Rustig, veilig en gerieflik.

Dit was 'n heerlike verblyf. Die uitsig was mooi en die plekkie was toegerus met alles wat mens nodig het vir 'n week se wegbreek. Die gasheer en gasvrou was baie gaaf en vriendelik.

Gemaklik, stil en heerlik.

Dit was een van die lekkerste en gemaklikste plekke om te bly. Alles wat nodig was, was daar en Mandy het ons hartlik verwelkom. Selfs voor ons aankoms was inligting i.v.m. restaurante, regte pad om te volg en weerstoestande met ons gedeel. Die groot kombuis maak die plekkie definitief gemaklik vir 'n verlengde verblyf. Die pragtige uitsig oor die berge was 'n bonus.

Comfortable, quiet and delicious.

It was one of the nicest and most comfortable places to stay. Everything needed was there and Mandy gave us a warm welcome. Even before our arrival, information regarding shared restaurants, right road to follow and weather conditions with us. The large kitchen definitely makes the place comfortable for an extended stay. The beautiful view of the mountains was a bonus.

Skoon. Veilig. Ontspan. Fantasties! Rus en geniet! Love Clarens on Collett!

Ons het Clarens on Collett cottage ongelooflik baie geniet! Daar is alles en meer as wat mens nodig het. laat mens so welkom voel en sorg dat mens 100% uitgesort is en net kan ontspan. Mens voel veilig, mens rus en geniet die mooiste uitsig van die berge. Ons sal nerens anders bly as ons weer Clarens toe gaan nie! Dankie vir julle ongelooflike gasvryheid en dat ons van julle pragtige plek gebruik kon maak. Julle loop die ekstra myl vir julle gaste!

Ongelooflik!

Ons het heerlik gebly in Clarens on Collett. Alles was baie netjies en goed toegerus met alles wat jy moontlik nodig kan hê. Die tuin is 'n lus vir die oog en die uitsig is asemrowend! Die grondpad was nie goed op pad na die verblyf nie, maar ons verstaan dat dit baie gereën het in die omgewing en dit moontlik die rede kon wees. Die enigste probleem was dat daar nie onderdakparkeerplek daar was nie en dit 'n problem sou skep indien dit sou reën, aangesien ons met motorfietse daar was.

Unbelievable!

We had a lovely stay in Clarens on Collett. Everything was very neat and well equipped with everything you could possibly need. The garden is a feast for the eyes and the view is breathtaking! The dirt road was not good on the way to the accommodation, but we understand that it rained a lot in the area and that could possibly be the reason. The only problem was that there was no covered parking there and it would create a problem if it rained, as we were there with motorbikes.

Dear Widmark

Thank you for your fabulous review, we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay with us. We apologize for the state of the roads in Clarens, they are graded, but as you mention, the rain has not helped the condition. We hope that the view made up for the road. We are planning to erect carports this year to provide undercover parking for our guests. We hope to host you again in the not too distant future.

Kind regards

Vreeslik mooi en baie lekker.

Ons het baie lekker gebly. Die huis is pragtig en die honde het die groot erf baie geniet. Die stilte rondom ons was heerlik. Ons het net nie genoeg toiletpapier en asbliksakke gehad vir 4 dae nie. Ons Jack Russel het ook 'n paar keer deur die heining geglip. Ek stel voor julle sit dieselfde mesh wat julle agter om die erf het op die voorste heinings ook. Andersins was alles lieflik en ons kon nie vir meer vra nie!

Very beautiful and very tasty.

We had a very nice stay. The house is beautiful and the dogs really enjoyed the large yard. The silence around us was wonderful. We just didn't have enough toilet paper and trash bags for 4 days. Our Jack Russel also slipped through the fence a few times. I suggest you put the same mesh that you have around the back of the yard on the front fences as well. Otherwise everything was lovely and we couldn't ask for more!

Dear Chrisna
Thank you for your review. We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay and appreciated the tranquility and view. I apologize for there not being enough toilet paper and dustbin bags for your stay, and have addressed this with our team. There was a miscommunication with regards to the number of nights you were staying. It is a pity we weren't aware of the issue when you were here, as we could have arranged more for you.
Thank you for your feedback with regards to the fencing for the dogs. We have made a decision that until we can offer an environment that is totally suitable for dogs, we will stop advertising as pet friendly.
Thank you again for taking the time to submit your review.
Kind regards

Alles rustig en veilig. Skoon en higiënies. Ligging van gastehuis is weg van woeligheid van die sentrale deel van die dorpie. Die uitsig en skoonheid van die omgewing is baie mooi en dra by tot die algehele lekkerbly van die gastehuis.

Beautiful, comfy and warm as toast.

This self-catering unit (The Clarinet) is really beautifully decorated, spacious and has every thing you would need for a longer stay. Unfortunately the sound proofing between the main house and the flatlet (Clarinet) is non-existent and if there are guests in the main house the sounds into the small unit (and vice versa) are intrusive. Such a pity as this is a stunning place to stay.

Clarens on Collett 's response

Dear Leeann,

Thank you very much for your feedback. I am thrilled you enjoyed the venue.

I am sorry you felt the sound-proofing was not effective. We want our guests to be completely comfortable and enjoy every aspect of their stay. I would like to discuss this in more detail with you, so we can improve our current measures we have taken to limit the noise between the two units.

Kind regards,
Mandy
