The place is very nice, neat and clean. The owners are very pleasant people and their guest freedom was excellent and also accommodating.
For a self-catering unit, it was excellently furnished with everything one needs. It's the first place I stayed at that even had an iron, hair dryer and stove with all the necessities and amenities. What was also very nice was that the owners make the most delicious cheese and jam and that's also a plus and will always recommend it if people book. I would recommend them anytime because the place's cleanliness is very important to people and then also the hospitality and then the fact that it has all the facilities far above other guesthouses. They are great and deserve more than 5 stars. Even the garden is also very neat. Felt very safe and definitely the best ever.

Very neat and clean. Lovely silence. Well located.
We were very well received by Mauritz and Ronel. Upon entering what was striking was how clean the place was. We were explained how everything works. Suggestions for consideration for the future: Shade net canopies for vehicles for frost and hot sunny days. Parking is very secure with locking gate. The hot water system does not have constant hot water and you are caught off guard with cold water after a very short time, while you still want to take a nice hot shower. Both are not negative comments, only suggestions that can only make the stay more enjoyable. The fireplace for the cold winter evenings was an asset to make the unit nice and warm. Experience no smells or smoke leaks, just nice warmth from the fireplace. Amber is definitely to be recommended if you are looking for a quiet, lazy visit in Clarens and surroundings. Many thanks Mauritz and Ronel for your hospitality. Be healthy and take care of yourselves. Until we see you again in the future.

The owner is very friendly, and the unit was very tidy. The solar system was not working well between all the load shedding and cloudy weather.
During our stay it was Level 4 load shedding. The solar system did not have enough battery power to keep the lights on during off-loading and also off-loading. So the WiFi didn't work either and the cell phone signal was bad. It would be good if people knew there is no android TV and no DStv. Take your own Netflix unit with you, but it will only work if there is power and thus WiFi. The unit is starting to require maintenance work, paint and cracks in the unit need to be addressed.

They use solar panels which I have no problem with, but bath water was cold and in the dead of winter, no electric warm blanket, just fireplace which is not good for someone with sinuses and doesn't heat through the night either. Kettle was full of limescale and dirt, had to heat water in microwave, used gas stove with strong gas smell.

Die gas geysers werk 100 persent, as daar 'n klagte was sou ek dit dadelik kon regstel. Ons is op sonkrag dus geen elektriese komberse of verwarmers nie. Die kaggel moet maar net hout kry om te brand. Die ketel gee soms van die neerslag af, gooi net die water af en dit is weer skoon.

Firstly there was no TV and they clearly advertise that there is DSTV. There are certain requirements I look for before I book at a place and DSTV was one of them. I see they still advertise full DSTV. Another thing that was unacceptable to me was that the sliding door could not lock, we have very expensive photography equipment and because the door that could not lock we had to drive all the equipment around with us every day and hope it was safe in the vehicle. Also slept very restlessly.

Very cute little house to stay in, but the door of the little house doesn't lock at all. You sleep with a door that doesn't lock and when you drive somewhere all your belongings are just as unlocked in the house. See in a review December 2020 someone complained about the same. I spoke to the owner about it and the answer was that it is "relatively" safe there with them. This is absolutely unacceptable. The toilet also takes hours before it is full for further use. Also brought it to owner's attention.

The booking was done without difficulty. Our arrival was well received and were in our unit within 5 minutes of arrival. The unit is very clean, has full DStv package, an outdoor braai area, inside is a wood stove for cold evenings and extra blankets and bedding are available. It is a 5 minute walk away from the central shopping area in Clarens. All that is missing are barbecue tools such as barbecue forks and barbecue tongs.

Very comfortable and well appointed accommodation.
The accommodation was comfortable and within walking distance of the village itself. Would suggest that firewood is provided for the first night only in winter. Supermarket and petrol station close very early and for travelers who arrive late it can be a problem if they have not provided for fire wood. Also suggest a bigger shower head, since the shower is so big, one can enjoy a nicer shower with a bigger shower head.

Cute little place, poorly managed.
Although I had arranged ahead of time that we would have separate beds, upon arrival there was only one large bed which was not moved until the next day. Toilet paper was not replaced daily and we had to ask for it. The grass was not cut and then it was cut while we wanted to enjoy breakfast. The place itself was nice, but the management and maintenance could definitely improve.

Thank you very much, Mauritz, for the good, friendly way in which you received us. The unit was neat and clean. The environment was quiet and peaceful, no noise. The bed sleeps very well. Two suggestions: 1) Maybe leave nice thick, warm blankets in the closet for those cold winter nights, or an electric blanket on the bed. We got a little cold, even though the fireplace was on. 2) Awnings or shade nets for the vehicles will also be recommended. Furthermore, excellent!

Other than that, our stay was pleasant and we will definitely book there again. There is a full DStv package and everything you could need for a weekend away.

Uses solar panels. When it is cloudy there is no power and no generator for back-up. Can't use toaster, hairdryer and power points in the morning. Warm water only available for the bath but not enough water for the second person to shower and vice versa. Washing area: Only a sink available and a drying rack for dishes - no plan for when water drips. No holder to dry cutlery in. The braai grid is too high from the coals and nothing to let the grid down to a lower point. Used bricks for this purpose and bad lighting on the grid. Grid has to be turned to get it out of the braai. To solve the problem you have to cut the edges of the tiles on the wall to make the braai opening bigger. I suggest the owners sleep in the units for a night to experience what guests experience.
