Uitsig was spektakulêr.

Die plek was mooi skoon en netjies, presies soos die foto wys. Die uitsig was spektakulêr. Jammer dat die plafon nie klankdig is nie, want die mense wat bo ons gebly het het heel dag en nag heen en weer geloop en meubels geskuif.

View was spectacular.

The place was nice clean and tidy, exactly as the photo shows. The view was spectacular. Too bad the ceiling isn't soundproof, because the people who stayed above us were walking back and forth and moving furniture all day and night.

Wonderlike en salige wegbreek!

Ons het die heerlikste tyd gehad by Golden View Luxury Self-Catering. Die uitsig was iets buite hierdie wêreld en die kuierarea het ons lekker besig gehou met 'n knetterende vuurtjie wat die heelaand gebrand het. Sal met groot liefde aanbeveel!

I loved our stay here. The house is beautifully decorated and extremely comfortable. My favourite spot was the patio looking at the huge weeping willow near the fire pit, and looking at the peach blossoms. The linen was lovely, beds were so comfortable and I was at peace here.

Nice view, but don't know if it's really value for money.

Place has a beautiful view and management has given good feedback regarding loadshedding and water restrictions. But I don't know if Golden View is worth the money, walls are made of partitioning boards, no solid walls that offer little privacy. Bath doesn't seal so we couldn't use the bath, everyone had to use shower which didn't really seal either and the whole floor was full of water. Nails and floorboards are already pulling away due to too much water landing on them. Tiny roof fans that provide little relief compared to heat. Institution very close to informal settlement, many workers use the road in the mornings and afternoons which offers little privacy and which makes it scary to go for a walk by yourself. Golden View is close to the main street, but we used the vehicle rather than walking. Overall, our stay was pleasant.

'n Vreeslike lekker huisie met 'n baie lekker buite-area vir 8 mense om te braai en te gesels. Groot kombuis, mooi kamers en badkamers. Mooi uitsig en as die son sak weet 'n mens hoekom dit 'golden view' is. Vreeslike lekker twee aande met familie.

Ek stel nie die plek voor as mens in stilte wil bly nie.

Plekkie is baie skoon en netjies met 'n baie mooi uitsig. Al die geriewe is daar wat mens nodig het. Die enigste nadeel is die huis bo jou kan mens alles hoor onder en dit kan baie raserig wees veral as hulle nie stil is na 10h00 nie.

I do not suggest the place if one wants to stay in silence.

Place is very clean and tidy with a very nice view. All the amenities one needs are there. The only downside is the house above you you can hear everything below and it can be very noisy especially if they are not quiet after 10h00.

Goeie diens, skoon, mooi, netjies en ruim het 'n nuwe betekenis hier gekry. Ons was regtig verras met wat ons gekry het. Die personeel vanaf die begin tot die einde was vriendelik en baie behulpsaam. Die pragtige uitsig was net 'n bonus. Hier kry jy meer as net die nodige breekware, in teendeel kan jy kies tussen verskeidenheid van glase, borde ens. Iets vir elke geleentheid. Sal beslis weer hier bespreek.

Elke sent werd!

Ek en my sussie het vir 3 aande in die Rustic Red Studio gebly. Vandat ons bespreek het was die kommunikasie en diens puik en die kamer het ook al my verwagtinge oortref. Die uitsig is asemrowend - selfs nog mooier as op die foto's. Die geriewe in die kamer is skoon, netjies en goed toegerus en dis heerlik rustig wanneer 'n mens in die aand buite sit en kuier.

Asemrowend.

Die eenheid is pragtig en so goed versorg. Ons het ons huweliksherdenking so geniet danksy die ligging wat naby aan die 'square' is, maar ver genoeg vir stilte. En die lysie van plekkies wat besoek kan word vir etes het ook baie gehelp. Baie dankie.

Breathtaking.

The unit is beautiful and well-maintained. We enjoyed our anniversary due to the location being close to the square, but far enough to be quiet. The list of places you can eat at also helped a lot. Thanks so much.

Rustig en ontspannend.

Golden View is ver genoeg van Clarens se square om rustigheid te vind, maar naby genoeg om te stap. Die woonstel bo die Red Studio het wel baie geraas gemaak met die mense wat rondloop, maar andersins wat dit 'n uitstekende rustige naweek.

Golden View is far enough from Clarens' square to find tranquility, but close enough to walk. The apartment above the Red Studio did make a lot of noise with the people walking around, but otherwise what a great peaceful weekend.

Iets anders as die gewone en lekker stapafstand van die middedorp.

Die container-woning was nogal iets anders, die noorde-son skyn lekker in die eenheid vir die koue wintersdae en is gerieflik stapafstand van die dorp af. Geen TV nie, maar die kids leer ook vir slag TV is nie alles nie. Groot genoeg vir gesin van 4 en die twee enkelbeddens vir die kinders was ideaal.

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

Something different from the usual and nice walking distance from the town center.

The container home was quite different, the north sun was shining in the unit for the cold winter days and was conveniently within walking distance of the town. No TV, but the kids also learn that TV is not everything. Large enough for a family of 4 and the two single beds for the children were ideal.

Ons het vir 1 aand oornag oppad huis toe van die kus af. Dit was so lekker in die Rustic Red studio dat ons nie wou ry die volgende dag nie! Die uitsig en unieke dekor het ons veral beïndruk. Ons sal beslis weer en vir langer kom kuier.

Grotendeels ongaangenaam.

Hoewel die Rustic-eenheid skoon en aangenaam (binne) is, is die ligging onaanvaarbaar vir die prys en algemene veiligheid van besoekers - veral as die eienaars beoogde besoekers nie voor die tyd inlig dat die akkommodasie reg langs die informele nedersetting geleë is nie. Die uitsig uit die kombuisvenster bied `n wonderlike uitsig van die berge (as jy links kyk), maar aan die regterkant kry jy die uitsig van die informele nedersetting en behoeftige inwoners (nie ideaal vir iemand wat sy vakansie wil geniet nie). Verder voel ons bedrieg deur die aanwysings wat gegee is. Volgens gegewe aanwysings, ry jy deur Clarens om by die eenheid uit te kom (moontlik om die informele nedersetting en hoe naby dit aan Golden View is, te vermy). Maar as jy die GPS-koördinate volg, ry jy deur die informele nedersetting om by die eenheid te kom. `n Heel ander ervaring as jy van die ander rigting kom. Verder is die eenheid `n omskepte motorhuis, met nog `n eenheid bo jou. Geen probleem hiermee as dit duidelik op hul webtuiste aangedui is, maar `n groot skok as jy daar kom en wat veronderstel was om `n rustige wegbreek te wees, in `n geraas van voetstappe en hardlopende kinders ontaard - regdeur die nag. Verder is daar versoek dat ons die alarm moet aan en af sit, maar daar is geen aanduiding of die alarm aan of af is nie. Dit het tot gevolg gehad dat die alarm die hele tyd afgegaan het, en die sekuriteitsmaatskappy elke keer onnodig na die perseel moes uitkom. Weens die bogenoemde en dat ons onveilig gevoel het, het ons `n dag vroeër huis toe gegaan. Dit laat die vraag: hoe betroubaar is die aanlyn-resensies van die spesifieke akkommodasie en diegene wat hulle op hul webtuiste bemark.

Mostly unpleasant.

Although the Rustic unit is clean and pleasant (inside), the location is unacceptable for the price and general safety of visitors - especially if the owners do not inform intended visitors ahead of time that the accommodation is located right next to the informal settlement. The view from the kitchen window offers a wonderful view of the mountains (if you look to the left), but on the right you get the view of the informal settlement and needy residents (not ideal for someone who wants to enjoy his vacation). Furthermore, we feel cheated by the directions given. As per given directions, you drive through Clarens to get to the unit (possibly to avoid the informal settlement and its proximity to Golden View). But if you follow the GPS coordinates, you drive through the informal settlement to get to the unit. A very different experience if you come from the other direction. Furthermore, the unit is a converted garage, with another unit above you. No problem with this if it is clearly indicated on their website, but a big shock when you get there and what was supposed to be a peaceful getaway, turned into a noise of footsteps and running children - all night long. Furthermore, it was requested that we set the alarm on and off, but there is no indication whether the alarm is on or off. This resulted in the alarm going off all the time, and the security company having to come out to the premises unnecessarily each time. Because of the above and because we felt unsafe, we went home a day earlier. This leaves the question: how reliable are the online reviews of the particular accommodation and those who market it on their website.

Golden View Luxury Self-Catering 's response

Monique,
Dankie vir die breedvoerige terugvoer. Elkeen is geregtig op sy opinie. Dis jammer dat jy dit nie goed gedink het om tydens julle besoek terugvoer te gee oor byvoorbeeld gaste wat raserig was nie. Ek vra omverskoning daarvoor en sou graag die geleentheid wou gehad het om enige iets vir jou beter te maak of die situasie te beredder. Ons kan nie ons gaste kies op die perseel nie maar wel kies hoe ons situasies met klagtes/ontevredenheid van gaste hanteer. Sou jy gedurende die naweek jou klagtes geopper het oor jou ervarings, sou ek jou die voordeel van die twyfel gegee en het selfs dalk afslag of 'n naweek in een van ons ander eenhede aangebied het.
Ek is jammer die alarm het jou gepla. Ons sit dit slegs aan as gaste nie daar is en dit leeg staan en adviseur net die mense om dit te aktiveer indien hulle wegry na hulle besoek.
In 4 jaar het hiemand nog ooit oor ons ligging gekla nie. Die informele nedersetting is meer as 1,5 km van ons eenhede. Ons is egter wel net langs die dorp geleë en stap afstand van die Clarens Square. Die aanwysings en pad na ons eenhede is deur die enigste geteerde hoofpad van Clarens, wat logies die kortse en beste pad is. Ek weet nie hoe dit gekom het dat julle die langer pad deur die nedersetting wou ry nie.
Ons adverteer nie 'n losstaande eenheid nie. Dit is 'n "Studio" soos die naam ook akkuraat sê vir 2 mense en nie 'n huis of kothuis nie. My ander resensies getuig wel dat ander mense 'n ander opinie het oor ons plek. Dié resensies is deur egte gaste met egte terugvoer ingedien. Indien jy volgende keer ongelukkig is, neem jou klagtes gerus na die bestuur sodat iemand iets daaraan kan doen om dinge beter te maak, aangesien mens na die tyd nie veel kan doen nie.
Groete,
Jolena
Eienaar

Perfekte eerste bestemming op ons honeymoon.

Golden View Luxury Self Catering was die perfekte eerste stop op ons honeymoon! Ons het in die Rustic studio gebly. Alles was skoon en netjies, en die plek is mooi, modern, karaktervol en toegerus met alles wat ons nodig gehad het. Alhoewel die eienaars nie op die perseel bly nie het hulle vir ons maklike instruksies gegee om ons kamersleutels te bekom. Daar was daagliks skoonmakers wat ons kamers netjies gehou het en ons beddegoed gewas het. Hulle was baie hulpvaardig en vriendelik en het ons ook gehelp om ons eie klere te was. Die kombuis en stoepie het 'n pragtige uitsig oor die Drakensberge, en veral die sonopkoms oor die berge in die oggend. Ons het 'n hele paar oggende op die stoepie deurgebring. Die munisipale pad wat lei na die huisie is 'n grondpad (soos die res van die paaie in Clarens) en was effens verspoel, maar nie te erg dat ons dit nie met 'n klein karretjie kon begaan nie. Die eienaars was meer as bereid om ons telefonies te help met raad oor besienswaardighede en restaurante in die omtrek. Ons het 'n heerlike paar aande by Golden View spandeer en dit was loshande een van die hoogtepunte van ons honeymoon. Ek sal die plek vir enigiemand aanraai, veral vir 'n couple wat soek vir 'n rustige wegbreek.

Perfect first destination on our honeymoon.

Golden View Luxury Self Catering was the perfect first stop on our honeymoon! We stayed in the Rustic studio. Everything was clean and tidy, and the place is beautiful, modern, full of character and equipped with everything we needed. Although the owners do not live on site they gave us easy instructions to obtain our room keys. There were daily cleaners who kept our rooms tidy and washed our bedding. They were very helpful and friendly and also helped us wash our own clothes. The kitchen and porch have a beautiful view of the Drakensberg, and especially the sunrise over the mountains in the morning. We spent quite a few mornings on the porch. The municipal road that leads to the cottage is a dirt road (like the rest of the roads in Clarens) and was slightly washed out, but not too bad that we couldn't pass it with a small car. The owners were more than willing to help us over the phone with advice on attractions and restaurants in the area. We spent a lovely few nights at Golden View and it was hands down one of the highlights of our honeymoon. I would recommend the place to anyone, especially a couple looking for a peaceful getaway.

Golden View was die perfekte verblyf vir ons klomp vriendinne, die uitsig was sprokiesmooi en die huis met sy eie karakter was 'n bonus.

Golden View is geleë op die beste bestemming ooit, as jy vroeg in die oggend buite op die stoep sit kyk jy vas teen die majestueuse berge van Clarens wat jou omring met hul eie natuurprag. Die huis is baie modern, netjies en ten volle toegerus. Wat 'n onbeskryflike belewenis en avontuur het ons nie beleef by die pragtige plekkie nie. Nogmals dankie, ons sal beslis weer kom kuier.

Nice view of the mountain and valley but a lot of pedestrian traffic and noise in the evening from people living in the valley.

The owner Jolena was lovely to deal with and very helpful. The place is perfect if you have young children. Rooms very comfortable and staff were friendly and did a good cleaning job.

Good day Anne,

Thank you for the review and compliments on our service and cleanliness! I am glad you enjoyed your weekend and stay with us.

My apologies that the people in the valley were a bit noisy over your weekend and that you felt it impacted on your peace. There are some weekends when there is festivities going on in the village but it happens only a few times a year.

I hope your stay at Golden View Oak on Church was good as well as it is further away from the village!

Regards,
Jolena

Lekker rustig.

Die verblyf was presies wat ons verwag het. Die eenheid is goed toegerus met alles wat mens nodig het.

Wasn't what I expected, but still okay.

Gas geyser for shower facilities was a problem, but at least it was solved. Not a nice experience to get into the shower early in the morning in Clarens and then only get cold water.

Lekker as ek net sou oorslaap.

Ek was in die rooi kamer, of the wel 'studio'. Dit was so koud mens kon nie buite sit om die berge te kyk nie, want van binne af op die bank reg langs die verwarmer waar dit lekker was voor jou sien jy net die blou lug deur die venster wat te hoog is. Die mooi foto is van buite geneem. Ek sal eerder een van die ander kamers gevat het, ek dink hierdie is bietjie ingedruk.

Nice if I would just sleep over.

I was in the red room, or rather 'studio'. It was so cold you couldn't sit outside to look at the mountains, because from inside on the bench right next to the heater where it was nice in front of you you only see the blue sky through the window which is too high. The beautiful photo was taken from outside. I would have taken one of the other rooms instead, I think this one is a bit cramped.

Baie skoon, netjies, mooi uitsig, goed geleë, is nog beter as op die foto's.

Lanklaas in so 'n skoon/netjiese verblyf gebly. Dit het al ons verwagtinge oortref. Sal vir seker weer teruggaan.

Netjies en modern, maar kort nog werk ten opsigte van 'n paar praktiese reëlings.

Netjies en modern. Effens onprakties ten opsigte van privaatheid en sekuriteit. Die onderste woonstel vind beweging van enige aard in die boonste woonstelle steurend.

Dankie vir die terugvoering! Ons neem kennis van die wenke en wil graag noem wat ons beplan of reeds in proses gestel het:
Ons het eers onlangs die heining voor bygevoeg vir meer privaatheid en beplan om dit verder meer privaat te maak. Ek is nie seker of julle daar was voor/na die oprig van die heining?
Ons is verder ook van plan om 'n addisionele plafon met klank digtheid te installeer om die deurlating van klank van die boonste vloere te beperk. Ons hoop dit gaan dit meer prakties en steurnisvry maak!

Gemaklik, gerieflik en bietjie iets anders.

Ek's bly sulke plekkies kom nou meer op die been, ek bedoel meer volhoubare plekkies wat nie baie energie verbruik nie, wat bietjie meer groen is, maar nog steeds gemaklik bly. Die huisie het alles gehad wat ons nodig het en was perfek vir 'n familie van 4 vir 'n langer naweek. Sal dit definitief aanbeveel. Baie dankie.

Easy, convenient and a little something different.

I'm glad that more places like this are coming up now, I mean more sustainable places that don't consume a lot of energy, that are a little more green, but still remain comfortable. The cottage had everything we needed and was perfect for a family of 4 for a longer weekend. Would definitely recommend it. Thank you very much.

Netjies, maar baie warm binne en die stort werk nie.

Die plek is ver te duur vir wat jy kry. Daar is 'n probleem met die stort se uitlaat sowel as die gas geiser wat nie gewerk het nie.

Neat, but very hot inside and the shower doesn't work.

The place is way overpriced for what you get. There is a problem with the shower outlet as well as the gas geyser which did not work.

Die stort was 'n probleem ek vra groot om verskoning daarvoor. Die loodgieter het alles vroeër die week reggestel!

Dit werk wel duur uit as net 2 gaste bespreek, maar ongelukkig bly dit steeds 'n 2-slaapkamer eenheid wat 4 gaste kan akkommodeer. Probeer gerus volgende keer ons nuwe eenheid (met 'n gewone geyser) wat net 2 gaste kan akkommodeer.

Burglary at the property next door at 24h00 at night made it uncomfortable.

The unit is really very nice and comfortable. It's just a shame about the burglary that happened next door. We didn't sleep well. We did really enjoy the big bath and Clarens' places to eat are great.
