    "Pet facilities, cleanliness and location near walks"

  • "Clean, well equipped cottage."

    28 November 2017

    "A spotless clean cottage. Equipped with everything one would expect plus much more, and on top of it, high quality utensils in the kitchen and furniture throughout. I think though that the best of all is, there were no odours from the bedding, pillows, towels, etc. One thing which could be looked at, is burglar bars at the opening windows and security doors / gates. All in all, a wonderful stay. Thank you."

  • "Comfort and value"

    02 November 2017

    "Loved how every basic necessity was catered for. Cats were happy in the garage area. Beds comfortable and got a good nights rest. School across the road and dogs next door can be noisy if you want to sleep in. Glass on road facing windows is tinted yet you can easily see in at night from the outside and barely see out in from the inside, so keep that in mind. These are small things really, all in all it was a pleasant stay and Ill happily use it again and encourage my friends and family to use it too."

    16 August 2016

A secure fenced-in garden is too rare in pet-friendly accommodation. :) It was also a lovely little cottage, well-equipped in terms of the kitchen, and very cozy (especially the electric blankets). Having DStv was an added bonus. We will stay here again the next time we are in Clarens."
