The stay was amazing thank you.
The only concern we had was on the 30th of December, we went out to Golden Gate and when we got back there was a contractor at the property working on the cottage roof. He had opened the cottage to charge his phone. My parents were staying in the cottage and all their stuff was there. It was a bit concerning that even though he saw there were guests there, he still went into the cottage. He was then working on the roof and hammering all afternoon long. Not an enjoyable afternoon. If a contractor has to work at the property just to let us know. My dog was also there but luckily he was in the main house otherwise he could of run out when they came in or if they had opened the main house and not the cottage. This was the only disappointment we had. Besides that we loved the stay thank you.
This cottage was unique in style and had lots of quirky extras. The kitchen was well supplied with all the items required. The huge fireplace in the lounge was a Godsend on the rather cold and rainy days.
Nice quiet area with fantastic views. The house is charming with a big yard for dogs as the place is dog friendly. Really enjoyed my stay, wish I could move in permanently!
Very nice stay thank you. Quiet good. The view from the upper deck was pleasant. Thank you.

Always something new to see. There are lot of different activities in and around town.
Hiking trails, and culture
Hiking Trails, and naturally...the Purple Onion Shop.
Golden Gate.
Lions Rock Big Cat Sanctuary.
The quaint shops in town.
I enjoy everything about Clarens, hiking at Golden Gate national park and Highlander restaurant are best ..
Scenery, shops, MTB routes.
The Brewery and the Gosto's restaurent and live music!
Beautiful scenery, serene and clean!
The shopping, the brewerey, the purple onion and the views.
FOREVER CLARENS WAS JUST THE BEST !!!!! :)
We stayed in the Family unit and it was 7 STAR - Couldn't wish for any better
Jaco & Myrna are wonderful, Everything was organised and ready for us, communication was a pleasure on whats app. And another BIG bonus is that we parked our car, and only got back into it when our stay ended. Town is a few paces away and CLARENS is just so chilled and relaxed.
Will be back to Forever Clarens For Sure :)
