Clarens was okay, maar die karwagte was 'n oorlas gewees.

Kort nuwe matrasse en stort was alles nat. Kort nuwe patio-stoele. 3 was gebreek. Plek kort instandhouding.

Hi Cecile, I apologise for the dripping tap and the broken chair. I know it is ultimately my responsibility to attend to these problems but I also depend on staff to report these matters to me in order to get it fixed.
In this case it wasn't mentioned to me, so I am sorry about this it has all been fixed since then.

Die pad soontoe is baie sleg. Basiese goed het ontbreek soos toiletpapier en warm water.

Collett House weet wat die toestand van die pad is en behoort gaste in te lig daaromtrent. Die basiese goed het ontbreek en alhoewel hulle vinnig gereageer het op boodskappe kon ons nie warm water kry nie.

The road there is very bad. Basic things were missing such as toilet paper and hot water.

Collett House knows what the condition of the road is and should inform guests about it. The basics were missing and although they responded quickly to messages we could not get hot water.

The accommodation was quite acceptable, a few things that could be worked on.

We had no hot water at all during our stay. And the contact numbers given didn't work, no one answered. Upon checking in, we were shown the place very quickly. I feel like they could have put in more effort overall. We did enjoy having a nice view. The dog and cat were also very friendly, they enjoyed themselves.

Die fotos is baie misleidend.

Dit kom voor asof jou uitsig die berg is, maar jy kyk teen die huis vas. Geen uitsig. Daar was 1 glad, geen blikoopmaker, geen besem om uit te vee, of enige manier om as uit braaipan te verwyder. Daar is ook geen stoele op die stoep om buite te sit nie. Hoogtepunt: Pieksy die hond. Komende uit die stad gaan mens beslis Clarens toe vir stilte en rus wat ons ongelukkig nie ondervind het aangesien dit grens aan die informele buurt.

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

The photos are very misleading.

It appears as if your view is the mountain, but you are staring at the house. No view. There was 1 smooth, no can opener, no broom to sweep, or any way to remove ash from frying pan. There are also no chairs on the porch to sit outside. Highlight: Peaks the dog. Coming from the city one definitely goes to Clarens for quiet and rest which unfortunately we did not experience as it borders the informal neighbourhood.

Kort maar lekker.

Al waarvan ek nie gehou het nie was die mense wat bo ons gebly het, as hul loop dan kraak die vloere. En die persoon bo het my wakker gesnork Sondagoggend half sewe. Maar die diens en uitsig en gerief was uitstekend. Lekker kingsize bed. Dit was hemels. Dan het ons ook nie die WiFi kode of alarm kode gekry nie. Verder nice dankie.

All I didn't like were the people who stayed above us, if they walk then the floors crack. And the person upstairs snored me awake Sunday morning at seven thirty. But the service and view and comfort were excellent. Nice king size bed. It was heavenly. Then we didn't get the WiFi code or alarm code either. Also nice thank you.

Bekostigbare en netjiese verblyf.

Cottage was baie netjies, sou net vol vloer mat verkies (alhoewel daar is los Persiese matjies) vir winter-maande i.p.v gewone sementvloer. Asook eerder gordyne by bed se bo-venster verkies, blinds hou nie son uit vroegoggend nie. Maar sal weer daar gaan oornag. (Bedlampie vonke gemaak met die aansit) wees maar versigtig om nie brand te veroorsaak nie.

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

Affordable and tidy accommodation.

Cottage was very tidy, would prefer full floor carpet (although there are loose Persian rugs) for winter months instead of regular cement floor. Just as curtains are preferred at the bed's top window, blinds do not keep the sun out in the early morning. But will stay there again. (Bed lamp sparks when switched on) just be careful not to cause a fire.

Rock cabin lacked electric kettle, microwave, wet bathroom too small - toilet gets wet - no gas to make coffee.

Lovely view. Rock cabin needs maintenance - there was no gas to make tea. Electric kettle and microwave needed for self-catering. Room spacious, very nice bedding. No side tables. Bathroom door cannot close. No curtains for top windows so light comes in at sunrise. Electric gate has no sensor. Wet room not suitable for small bathroom.

Die verblyf by Collett House and Lavender Cottage was fantasties.

Ons was verwelkom deur Jane, nadat ons die eienaar laat weet het dat ons voor die hek is, sy was so behulpsaam en vriendelik. Die kamers was puik netjies en die res van die area was baie skoon. Linne was ook baie netjies. Dit was waarlik 'n 11/10 situasie! Sal definitief weer daar gaan bly!

Excellent as a base from where to explore the surrounding beauty of nature and of course Clarens itself.

If you are going to stay there ask Wolfgang to take you up to the mountain cottage from where there is an beautiful hike up the mountain. Or you can stay below and let the surroundings and nature soothe your nerves. That is what holiday is for!

Lekker plek om te bly, sien julle weer later die jaar!

Dit is 'n pragtige plek om in te kon bly in Clarens. Ons as gesin het dit baie geniet en die is regtig baie ruim vir 'n gesin van 6. Die uitleg binne is ook puik en ek sal weer hiervan wil gebruik maak in die wintertyd ook om na die sneeu te kom kyk. Dit is uit die hoofstraat en baie stil in die bo-dorp van Clarens. Wat 'n lekker plekkie die!

Sprankelend, netjies, lekker groot en rustige omgewing.

Ons het ons naweek in Clarens en die pragtige Golden Gate en die reis deur die Vrystaat terdeë geniet. Die uitsig op die berg van Collett House af is pragtig. Die huis is baie goed ingerig, netjies en skoon met 'n lieflike groot kombuis en 'n lekker braaistoep.

Lekker rustig, groot leef-areas; veilige parkering. Lekker man lekker!

'n Baie lekker naweek gewees en ek wil die volgende aspek net noem as 'n opmerking en nie as 'n klagte nie: die warmstort in die kleiner van die 2 slaapkamers was nooit warmer as 'n koue lou nie, en almal het maar in die groot slaapkamer gaan stort. Was miskien net 'n temperatuurverstelling op die gasgeiser wat na gekyk moet word?

It was a very nice weekend and I just want to mention the following aspect as a comment and not as a complaint: the hot shower in the smaller of the 2 bedrooms was never hotter than cold lukewarm, and everyone just in the master bedroom takes a shower. Maybe just a temperature setting on the gas geyser that needs looking at?

Hello Ray
Thank you very much for your review.
I just checked the geyser setting in Collett House and you were correct, the geyser settings had been tampered with. The water flow was set to its maximum so the water could only heat up to luke warm.
I adjusted the water temperature to its maximum and removed the setting knobs so this problem should not reoccur .

All you need for a comfortable self-catering stay in Clarens.

Lavender Cottage is a large one room plus shower, perfect for two or a family of four. Close to location so you can hear "township" noises at night, which may keep light sleepers awake. We felt safe and had all we needed. Flatscreen TV and DStv with sports channels was great!

Die verblyf was baie goed en linne van topgehalte.

Ons het in Lavender Cottage gebly en dit terdeë geniet. Ons gasheer Wolfgang was baie vriendelik. Ek sal enige tyd weer daar oorslaap en kan dit met graagte aanbeveel.

The accommodation was very good and linen of top quality.

We stayed in Lavender Cottage and thoroughly enjoyed it. Our host Wolfgang was very friendly. I would stay there again anytime and can happily recommend it.

Was kort maar lekker!

Ons et die koolstoof geniet, want die tyd van die jaar is dit lekker koud. Baie gawe eienaar... hy het gewag tot ons na sewe opgedaag het. Die linne was baie mooi skoon.

Was short but nice!

We eat and enjoy the coal stove, because this time of year it is nice and cold. Very nice owner... he waited until we arrived after seven. The linen was very nice and clean.

Pleasant.

The property is very close to the township. Also, there is no privacy - the house & cottage open up onto each other - one cannot open the curtains or doors with any privacy. The owner stays above Collett House and you can hear everything he does and every step he (and the dogs) take. This makes it feel very invasive. Pleasant but feels as though we have invaded the owner's space.

Collett House 's response

Hi Glenda,

Thank you for pointing out a couple of problems with regards to the guest house. Unfortunately, you will always be close to the township in Clarens no matter where in Clarens you stay.That is a fact and it can not be changed.
With regards to privacy, I am presently installing flower screens between the house and the cottage and the staircase to the house will also be relocated. The cottage will be screened off from the house. The upstairs flat will no longer be used when Collett House is booked. If you had mentioned your gripe during your stay, I could have done something about it immediately. You are welcome to inspect my efforts any time you like.

Best regards,
Wolfgang

Not what we expected.

Living in one room with a separate toilet is not what we expected. The bed and linen was clean, but the bathroom door wouldn't close properly and there were no tables to put anything on. Also a wardrobe without coat hangers is an ornament rather than functional.
