Unforgettable weekend with the most fantastic views from the cottage!
Lucy received us very kindly and Daleen the owner was in contact with us the whole time. The cottage's photos don't do it justice, it's much more beautiful in real life. Als in the cottage was spotless, attention to detail was amazing. If you were looking for something, it was there. Best self catering I have ever lived in. Nice walking distance from everything! Will definitely book again. I just wanted to sit on the porch all weekend and look at the view!

Nice family trip.
Nice house. Clean, tidy, very nicely furnished and decorated. Everything you need is there. For the Gautenians, the house is fenced, with burglar bars and an alarm. It is an easy walking distance from the Clarins Square with all the shops and restaurants. There is a TV, but the sound is a bit bad. We played board games so it didn't bother us. There is a washing machine, tumble dryer and a dishwasher. There is a yard where children can play. The place has stairs. Two bedrooms downstairs and a loft with 2 single beds. The beds have electric blankets. And one bathroom has a bath and the other has a shower. The hostess was very helpful and responded quickly to our questions. We had a little trouble getting to the place because it's not on Google Maps, but it wasn't too bad. It is on the corner of Roos- and Naudestraat. We will definitely use the house again. I can highly recommend it.

There really is nothing we could find fault with at Birch Cottage, the owners have really thought of everything. It is first-class hospitality that makes you feel so at home, but at the same time everything is "spotless" and beautifully furnished. The location is unbeatable, walking distance from the "hustle and bustle", but far enough for great privacy and peace. The view from the porch is incredible. We relaxed with the kick-in!

I.V.M. the email requesting feedback. 1. The WiFi's signal was very weak and actually didn't work at all, even though it says WiFi on the description. 2. The DStv was only available for 1 day. It didn't work on Friday or Sunday, even though the description says DStv is there. 3. A grill is needed to grill more. 4. The roof light in one room does not work, although there were lamps. 5. It would be more convenient with a lamp or two in the living room for a more relaxed atmosphere. The lights all work together so very bright or pitch dark. We did have a very nice stay. And thanks to the modern, clean place and view. The washing machine was also convenient. Grateful that they accommodated us with our 2 little bodies. Thank you very much.

Thank you very much for a wonderful first experience of Clarens. The house is nicely decorated and has everything one could need and more. I could see the owner has an eye for 'detail' with electric blankets on each bed, games, books and puzzles for adults and children, and even umbrellas available for when it rains. The house is ideally located within walking distance of the town and fenced with a neat lawn for the children to play. The views are beautiful and we had a great time on the porch during the day and in front of the fireplace in the evenings. Thank you for your part in an unforgettable experience!

Blissful escape from the city!
What a wonderful place! It's rare that the photos on the internet are true to life - as the English say this place is "what you see is what you get". The house is spacious and nicely decorated. The rooms are well furnished with fans, heaters, towels, blankets and even a hairdryer in the dressing table drawer. The kitchen is equally well appointed so guests really only need to bring food for their getaway. There is a stove with oven, microwave, kettle and toaster. For coffee lovers there are 2 machines (one big and one small). There is also a full fridge with freezer. Enough crockery and cutlery for 6-8 people. The nicest treat was the dishwasher with a few cubes for the weekend's dishes. The stoep is comfortably furnished with a table and patio benches to enjoy the incredibly beautiful view. I would suggest planning time on the porch when there is no direct sunlight - specifically in the summer it can get uncomfortably hot. There is a visiting area with picnic benches below next to the two braaiers (kettle braai and standing braai). Note that there are stairs outside and inside the house. There are about 8 steps up to the front door and then about 4 more steps down to the bedrooms. There are also stairs to the third loft bedroom. The house is well located and is walking distance from the shops and restaurants, yet far enough to not be disturbed by the noise from there.

Beautiful, neat, modern, fantastic location.
We have a teenager, a primary school daughter and a 4-year-old girl in a wheelchair and everyone had a great time. The cottage is beautifully decorated with durable furniture and cutlery. The location is fantastic as our teenage son could enjoy walking around the town by himself while the rest of us could enjoy board games. Our disabled daughter was absolutely obsessed with the cuddly blankets that were in every room and living area. The stairs weren't too much of a struggle for her because we could carry her into the house, she didn't need to go to the upper room and she could easily crawl down the few steps to the lower rooms by herself . The cutlery is top shelf and the knives are every chef's dream. We can recommend the accommodation with great confidence.

Birch Cottage is the place to stay if you enjoy the sunrise, the beautiful view on the mountains and the good location in Clarens.
We had a good stay and relaxed. The house is fully equipped for 6 people and everything is very clean and neat. The patio is great and also the rooms, kitchen and living area. The town is within walking distance but at the same time the view is great. The cherry on top is that the patio faces east so it is the ideal place to enjoy your first cup of coffee with the sun rising behind the mountains.

Excellent accommodation and location.
Excellent accommodation choice if one is looking for space. Our first visit to Clarens and our choice to choose Birch Cottage was perfect. We will definitely use Birch Cottage again because it is exactly and more what one is looking for. Clean, lots of space, walking distance, modern but appropriate for Clarens, value for money, undercover parking and so much more. Thank you Daleen for your hospitality.

Fantastic!
Everything was very tasteful and the view and tranquility are a big plus. People who cannot climb stairs may need to reconsider as there are stairs at the entrance as well as bedrooms.

Well located and neatly decorated with beautiful mountain fish and cuddly blankets.
The indoor living area is more spacious than expected and kitchen very functional although on the surface small. Guests who, by choice, budget or because of small children, cannot/do not always want to eat out need more kitchen equipment. Definitely more pots and pans and tea/coffee mugs as well as at least a filter coffee maker or more/bigger "plungers". A second oven rack is also needed. The first fireplace fire should be packed, ready to light, with a few extra pieces of wood on arrival. After that I buy wood with love at R100 a day. The fridge was clean but the freezer section had clearly not been defrosted and cleaned in months. Kitchen cupboard next to fridge full of pungent, toxic cleaning products. Instead, place it in your personal locker and leave room for guests' groceries. I had to buy extra toilet paper at R10 per roll in the "village", not acceptable, considering the daily rate. The same goes for the cleaner, the dishwasher soap bars, the fireplace and braai wood: (Penny-Wise-and-Pound foolish). Board games, darts, cards and jigsaw puzzles are always appropriate in a holiday home. Exceptional sunrise and sunset. What an exceptional destination?! Guest toilet or third bathroom essential.
