, en alles was regtig netjies en skoon.

'n Stukkie hemel op aarde!

Baie dankie vir 'n baie lekker naweek by Forest Lane!. Alles was pragtig en netjies met ons aankoms, selfs met sjampanje in die yskas!. Wonderlike gasvrye mense met die mooiste tuin en dierbaarste drie Australian Shepherds!. Die ligging is ideaal as mens in die berg wil gaan hardloop of stap en die natuurskoon is net besonders. Sal beslis enigetyd teruggaan!

Rustig, netjies en ontspannend.

Verblyf was baie netjies en skoon. Reelings 100% sonder onnodige interaksie. Die enigste nadeel van die eenheid 3 is dat dit aan die huis grens en klanke van die kombuis word gehoor. Het baie lekker gebly.

Accommodation was very neat and clean. Arrangements 100% without unnecessary interaction. The only downside of unit 3 is that it borders the house and sounds from the kitchen are heard. Had a great stay.

Gerieflike oorslaapplek in die mooie Clarens.

Ons was bewus daarvan dat die stoepkamer (Eenheid 3) nie selfsorg is nie. Het egter nie besef dat daar ook nie 'n televisie is nie, maar gelukkig is dit nie vir ons 'n probleem nie aangesien ons eintlik selde 'n televisie gebruik waar ons oorslaap. 'n Baie oulike idee is die sleutelkluis by die elektriese skuifhek, wat in- en uitklok heeltemal pynloos maak. Ons het vooraf, per Whatsapp, die kode ontvang, asook die WiFi kode. Die stoepkamer is heerlik ruim, met 'n reusebed en skoon badkamer, en 'n mooi uitsig oor die berg wat vlak langs Forest Lane lê.

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

Comfortable place to sleep in beautiful Clarens.

We were aware that the veranda room (Unit 3) is not self-catering. Didn't realize that there wasn't a television either, but luckily that's not a problem for us as we actually rarely use a television where we sleep over. A very cool idea is the key safe at the electric sliding gate, which makes check-in and check-out completely painless. We received the code beforehand, via Whatsapp, as well as the WiFi code. The veranda room is delightfully spacious, with a giant bed and clean bathroom, and a nice view of the mountain that lies just off Forest Lane.

Dankie, Amanda, bly julle het die kamer geniet.
Jammer oor die TV, maar ons gebruik die pragtige uitsig oor die tuin en berg as 'n verskoning vir geen nut vir 'n TV.
Met die asemrowende uitsig en stilte, met net voeltjies in die tuin, wat kan 'n mens meer vra.
Groete uit Clarens

Gemaklik, vriendelik, netjies.

Oor die algemeen het ek baie lekker gebly. Die verblyf was net so goed soos in die fotos voorgestel, en self-check-in was maklik en vinnig. Daar was 'n bietjie watervoorsieningsprobleme in die tyd wat ons daar gebly het, maar ek verstaan dit is heeltemal buite beheer van Forest Lane. Helena was beskikbaar om te help en het vinnig vir ons ekstra waterbottels aangebring.

Unit met expectation.

Unit was comfortable and met expectations (web site). As a "self care unit" we received no hospitality from the owner, quite a bit of a disappointment. No suggestions of what sights we could see, just a few things via whatssup.

Mooiste uitsig!

Forest Lane is goed geleë, nie net omdat dit loopafstand van al die winkels en restaurante is nie, maar ook omdat dit die mooiste berg-uitsig het. Helena was 'n uitstekende gasvrou en enige tyd beskikbaar. Verblyf was baie netjies en veilig.

Mooi ligging, teleurstellende verblyf.

Forest Lane is geleë in 'n asemrowende mooi deel van Clarens en die tuine rondom word pragtig onderhou. Ongelukkig was die verblyf self maar teleurgesteld en dit wil blyk of die eenheid nie deurlopend opgeskerp word nie. Die 'king' bed van eenheid 2 is twee beddens wat teen mekaar geskuif is, waarvan die een al so hol gelê is jy kan glad nie die bed ten volle gebruik nie. Die stortkop is vlak en daar spuit twee dik strome water in elke rigting, wat die hele badkamer laat oorstroom. Die eenheid was ook nie besonders skoon nie en die badkamer/aantrekhokkie se ligte binne is vuil en vol goggas. Alles goed en wel, maar vir die meerderheid van 2 dae was daar nie krag of water nie. Daar is ook geen 'back-up' krag of water nie. Blykbaar word die water elke dag van 5 nm tot 8 vm afgesit - as ek dit vooraf geweet het het ek nooit by Forest Lane gaan bly nie, maar eerder by 'n hotel ingeboek wat darem die basiese waarde vir geld sou verskaf. Oor die algemeen maar net teleurgesteld en voel regtig of dit geld mors was.

This review is being shown in its original language.

Nice location, disappointing stay.

Forest Lane is situated in a stunningly beautiful part of Clarens and the surrounding gardens are beautifully maintained. Unfortunately, the accommodation itself was only disappointing and it would appear that the unit is not continuously upgraded. The 'king' bed of unit 2 is two beds pushed against each other, one of which is already so hollow you can't use the bed to the full. The shower head is shallow and two thick streams of water spray in each direction, flooding the entire bathroom. The unit was also not particularly clean and the bathroom/dressing cubicle lights inside are dirty and full of bugs. All well and good, but for the majority of 2 days there was no power or water. There is also no 'back-up' power or water. Apparently the water is turned off every day from 5pm to 8am - had I known this in advance I would never have stayed at Forest Lane, but instead checked into a hotel that would at least provide basic value for money. Overall just disappointed and really feel like it was a waste of money.

Forest Lane 's response

Lizandre, dankie vir jou opbouende en onregverdige kritiek. Ons sal daadwerlik na die stort en ligte kyk om te verseker dat dit nie 'n toekomstige probleem is nie. Wat die bed aanbetref, 2x enkelbeddens vorm 'n koningsgrootte bed, en al ons gaste het sover die kwaliteit van ons beddens en duursame wit beddegoed waardeer en gekomplimenteer. Ongelukkig is Clarens se water en krag probleem 'n SA probleem. Clarens het nie load shedding nie, maar swaar weer het die hele Vrystaat se krag onderbreek, wat tot watervoorsiening met elektriese pompe gely het. Volgende keer bespreek asb. by die Protea Hotel in Clarens.

Ons het heerlik uitgerus, Netflix gekyk en die WIFI het gehelp om werk af te handel. Skoon en netjies, heerlike koffie en beskuit was welkom. Uitsig op die berg met sonsondergange en opkoms is great. Die stort was lekker warm water en waterdruk belewenis. Gastehuis is veilig en naby alles geleë.

Thom, jammer maar julle het by ons opgedaag 'n dag voor jul bespreking, sonder enige vroegtydige navraag of dat enige eenhede beskikbaar is.
Ons het aangebied om julle te skuif na Eenheid 1 wat ten volle ingerig is vir 'n klein ekstra bedrag wat van die hand gewys was. Ten spyte van ons hulpvaardigheid en vriendelike diens, het jy aangedui dat julle by Eenheid 3 wil aanbly.
Jul bespreking is deur jul seun gedoen, en ongelukkig blyk dit dat daar nie voldoende seker gemaak was, dat dit wat hy bespreek, aan jul vereistes voldoen nie.
Eenheid 3, is soos geadverteer, 'n luukse slaapkamer met allles soos op die webblad aangedui.

Baie lekker en uiters vriendelike en behulpsame gasvrou. Sy hou jou ten alle tye ingelig bv krag ens.

Eienaar se kommunikasie uitstekend. Sleutel by aankoms, kragonderbrekings en enige inligting benodig. Sy beveel plekke aan om te besoek en het sommer net lekker geselsies. Wat 'n aangename mens en uitsonderlike mooi tuin, veral die rose.

Baie aangenaam, gerieflik en aan te beveel.

Ons het heerlik gebly. Die aparte huisie is stylvol ingerig en toegerus met al die nodige breek- en elektriese ware. Alhoewel daar nie 'n televisie was nie, het ons dit nie gemis nie. Die uitsig op die pragtige tuin en die voëlvoerders het bygedra tot 'n rustige en kalm atmosfeer. Baie dankie Helena vir 'n kort, maar aangename oorbly. Ons sal beslis volgende keer langer moet kom bly (soos jy voorgestel het) om die omgewing te verken.

Very pleasant, comfortable and to be recommended.

We had a wonderful stay. The separate cottage is stylishly furnished and equipped with all the necessary cutlery and electrical goods. Although there wasn't a television, we didn't miss it. The view of the beautiful garden and the bird feeders contributed to a peaceful and calm atmosphere. Thank you very much Helena for a short but pleasant stay. We will definitely have to come and stay longer next time (as you suggested) to explore the area.

We booked for two days. The accommodation is not suitable for winter stays.

The bungalo is very cramped and has little luggage space. The fridge is of the bar-fridge type. Hopelessly too small. There is not enough heating. No stove, just a single plate hob. Not suitable for cold winter evenings in our opinion. No barbecue facilities. A Weber might be handy. No TV. Maybe overlooked the fact - at least expected something?

The place is small but really beautiful inside with great bed and linen and lovely bathroom, and kitchenette is well equipped.

Unfortunately it is located on a relatively busy sand road and there is a lot of dust. Braai area is not great. There are many places to choose from in the price range which are larger and equally equipped.

Forest Lane 's response

Thank you for the good revue on décor, bed and linen. Unfortunately dust roads are part and parcel of small town living as only the main road in Clarens is tarred. The braai area is not for guest, but we make it available on request as a favour to guest on request as it is not on our webpage or advertised.

Die eenheid is baie privaat en het alles om 'n naweekwegbreek baie gemaklik te maak, soos die luukse groot bed, goed uitgeruste kombuis, elektriese komberse, elektriese muurverwarmer en gaskaggel. Baie vriendelike ontvangs en interaksie gehad met Helena wat uit haar pad gaan om die verblyf so gemaklik as moontlik te maak.
