Description

Thaba Lapeng Mountain Escape means 'residence against the mountain' and offers comfortable self-catering accommodation. The accommodation enjoys magnificent panoramic views of the mountain ranges surrounding Clarens.

Thaba Lapeng is only 10 km from Clarens in the eastern Free State, on the R711 towards Fouriesburg, just before Surrender Hill. It is only 3 hours from Johannesburg, 4 hours from Durban and 2 hours from Bloemfontein and is an ideal stopover between the northern and southern provinces or on the way to Lesotho. It is great for staying over when visiting the Clarens/Eastern Free State area, or for attending weddings at one of the nearby wedding venues, or just for relaxing.

The accommodation consists of 3 fully self-catering, open-plan chalets which are adjacent to the main house. There are also 2 rooms which provide basic accommodation only which form part of the main house but have their own private entrances on the verandah.

The self-catering chalets each has a fully equipped kitchen with a dining room, a lounge and a bedroom set out on an open-plan basis similar to a bachelor unit. It is also fitted with an en-suite bathroom consisting of a bath, a shower and a toilet. All linen and towels are provided. Each chalet has its own braai facilities and porch. Cleaning services can be offered at an additional fee. This excludes Sundays and public holidays.

The 2 rooms are each fitted with a microwave and a coffee station with a kettle, coffee, tea, sugar, milk, rusks and mugs that are refilled each day. The Suikerbekkie room also has a fridge. All linen and towels are also provided. Each room is equipped with an en-suite shower, basin and toilet. There are no braai facilities dedicated to the rooms and the rooms are not equipped for a self-catering stay. Cutlery and crockery are provided and are changed each day.

All chalets and rooms have heaters installed with electric blankets fitted on the beds in the winter months.

A generator is available for load shedding.
