Awesome.

I had the time of my life, very clean and well equipped with all the utensils you need to make your stay smooth, great housekeeping and friendly staff. I would definitely do it again. The peace and serenity and what you see in the pictures is exactly what you get.

Tranquil, beautiful, safe, clean.

What a tranquil hidden gem. The interior was out of this world. The pictures don't do justice to the serenity of the place. You are literally sleeping by the river bank. I would advise that the host places a board on the main road by the sign S217. It would make finding the place easier. Otherwise, great stay and beautiful hospitality from housekeeping.

Stunning, incredible and breathtaking.

*5/5 stars, a blissful weekend escape*. My partner and I had a wonderful weekend at Kingsbrook Pods and it was everything we hoped for and more! Our room was cozy, clean, and beautifully decorated. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and we loved the private hot tub area with stunning views of the surroundings, offering breathtaking scenery. Our weekend getaway was the perfect blend of relaxation and romance. We can't wait to return and experience it all again! Probably with our friends this time around.

Heerlike rustige ontspanning.

Dit was 'n rustige, vredevolle tydjie in 'n goed toegeruste pod. Die Asrivier se kabbel het bygedra tot 'n lekker tyd van ontspanning.

Wonderful peaceful relaxation.

It was a quiet, peaceful time in a well-equipped pod. The Ash River's babbling contributed to a nice time of relaxation.

Romantiese wegbreek op sy bestel!

Pragtige pods met alles wat mens nodig het en soveel meer! Die kaggelvuurtjie, houtvuurwarmbad en hout was fantasties, dankie! Die lekkre badlakens, verwarming in die badkamers, en al die verskeie komberse was voorwaar 'n bonus in die koue! Kerse, bordspelletjies en staanlampe het 'n ongelooflike romantiese atmosfeer geskep! Ons sal vir seker in die lente/somer ook kom kuier! Dalk net 'n sambreel by die jacuzzi opsit.

Romantic getaway on his order!

Beautiful pods with everything you need and so much more! The log fire, wood fire hot tub and wood were fantastic, thank you! The plush bath sheets, heating in the bathrooms, and all the various blankets were truly a bonus in the cold! Candles, board games and floor lamps created an incredibly romantic atmosphere! We will definitely visit in the spring/summer too! Maybe just put an umbrella by the jacuzzi.

Wonderlike wegbreek langs water waar daar rus is.

Dit was 'n heerlike wegbreek. Ons was privaat, baie gemaklik en kon nie genoeg indrink van die skoonheid om ons nie. Die rivierwater kabbel so lekker, voel of jy heeltemal in 'n ander wereld is. Ons kan regtig oor niks kla nie en sal enige iemand met vrymoedigheid aanbeveel, en hoop om self sommer gou weer daar te gaan draai!

Wonderful getaway by water where there is rest.

It was a lovely break. We were private, very comfortable and couldn't take in enough of the beauty around us. The river water ripples so nicely, you feel like you are in a completely different world. We really can't complain about anything and would recommend it to anyone with confidence, and hope to visit again soon!

Fantastic spot right on the river - excellent base for river access for fly fishing.

Spent 4 nights at Kingsbrook Pods with my wife, sister, and brother-in-law. Celebrated his 40th on the side of the river! Fantastic location and pretty much the perfect stay, easy to find and straightforward access. Talitha was always available for any questions we had. Spent quite a bit of time on the river as well, with some fantastic opportunities for Rainbow Trout. Can't wait to come back after this first session to the Ash, we will be back soon. The fireplace really made things special over the cold weather we had. Thank you again to Talitha and her team.

Ons het die plek verskriklik geniet. Dit was baie netjies en gerieflik. Al die nodige toerusting was beskikbaar en die diensknegte was baie behulpsaam. Die posisie is in 'n perfekte posisie gelê en dit maak dat die natuur nog meer pragtig deur skyn.

Best Clarens holiday stay so far.

This is by far the best accomodation we have ever stayed at in Clarens. Accommodation was perfect, extremely clean and private. Only issue we had were the following: 1. The microwave did not heat up the food. Dont think it works. 2. The stove doesn't heat up well. Doesn't even get hot. 3. The kettle takes forever to boil the water. Other than that, I would definitely stay here again.

Peaceful, magical, a perfect getaway.

This place is absolutely spectacular, the views are amazing with fun things to do all around you - such as spending a day in Clarens. The check-in was effortless, the host and staff were very accommodating. With a tranquil and peaceful atmosphere, it's like something out of a storybook and a wonderful break away from the city to enjoy with your loved ones. The hot tub is also delightful, as well as the kitchen being perfectly stocked with cutlery and crockery that makes cooking a breeze. My only criticism is that the bedding was all singles with no option for sharing. I understand this gives more options for the host; however, having another option accessible would be ideal, especially as I was travelling with a partner. Other than that, I could find no other faults with these pods. We loved our stay and will definitely be returning!

A real gem, highly recommended. We would love to come back!

We had high expectations as the price was on the upper end, but this place exceeded our expectations in all respects. The design was well thought out, the finishes beautiful and the setting spectacular. The hot tub next to the river was a welcome addition in the slightly chilly weather. We could really relax and had total peace and quiet, the occasional white water rafters being the only sign of other humans. The only thing to improve is a bigger and more comfortable couch. Thank you, we wish we could stay longer.
