• "lovely place"

  10 July 2017

  "Thank You we did love staying at your BnB and thought it was very nice except for the fact that the taps in the room by the microwave needed a new washer and dripped until e turned them off so tight we could hardly turn them on. Also the ends of the curtains had not been secured properly so all the curtain clips came off which was very irrritating. I did feel that the large blanker we were given could have done with a wash but other than that we were very happy and thought it was lovely and will definately be back"

• "Stunning views from our upstairs patio!"

  10 July 2017

  "Dawn is so accommodating, a bit far to walk to and from town at night if it's winter but perfect for walking there in the day!"

• "Well worth the price!"

  12 June 2017

  "Conveniently located on the main tarred road, less than 5 minutes walk from the town square, but still far enough away to be quiet. The owner was very friendly and assisted us with our plans around Clarens. The room was cleaned daily and was comfortable. Well worth the price! However, if you are going to Clarens for rest and relaxation - be sure to go off-peak and during the week, as it gets very busy peak season and weekends. The town itself is lovely with many art shops and restaurants. I would definitely stay at Eddie's again."

  06 August 2016

  "Very conveniently situated allowing you to walk everywhere. Very welcoming owner and a lovely warm room in mid winter with all you need and more. Awesome views of the mountains and the best shower I have ever had. Off street parking is a bonus. Exceptional value for money."

  "<p>A wonderful welcome from the hostess Fran, as Dawnwas on leave.Well equipped upstairs flat with everything needed incl a family size fridge. Thankfully wi-fi was included which was lacking in other places along the way, on our holiday. LOVED the view. The only downside for us as very slight sleepers; was being made aware of the time regularly throughout the night by a bell in the village, but leaving the fan on drowned that out on our second night. Some delightfully quirky little things, and the unit was spotlessly clean. Will recommend a stay there. </p>"

  "We stayed one night at eddies the room although a little small was was well equipped and very clean our host was very friendly and had some very good tips on places to visit we will definitely be back at eddies on our next stay in clarens"

• "Two night stay in Clarens"

  20 July 2015

  "Not the first stay at Eddie's and not the last. Very well organised and pin neat. The unit is extremely compact, but everything fits in its place. You can self cater if you wish, but why bother when a plethora of restaurants are at your doorstep? A short stroll into the village and you are spoilt for choice of places to eat and things to look at. Highly recommended and faultlessly run by Dawn."

• "Accomodation from 8 to 10 May"

  11 May 2015

  "Eddie's Self-catering and B&amp;B is situated very central in Clarens. We will recommend Eddie's to anyone who want to stay over at Clarens. The hospitality of Dawn is outstanding. The apartments is luxury, clean and of a very high standard. The service in overall is of the best. We will be back again at Eddie's."

• "Stay at Eddie's B&B"

  05 January 2015

  "What a experience? Our first time in Clarence and from the time we arrived Dawn made our experience amazing to say the least. We were told where to have breakfast so that the kids can enjoy themselves and we could relax, where to go and what to see in the day we were there. The accommodation was so much more than what we expected. You will surely see my family againJacques & Lovia Havenga"

• "Great Stay!"

  13 June 2014

  "Dawn was very helpful in recommending things to do in the area. Stayed in the June unit with my sister and her husband and really enjoyed it. Great use of space. Appreciated having the little kitchen prep area and so many warm blankets and heaters for the winter chill. Would definitely stay again, great deal!"

• "When in Clarens...."

  10 January 2014

  "... Stay at Eddies. We had a wonderful stay at Eddie's. It's ideally situated, being a short walk from the town. Dawn is a fantastic host, in that she was willing to take us on walks, and help us out with any information we needed regarding the town. We highly recommend Eddies to anybody that stays in Clarens."

• "Rehet"

  12 August 2013

  "We had a wonderful stay. Very cozy it feels at home. We are definitely going back"

• "Brilliant!"

  12 August 2013

  "We had an amazing experience. Went there for our anniversary. Dawn, the owner, was kind enough to upgrade us to a bigger unit at no extra charge. The place is extremely neat and well maintained. Brilliant and affordable cleaning service. Amazing views of the mountains. Free daily walks up the mountain. Could not have asked for better accommodation."

• "Fantastic B&B, lovely owner"

  27 May 2013

  "After booing this accommodation based solely on the reviews I read, I have to say I agree with everyone who says it is a gem in Clarens. We arrived on the Friday afternoon and were greeted by Dawn the owner. She is absolutely lovely, knows everything there is to know about the do's and don’ts of Clarens and is willing to give any of her guests’ advice. We stayed in the unit called Santa: very cosy with a fireplace, heated blankets and our own little kitchenette. And for only R30 a day the room gets cleaned, dishes done, beds made etc. We were really impressed with the quality of the room; the bedding was lovely as was the mattress. We will most definitely consider Eddie's again if we return to Clarens."

• "Lovely guest house"

  "Really enjoyed our stay, will certainly make use of Eddie's again."

• "Absolutely out of this world"

  18 December 2012

  "Accommordation was superb. Very clean and I liked the fact that the staff goes an extra mile, like washing and ironing clothes without any extra charge. Dawn(owner) took us for a mountain walk of which I think was very adventurerous for "Gautengers" and has taught us a lesson that no matter how hard the climbing can be, ones you have reached your peak, the rest will just be smooth. Thank you Dawn."

• "Thank you"

  01 October 2012

  "New, nicely decorated, neat, friendly people. However we tried to change booking from 12 to 8 people but were refused and we had to settle the full bill for 12 people only to hear that accomodation was desperately needed for the weekend (weddings etc). We could have saved some money and others could have had accomodation if only the request to change the booking could have been granted. It is recommended that the policy on changing bookings be reviewed."

• "Home far away from home"

  19 July 2012

  "My family spent one night at Eddie's and absolutely loved it there! It was more than what we have expected and we're really glad that we chose Eddie's. We stayed at the unit called June. It is a two bedroom, self-catering unit. The unit is well equipped, cozy, clean and homey. The view from the units (in particular June and Santa) is spectacular! Overlooking the Maluti Mountains. The owner, Dawn, welcomed us as we arrived. She is such a warm, friendly person and quite an artist too - beautiful paintings inside the unit are painted by her. We definitely recommend Eddie's to anyone coming to Clarens. Can't wait to plan our next trip to Clarens and looking forward to stay at Eddies again!"

• "Great"

  05 January 2011

  "My wife and I stayed in the June unit which has a great view. Though basic, the unit was clean and had everything we needed. It's also just a short walk to the town centre, so it was convenient while also being quiet. And Dawn's price was excellent. We had another quote for the same nine days that cost R9000 more - needless to say we didn't accept it. Dawn was away for most of the time but stand-ins Francois and Jan looked after us very well. (And as a footnote, if you are taken ill in ... more"

• "Enjoyable B&B"

  03 January 2011

  "Clarens is a very cosy town, and Eddies was comfortable, hosts, friendly and accommodating and helpful - really had a good stay even though shorter than anticipated.Just one small suggestion - the small units could do with a fan or air-con - it was very hot inside the unit as it was a scorcher of a day until later the evening when it cooled off with the rain."

• "Eddies Anki"

  02 August 2010

  "We got married in Clarens Methodist Church 7 years ago.It is tradition to visit Clarens since then for our aniversary annually.We (two adults and two kids) managed to book ANKI at Eddies during the weekend of 30 August -1 September 2010. This was without doubt our best experience of Clarens. The main contributing factor was the luxurious facilities of Anki with her spacious rooms, well equipped kitchen, fire place, the best view of the Maluti's from the stoep - where we shared as f ... more"
