307 guests' feedbackLovely stay, with sufficient heating against the cold. We will definitely do it again.
What a lovely, relaxing environment with the most beautiful view.
Yes, would definitely go again. Uncle George is great.
Our cottage was available even though we came earlier. They cleared out their own packroom to store our bicycles and gave us the key for security reasons. Our hosts were so inviting. The lounge area was updated from the photos - such a warm, cosy place close by to everything. When we visit Clarens again, we will be using Fairview Cottages!
We always enjoy staying overnight at Fair View.
Very friendly people. Beautiful view.
See stars.
We had a very nice stay. Plekkie is very neat and has everything you need. Nice close to Square, can walk where you want to be.
Perfectly located, everything is within walking distance.
Our stay at Fairview Cottages was very pleasant.
The stay was very pleasant and the host humorous and friendly. As indicated in the visitor's book, it might be useful if there were more accessories available for self-catering. Appreciation for the upgrade to more spacious accommodation.
Was very nice. The owner and wife are very nice.
We stayed here for a quick getaway from Johannesburg. The welcome when we arrived was both humorous and insightful. The accommodation was perfect for our needs, and we had a very comfortable stay. I will definitely book here again.
Very nice stay, you have everything you need and a very nice view and walking distance from the town, about 100m if I can guess. Our second visit here and was very pleasant.
It is a peaceful place, beautiful surroundings and friendly people.
The location is so perfect. We parked our car and could walk everywhere we wanted to go for the rest of the weekend.
Fairview is walking distance to everything. Very neat and clean. Will definitely stay there again.
We were kindly received, the room is tidy and creates a peaceful, calm atmosphere. The view from the stoepie is beautiful. Had a great time. Would definitely recommend Fairview.
Beautiful view of the Titanic.
Very neat, comfortable place to stay with a beautiful view. Walking distance from shops.
Our rooms were well equipped, very neat and clean. Brenda and George were friendly and hospitable. Thank you for a wonderful experience!
George told us stories about the 3 mountains around Clarens. The Titanic, Horeb and Ararat. It was very interesting.
Stayed in Eagles view. The place is perfectly furnished, tidy and everything you need. It's just the bathroom door that doesn't close well. Furthermore, the perfect place. Thanks also to Brenda and her husband for their kindness and hospitality.
Fairview Cottages is well located in a quiet and peaceful environment and with a beautiful view of nature and mountains. It is close and within walking distance of the restaurants and shops. I love photography and there are many photo opportunities with the beautiful nature and the autumn colors were a bonus for photography.
Everything was so wonderful!
We were pleasantly surprised with George's welcome (host). We were informed about all the attractions in the area. We were walking distance from everything and although close to the CBD we didn't hear any noise - very peaceful surroundings.
Lovely location within easy walking distance of town centre of Clarens. A lovely view of the mountains. The chalet was nice, tastefully furnished.
Stayed in "Eagle's View" unit. Breathtaking view of surroundings. Excellent facilities and very tidy.
Since the first moment we stopped there, we have been warmly welcomed and shown to our room. The most beautiful room with everything we need. With the town being within walking distance, who could ask for more? It was heaven on earth waking up to a spectacular view, sipping a cup of coffee on the terrace. My boyfriend and I had a wonderful and comfortable time. Time went by way too fast. Thank you to George and Brenda for excellent and personal service. See you again soon.
I just wanted to break away. This was ideal.
Centrally located. Walking distance to all attractions in town.
Was warmly greeted with stories of the surroundings and the mountains. We walked everywhere and enjoyed a bottle of wine on the porch in the evening. One sleeps so comfortably and the place is nicely furnished. Will definitely visit again.
Owners, George and Brenda, are friendly and helpful. The unit is clean and well equipped. Fairview Cottages is also extremely centrally located and we didn't need our vehicle once during our visit - we were able to walk into town centre. George's local knowledge also helps when it comes to choices of places to eat and other attractions. We will definitely visit again.
The facilities were neat and clean, within walking distance to the center of town and it is good value for money.
Awesome accommodation, awesome location.
Beautiful view and walking distance from the town centre.
Was a lovely break with lots of activities.
Owners hospitable. Make you feel at home. Help with restaurant choices and attractions. Want to be there again.
Clean bedding, warm blanket and hot water. Beautiful view from the porch.
My wife and I really enjoyed our stay at Fairview cottages so much that we extended our stay by another night. The cottages were well equipment with everything we might need and more. The cottages are a few hundred meters from the Clarens square where the most amazing restaurants and shops are. Our hosts George and Brenda were amazing and super helpful and friendly. I would highly recommend everyone stays here when visiting Clarens.
Uitstekende plekkie om te bly! Pragtige uitsig, mooi moderne en skoon verblyf en vriendelike gashere! Ons sal beslis weer Fairview Cottages besoek.
The view and tranquility are the best. Within walking distance of everything.
Very nice view where we stayed, peaceful and value for money.
The location is perfect and the unit is comfortable and well equipped, and the views spectacular.
Friendly reception, helpful. Good location close to hiking trails.
Friendly welcome, one of the rooms upgraded to a luxurious large room with a beautiful large veranda overlooking the mountains and we had a great time here, drinking wine.
Constant inquiry about how we are staying and if we are experiencing any problems. The host and hostess were friendly and helpful. Informed us about sights and their significance.
Accommodation more than met our expectations.
Will only want to stay longer next time. Will visit and recommend Fairview Cottages again.
Location of guest house very good. Place is a bit cramped, kitchen inconvenient. Shower drain glug-glug when water is released in the kitchen or bathroom. Very nice garden and comfortable porch.
Our accommodation at Fairview Cottages was very nice. We were received very kindly and found the history of the mountains very informative. The room is very neat and clean and everything you need was there. The cottage is walking distance from all the restaurants and shops. Great hiking trails to the dam are just around the corner. Thank you very much for your hospitality, you will definitely see us again.
From the sofa on the veranda we could admire the beautiful scenery. With the sound of the stream a few meters away, it creates a wonderfully peaceful atmosphere in which to relax. We also enjoyed the hiking trail which was beautiful, and even I with my round unfit body could enjoy it. Looking forward to being able to relax there again soon.
Fairview Cottages is highly recommended, neat and clean rooms with a beautiful view, walking distance from all the attractions and beautiful hiking trails in the mountain.
Ons was hartelik verwelkom toe ons daar gearriveer het. Die Eagle View Cottage is soveel mooier as in die foto's. Daai atmosfeer wat die groot vensterdeure bied sodat mens in die bed kan lê en op die berg kyk. Warm komberse klaar op die bed vir die koue aande was regtig 'n pluspunt. Die badkamer was net so mooi met die mountain view reg rondom. Alles wat ons moontlik kon voor vra, was reeds klaar daar. Sy het ekstra moeite gedoen om vir ons plunger coffee saam met die gewone kitskoffie te sit. Dit was stil. Ons kon in die tuin stap. Dis slegs 'n paar tree dan is jy by die 1ste restaurante. Ons sal definitief weer by Fairview Cotages tuis gaan.
Nice clean place, walking distance from town. Nice view, we will definitely visit here again
I would definitely recommend Fairview Cottages, very neat, clean and safe, within walking distance of the town center and restaurants especially, fantastic meals. Definitely an oasis away from the city's noise where you can sit quietly on the veranda and drink coffee. I will definitely stay there again just longer.
Centrally located. Beautiful view. Quiet environment. Friendly staff.
Area incredibly very beautiful and located close to all the places. Walking distance to everything.
Neat clean and comfortable. Beautiful view as well as walking distance from everything.
Cute places to eat.
The host is a well-informed person and provided us with valuable information regarding attractions, routes, history etc.
Will definitely go again, great views.
Friendly reception by George and Brenda made us feel very much at home. Beautiful view with neat room and everything needed for a great break from the hustle and bustle. Highly recommended and looking forward to our next visit there.
Friendly reception by George and Brenda. Neat room with everything you need to make your stay comfortable. Wonderful view and well located, walking distance to all the places in town. Would definitely recommend Fairview Cottages and would love to stay here again.
Fairview Cottages is within walking distance of delicious eateries and shops. From Garden Cottage we had a beautiful view of the mountains. The stay was fantastic.
We were warmly welcomed, everything was neat and in place. The silence and tranquillity were a delight to our souls. Everything is within walking distance which makes everything easier. Friendly people as well as very helpful.
Friendly reception by owner. Unit very clean, neat and convenient with secure parking. Most beautiful fresh linen and towels. Walking distance from shops and restaurants. Beautiful views of mountains and nature from the unit's porch.
Excellent value for money.
Very pleasant stay, lovely cottage and views, friendly hosts, will recommend.
Our accommodation was very well equipped with everything we needed. The area just outside our room consisted of a beautiful garden with braai facilities, as well as nice garden chairs. The central location is a winner and we explored the village without using our vehicle.
Herdenking by Fairview Cottage. Aangename aankoms en hartlike groete. Vriendelik en gemaklik.
Owners are friendly and atmosphere is peaceful. Titanic View is neat with a beautiful view. They are pet friendly and we will definitely book there again. Kitchen has microwave oven and fridge. The coffee was also a nice treat. Nice electric blanket for the cold evenings.
Breathtaking view, nice and close to 99% of shops. Friendly service from everyone.
We were warmly welcomed and received many interesting information about the village, mountains and famous places to visit. The location is comfortable within walking distance of all shops and restaurants. The fireplace in the room was certainly a winner to ward off the cold. There is plenty of parking and security provided. The unit was comfortable and tastefully furnished with everything needed. Truly quality for money. Thank you very much.
Stunning view, comfortable bed and great quality linen, electric blanket was a wonderful treat, personal. Very special place.
Fairview Cottage is sure to be a treat and a place to return to. We were kindly received by Brenda and George and felt like part of the family. We could visit comfortably on our own porch. The view of the mountains and also easy access to hiking trails and the restaurants is a winner. The place is also well equipped for the cold and the panel heater and electric blanket kept us nice and cozy through the winter cold. Our place is beautifully decorated and the facilities are of high quality. Fairview Cottages certainly offers good value for money.
Can't wait to go back.
What a lovely cottage, close to town but also close to hiking routes - fabulous view, great hosts and pet-friendly!
The location of Fairview Cottages makes it easy to walk where you want to be. Although the Garden Cottage is very small with limited space, it was well equipped and functional. George was very friendly and his knowledge of the area and history of the town was very informative. We soon switched off and the few days in Clarens were a highlight for the month. We will definitely consider Fairview Cottages again on a next visit.
No problem, just would've preferred a queen-size bed and the couches are a bit old.
The owner was friendly and helpful with advise on where to keep and activities to do in the area. The apartment was situated in town, spacious, clean and fully equipped for two people. The views from the balcony were breathtaking. Highly recommended.
Wonderful unit. Within walking distance of everything. Friendly reception and very helpful. Can definitely recommend Fairview. We had a great time for the 2 nights.
Fairview has a stunning location. It's close to the center of everything in Clarens. And the view from the veranda was breathtaking. George and Brenda were friendly and helpful. The area is quiet and the people friendly. Everything needed was available in the room. Can't wait for our next visit.
It was our first time in Clarens and it's a must if you just want to get away from the busy city life. The view from our spot (Eagles View) was incredibly beautiful. It is perfectly located, within walking distance of all the restaurants and shops and also right next to the hiking trails. The place was equipped with everything you could need and more.
Ideally located between hiking trails and businesses. Reception was always friendly. The unit is neat and in a quiet area. This was our third visit to Eagle View Cottage and we would do it again. Can truly recommend Fairview Cottages.
Thank so much for the hospitality. We enjoyed so much. Hope till we meet again someday.
We were warmly welcomed and the owner made an effort to share the history of the town and region with us.
Will definitely visit Fairview again!
Great location. Walking distance from main area. Perfect for weekend away. Very homey with wonderful owners. Thank you!
Everything was perfect. Even a small problem that we had was solved immediately. The town is a very pleasant place to visit.
It was very convenient. We had a great stay and the location is particularly good.
Friendly, helpful owners who make sure you have everything you need. Titanic View is a very neat unit with an incredibly beautiful view.
Very neat place and the owner is very friendly. We had a great stay.
Eagle's View, the unit Brenda upgraded us to, is very neat and comfortable and can comfortably accommodate 4 people. The view is one of the best in Clarens. It's an open plan unit with a full bathroom and tiled floors throughout. The open plan layout with tiled floors means that the unit is very cold in winter - we were in the unit on the nights of 17 and 18 June 2019. The double bed has an electric blanket, which helps with the night chill. There is a fireplace in the unit, but wood is not provided. There is one panel heater and a free standing oil heater. Unfortunately, the oil heater repeatedly kicked out the power because it draws quite a bit of power. The panel heater alone is not enough to heat the unit. A solution would be to install air conditioning. The Eagle's View unit compares well with other more luxurious accommodation in Clarens where I have stayed, and I can definitely recommend it as a summer accommodation.
Breathtaking view.
Had a great stay. The Titanic room was neat and clean and met our requirements. I would perhaps just suggest to also only provide salt and pepper. Otherwise we can't complain. Will definitely use them again.
Very nice location. Neat and tasteful. Safe with convenient parking. The reception was unfortunately not well coordinated and we were initially put in the wrong unit with luggage and all. Refrigerator in unit was very noisy and disturbed sleep.
We had a great time, were kindly received and have already decided that we will stay there again next time. Stayed in Eagles View for 5 days and it was absolutely perfect for our needs. Thanks again!
The host and hostess were very friendly and helpful. The room was neat and clean and already available before 14:00. George also provided information about what there was to do and where the specific place I was heading to was. I would stay there again anytime I'm in Clarens again.
Had such a great stay. Friendly faces. Always a smile from the staff or the owners. Wouldn't change anything.
Very nice place to stay, close to town. Very neat, very clean and terribly friendly people. Will definitely be back again. Absolute value for money!
Lovely apartment with a beautiful view in a cosy town.
Eagle's View is an oasis after a long day on the road. Beautiful room with pretty view in a safe area with secure parking, hospitable host and hostess. Will definitely make it our regular stop in Clarens. Only criticism, the double bed is a little bit cramped when you are used to an extra-length king-size bed, which is quite necessary when your husband is 2m tall, but the sofa does not sleep too badly.
Very safe and tidy accommodation. Owners very friendly. Will definitely use the Fairview again.
Fairview Cottage's units are very well appointed, very neat and very well equipped. We stayed very nice and warm in the cold and we could wake up with a very nice view of Clarens' mountains. Fairview Cottage is very well located and we were able to walk into town. We will definitely check in there again if we visit Clarens again.
We had a great stay and will book there again on our next Clarens getaway weekend. Close to everything and just walked everywhere, without worrying about parking. It's also very neat and clean. Thank you for a nice and comfortable weekend!
Very neat and affordable accommodation. Has everything you need as a visitor. I definitely recommend it.
Was a lovely weekend away from the noise of the city. The apartment was well furnished and clean and the view of the mountains were breathtaking. Walking distance to town, restaurants and coffee shops. The food of Mosiac Pizza was surely from the books, the "pork belly" was 5 stars. George and Brenda were good hosts and we will return to Fairview again.
We enjoyed it so much. From arrival, all the way to check-out. Thank you very much for the hospitality. We would love to visit again.
Had a very nice weekend in a very nice and wonderful little place. Will definitely stay there again.
Lovely stay, beautiful accommodation, very stylish.
Best place and great educational history.
Fantastic location. Everything you need. Friendly service where people come and go without bothering you.
Was a nice weekend, accommodation was just what we were looking for.
Brenda waited for us, warmly welcomed us and made us feel at home. George showed how the technology works, including the TV. The spacious garden and the unobstructed view of the gorges and mountains were breathtaking. The en suite room is well and neatly equipped. Our vehicle was safely locked and bolted. The stay was just one big treat. Coffee, tea, milk, sugar, etc. and it's there!
We enjoyed the stay very much. Everything we needed was there. Owners very friendly and helpful.
We had a nice stay. Was just too short to rest well, but will definitely go back.
Clarens is clearly a tourist town. Fairview Cottages offers affordable accommodation in units with a beautiful view of nature. The owners are hospitable and catered to every need. There was a ladder available with the most necessary information.
What a wonderful stay at Fairview! Can't wait to go back! Could easily live there in Clarens. The peace, tranquillity and serenity, something to behold. Hosts were excellent!
Fairview Cottages is within walking distance of the high street and mountain trails. The owners are friendly and always at your service if you need anything. Will visit Fairview again in the future for sure!
The accommodation was perfect for us. Walking distance from the "downtown". The room's facilities were as described and all in working order. Quality of the bedding and crockery is good. We will definitely consider Fairview Cottages again if we want to be in Clarens.
We had a great time staying at Fairview. We rented out 2 rooms for the long weekend. The cottages are right next to all the restaurants and shops. Rooms and bathrooms are very clean and tidy and the Eagles view room is wonderfully large with a balcony with a stunning view of the mountains. The owners are also very friendly and gave us good advice on restaurants to check out.
Five stars and the photos doesn't do justice to how ideal and idyllic this place is. 100 m from the city centre, within walking distance, but also far enough that one can fully experience the peace and scenic beauty! The view cannot be described! If your drinking coffee on the porch or enjoying a glass of wine - it's the best feeling ever!
The accommodation was affordable, tidy and well equipped. We were kindly welcomed with a guide regarding Clarens and places we can visit. The place's location is very close to the square and one can simply explore Clarens on foot. I will certainly recommend Fairview Cottages to others and visit them again myself.
Pocket-sized, clean and safe accommodation in one of the most beautiful parts of our country. A very friendly welcome at Fairview Cottages and we thoroughly enjoyed the anecdotes and stories from George. This was our second visit to Clarens and will definitely go again. Would like to experience the winter there.
Very private and yet walking distance to everything. Very quiet and peaceful, we slept so well and enjoyed their DVDs and books. Thank you very much.
Very neat rooms and the most beautiful view! Will definitely stay there again! So centrally located, walking distance to the restaurants and businesses. In 1 word: great!
There is no other place to stay when visiting Clarens. Everything about Fairview Cottages is perfect, the location, value for money, customer service. The cottages are wonderfully laid out and decorated. Thank you George and Brenda for another lovely stay. I recommend Fairview Cottages to everyone I know.
Really enjoyed it, definitely coming back again! Easy and quick arrangements on LekkeSlaap. Very pleasant owners.
The interior decoration, layout and use of space and especially the view is definitely a hit. George's general knowledge of the area and history is a great help and his and Brenda's hospitality and friendliness is exceptional. We hope to visit again!
We stayed in the Garden View Cottage. It was very nice and tidy and equipped with everything one needs.
For us, Fairview Cottages is the best of all previous stays. We booked at 2 other places that were unavailable. Asked for money back and there was immediate understanding and we were refunded immediately. Fairview stands head and shoulders above the other places.
See star rating.
It was such a privilege to stay over at Fairview Cottages. The room is beautiful and so neat! We will definitely return for a longer stay! Thank you.
Thank you very much for the wonderful 3 days we were able to stay here. We will recommend this beautiful place to everyone who crosses our path. Nothing was missing and will definitely visit again! Thank you very much.
Our stay was pleasant. Room is clean with everything you need. Slept wonderfully warm. Walking distance to everything in the village. Will definitely go there again, very good value for money.
We were kindly received, the place was clean and tidy, very safe and close to all the shops. The owners were also very pleasant and friendly. We would definitely recommend the accommodation to anyone who wants to stay in Clarens.
Very nice place to stay and nice walking distance from the village! Really enjoyed it! Parking just a bit tricky if there are 3 vehicles or more! Reception should be better indicated (more visible) guests sometimes knock on the wrong door for inquiries and arrival!
We really enjoyed the clean, quiet, well-appointed room, the friendly service - help with luggage, advice on what to see and where and what to do. Sitting on the stoep with a glass of wine, taking in the glorious scenery was wonderful. Walks through the small town, the art galleries and along the mountain base was also wonderful. In short: A wonderful break. The only bad was the drive back in heavy fog!
We visit Clarens often and this was definitely the best for our needs, namely staying with other couples but still being separate from each other.
Can definitely recommend Fairview Cottages. The owners are helpful and hospitable.
It was wonderful! Perfect location.
Our stay was very pleasant and also the visit to the various shops. We would like to visit Clarens again for a full weekend and hope to be able to arrange accommodation at Fairview Cottages again. They are also very affordable.
The reception was friendly and welcoming, and we felt at home immediately. The cottage was neat, clean and very nice for an overnight stay. Wonderful view of the town from the balcony. We will definitely stay there again.
Was really a very nice place to stay and the owners didn't fuss too much which made it nice.
See stars.
Owner friendly place to stay neat and clean environment. Beautiful.
Very nice and clean spot, beautiful view. Electric kitchen is a big plus and it is walking distance from everything.
We had a wonderful stay at this little place. Really cosy and cute. Perfect for a weekend getaway with significant other. Location is excellent with shops a few metres away as well as walking trails.
We enjoyed our stay at Fairview Cottages. We had everything we needed to make our stay pleasant and comfortable. There was even an electric blanket for the cold nights and it does get very cold! The unit was clean and comfortable with a good mattress, lovely large balcony and beautiful views. There was coffee, tea, sugar, but unfortunately the milk left in the fridge was sour. However, we have no complaints and really had a good time. The stairs on the side of the building leading up to the Eagles View unit was a bit challenging for my 84 year old mother, being steel stairs and quite steep, but we managed alright. Al lot of attention was given to detail. We will definitely make use of your cottages again in future.
It was beautiful there.
Everything you need, very central, beautiful views and friendly and hospitable host.
Jeez! Were we pleasantly surprised! We had a great time. The most beautiful rooms in town, with the most beautiful view. Thank you very much for making us feel so special. We will definitely visit again!
It is located with a breathtaking view, owners are fantastic, always made sure everything was in order. It's neat, clean, safe, one word: awesome.
Friendly reception, neat units, would recommend.
It was a lovely few days at Fairview Cottages. The unit was clean and tidy and well equipped. The owners were friendly and very helpful. The place is ideally located and good value for money. I went to rest and was pleasantly surprised.
Owner goes out of his way to be helpful.
The accommodation was excellent and more than well equipped! We had a great time and George and Brenda were wonderful 'hosts'. Will definitely stay here again.
We just want to thank you very much for your hospitality. We enjoyed it very much and we felt very at home and safe. The discussion took place quickly. Everything is neat and comfortable. We will recommend family and friends to make use of your hospitality. Will see you again. Thank you very much!
The owners were friendly and helpful; and the apartment was very well equipped for self-catering. I arranged the stay as a present for my parents and they were very impressed. I would love to visit Fairview Cottages myself next time (and maybe test the fireplace a bit!).
We stayed in Titanic View, it's so private, clean and perfect for a weekend getaway for two. The walking distance to the town square just makes everything easier, because it can get quite busy and you have to struggle with parking. Clarens and Fair View will definitely see us again soon, it was really lovely! Owners are both also very hospitable, it's like they say, if you're holidaying in a strange town, ask the ''locals'' and they'll tell you all the secrets of the town - from Golden Gate routes to a beautiful path along the creek to the dam for walkers.
Lovely, clean little cottage. Will definitely go back!
Really enjoyed the stay. Fairview is within walking distance from everything. Room is very neat and the hosts are very friendly.
The unit was clean, modern furnishings and bathroom. The owners were thoughtful enough to place dvd’s, magazines and books in the room for rainy day weather. George gave us a brief history of the town and was very hospitable! We have stayed at many placed in Clarens before, won’t return to any of them except Fairview!
I would definitely visit Fairview Cottage again next year as we could not get enough of the place.
Was kindly received by George van der Merwe. Felt at home immediately. Very nice stay. Is recommended. Nice close to everything.
We really enjoyed our stay at Fairview. It is neat and the owners go out of their way to assist visitors with info about Clarens, etc.
Thank you very much, will definitely be returning for a visit in future.
Very pleasant hosts. Very helpful and accommodation absolutely outstanding.
Neat, value for money and beautiful picture! We will definitely stay here again. Friendly host and wife with the most breathtaking view of the mountains. We come again!
Good stay and really generous welcome by Brenda and George. I recommend it to everyone.
Stunning and romantic accommodation with a indescribable view. George and Brenden was very helpful and always available when we needed help. It was definitely worth it. I can't wait to go again.
I'd book Fairview again any day! The owners were very friendly and helpful. Everything was clean and neat and we had a a great time.
Was really nice, the view is breathtaking, the balcony with the Weber braai was a winner. The place was nice and clean and just generally it was nice.
Ons is gegroet asof al jare lange vriende is en dit se alreeds baie. Hul het ons ingelig oor alles in Clarens en waar om wat te kry. Die ligging van Fairview Cottages is in die nabyheid van alles, jy kan jou kar parkeer by Fairview Cottages en loop oral waar jy wil wees. Definitief die geld werd en sal weer daar langs gaan.
Friendly, hospitable and helpful. The location is fantastic, walking distance to all shops.
The place has everything one would need, with very friendly owners who are happy to share stories and recommendations. It is ideal for some time away with your partner where you can walk through the special streets of Clarens and enjoy the shops or take a walking route and take in nature's beauty.
It was pleasant to stay there, the place is excellent for a break away, neat and clean, view is very nice. Will definitely use it again.
Beautiful and convenient accommodation.
It is good value for money. It is a beautiful bachelor's flat.
The cottage was newly refurbished, very clean and comfortable and the host was super friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the lovely town of Clarens.
Excellent place for someone that needs a warm bed to sleep in.
My sister and I enjoyed our time there very much! the attention to detail is not something you find every day and it was much appreciated. We couldn't stop talking about our weekend back in Johannesburg. Thank you to everyone involved!
Clarens is a great holiday destination. Beautiful nature close to town and the surrounds. Lots of eateries and accommodations to choose from.
The best place to have a quick getaway. The hiking trails are breathtaking.
Friendly, relaxing and good location.
Very friendly service and a very good location. Owner is very helpful and friendly, provides a lot of information regarding activities and restaurants.
The unit we stayed in created the feeling of warmth and sunshine in the cold Free State. Will recommend it.
We were warmly received. It is conveniently close, walked to where we wanted to be! Titanic Cottage is very neat, lovely shower and very clean! Will definitely go again, was absolute value for money. The view is incredibly pretty.
We stayed in 'Titanic View'. A small unit but very comfortable with everything one needs. Self care. Fairview Cottages is perfect if you want to walk into town - just steps away from all the restaurants etc. Will definitely stay there again.
The Fairview cottage is exactly what you see, it has a tranquil and homely feeling. It has all you requirements needed for a getaway. Just a short walk from the beautiful town of Clarens.

Had a great stay at Fair View. Lovely unit with a beautiful view of the Clarens mountains. Fair View is also fantastically located and is within walking distance of shops etc. Will definitely stay there again on our next visit. I also recommend Fair View to everyone.
Fairway cottages are central located, walking distance from the shops and are fully equipped. We would definitely recommend Fairway Cottages for a pleasant stay to anyone.
Fairview Cottages is very affordable, clean and in a beautiful and peaceful area.
Wonderful view. Very convenient and well equipped. Will definitely go again. The only thing that bothered was the very loud music at the restaurant close to Fairview Cottage. Hopefully the people in the area can put a stop to it, because it takes away the peacefulness. George and his wife was very hospitable and helpful. Went out of their way to help. Thanks George.
Titanic view, heerlijke rustige kamer met terrasje, keuken en moderne badkamer. Gastvrije eigenaren die ook goede tips over de omgeving konden geven.
Had a very nice time at Eagle's View Cottage! Will definitely be returning!
Highly recommended. Neat, clean and a great location. Walking distance from the city center. Will go back. Brenda and her husband were very friendly.
Perfect location - on the one side you have a walking trail in the hills, on the other the town within walking distance. Houses equipped with everything we needed. The owners' kindness and helpfulness really stood out. At our arrival we were immediately informed of the places we could visit and the activities in the area. Thank you for a wonderful weekend!
It is stunning, clean, neat, safe and very peaceful.
We had a lovely stay. You see the most amazing mountains from all around the flat. Within walking distance from shops and restaurants. Friendly and hospitable owners. I can really recommend Fairview Cottages to anyone!
Friendly hosts. Beautiful unit and well-equipped. Great that it is walking distance from town centre.
Fairview Cottage was a really beautiful cottage with fantastic views. We were received very kindly by Winnie and immediately felt at home. George informed us about all the attractions in the area. The owners sent us a detailed email which has never happened before. We were very impressed by the cottage as well as the owners. We will definitely use Fairview Cottages again.
Wonderful getaway accommodation.
We slept in Eagle's View. Nice view, very nice. Everything you need is there, and the management gave very good advice for places to eat and things to do. Only one thing was bad, and that was the fact that we couldn't sleep well the 2nd night. I sleep lightly, and there had been a strong wind. The wind itself didn't bother, but there were branches that kept scraping over the canopies. It wouldn't necessarily bother other people, but for me it was a bit of a problem. When the wind did stop I slept very well. Would definitely recommend the place. Really Leaky!
Fairview Cottages are clean and tidy, fully equipped and very centrally located.
Neat place, friendly owners, just needs a fireplace for the winter months.
Neat, clean, relaxing and within walking distance of everything.
We had a warm welcome at Fairview Cottages. Accommodation is the best and the rooms are modern. I highly recommend them because it is within walking distance of the town and it was a tranquil getaway.
Will be back any day. Outstanding service and friendly helpfulness. We were kept up to date with everything before arrival via emails from Brenda and George and during our stay they provided information about eateries, attractiongs and activities in the area.
This place is one of the best places that I have ever stay at for the best value for money. The owners thought about the small details in the room. The room was very neat and the staff friendly. The location is also fantastic. The best part of the accommodation was the quiet, beautiful view and walking distance from everything. Will recommend this place to anyone who wants to visit Clarens.
The accommodation was comfortable and wheelchair friendly. The reception was very hospitable and met our expectations.
Had a lovey time relaxinh and doing a lot of the hikes.
The accommodation was truly value for money. It was extremely neat and clean and had all the facilities for a quiet romantic weekend. The accommodation was so central that we didn't use our car for the whole weekend. We can definitely recommend it for an affordable, quiet, romantic weekend.
Very friendly service. Very close to everything. Can walk to shops and foot paths are also comfortably close.
Very nice room with kitchenette and lovely garden. Walking distance from centre. Clarens is a very nice safe town.
Close to village - walking distance, no need to drive. Safe, clean and cuddly.
Really enjoyed the stay. Very quiet and perfectly located close to walking routes.
The so-called Portuguese restaurant is no longer Portuguese. Also too expensive.
We really relaxed and enjoyed the accommodation and natural beauty so much so that we didn't even think about home or work.
Room comfortable and clean. Nice view of the mountains. Owners very friendly and helpful. Would recommend Fairview Cottages without a doubt.
George and Brenda gave us a warm welcome. Jewel place and would stay there again anytime and recommend it. Perfect for 2 people.
My wife and I enjoyed it with a pretty view. We're going again, for sure.
See the stars.
The guesthouse is in a neighbourhood where the view from the back yard really didn't look good. We found hair on the floor and bedding. The neighbours' cockerels woke us up every morning very early around 4:00 and then every half an hour after that. It was extremely unpleasant. Apart from that the people were very hospitable and friendly.
Very peaceful, beautiful area. All necessities were in place. The cottage was clean and tidy. Our car was safe and we slept soundly at night. Very centrally located, walking distance to shops.
Ideal accommodation walking distance from the centre of Clarens. Clean and neat, and very relaxed.
Beverly thought of everything to make our stay as pleasent as possible. Got some great rest.
Fairview Cottages is the perfect little place in Clarens. Safe, with lovely views everywhere you look. The owners are hospitable and very helpful. You'll definitely see us again.
We will definitely come back to this address, not only to visit Clarens, but enjoy the whole area. The cottages are very well situated.
Affordable, very neat and well equipped with all the necessary things. Close to town with a beautiful view of the mountains.
Well equipped, modern and very convenient with a warm atmosphere. Well located. Fantastic customer service. Will definitely use Fairview again.
Great stay! Beautiful view! Friendly people! Will definitely use them again.
We would recommend this place to any couple! An incredible view. It's 100% worth it!
Very well furnished. Very neat. Conveniently close to everything so you can walk where you want to be.
Excellent accommodation that is very clean and tidy with a breathtaking view. Very nice owners in Abri and Lene. Thank you very much for your hospitality and we will definitely stay with you again in the future. Unit very well equipped with a lot of detail to small things that are important. Keep it up so you two see each other again in the winter.
We were very kindly received and the owners were very kind and helpful. We had a really nice stay.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Fairview Cottages. Very accommodating to our every need, absolute value for money, a perfect location. I would definitely return anytime and recommend anyone for a stay at Fairview. Exceptionally friendly service.
Had a fantastic stay at Fairview garden cottage, our only complaint would be that the bed needs replacing. The owners are very accommodating, friendly and full of advice on activities in the area which was much appreciated. The cottage was very neat and had everything needed for a self catering stay.
The location is perfect because you only walk 200 m and you are at the first place to visit. We had a very nice stay.
The view from the upper cottage is breathtaking. Well furnished with everything you need. Very friendly and good service. Value for money. All that is missing is DStv to complete it.
Very neat accommodation, fantastic veranda to enjoy a cocktail. Very close to everything and around the corner from all the walking routes. Was really very good.
It was very nice, best value for money in Clarens.
We were very satisfied with the accommodation and arrangements. It was beautiful and tidy, very close to places to eat, shops and walking trails. Definitely recommend.
The unit was very neat and clean and the owners were very hospitable and also provided information about the environment.
Just have to mention that an extra bathroom bench or rack would be a great idea. The stairs can be quite a challenge for old folk, maybe just inform prospective clients about it. TV didn't work.
It was very neat and clean when we arrived. Everything was just right. Very peaceful with an excellent view. You could hear soft music coming from the nearby square, but it wasn't disturbing. On our next trip to Clarens we will definitely stay here again.
Good clean accommodation with the most amazing view of the Maluti Mountains.
Value for money. Neat cottage. Well equipped.
Abri sent us a welcome letter a few days before our arrival, with a map and all kinds of useful information. He also called us the morning of our arrival and let us know that everything was ready for our arrival. He was always available should we have any problems or questions, e.g. when the power went out he was quick to help us get things up and running again. Genuinely friendly people and such a beautiful view!
Fairview Cottages is ideally located, private and very well equipped. Beautiful view of the mountains, especially from the porch. We had a great stay and will definitely go back again.
We will take the opportunity to go there again anytime! You don't need anything more. Thank you very much, we really enjoyed it.
It was a very nice weekend and we enjoyed it so much in Fairview Cottages.
We enjoyed the stay very much. And all the shops were an experience. Very nice.
I would recommend Fairview Cottages anytime! The room is beautiful and very well equipped. The owners are friendly and helpful, and the service we received was great! Fairview Cottages is well located close to the village, but also a stone's throw from beautiful walking trails and picturesque natural landscapes. Moreover, their prices are reasonable. We will definitely stay here again!
It's very neat and we had a very nice stay. Friendly service. Nice central location!
Well equipped, tidy and close to all the best things in Clarens, not only places to eat and shops, but excellent walking and mountain routes!
Excellent tidy accommodation. Nicely close to town center without having to drive. Friendly and hospitable. I will come again.
Very nice cottage with the best view.
Excellent view, good hospitality, friendly reception and had a wonderful stay there.
I would go back and visit again anytime.
Was definitely worth it. Will definitely be checking in at Fairview Cottage again.
Fairview Cottages are neat, modern, comfortable and very conveniently located. Quiet area, within walking distance of everything. Good, friendly service. We will definitely stay there again.
Beautiful place, which is very modernly furnished with everything needed for self-catering. It is walking distance from town. The view is very beautiful and the surroundings are peaceful. Lene, thank you for your kindness. We will for sure go home there again.
Was really impressed with how nice the living unit is. The decor and whole feel of the open plan unit was excellent. We ride the mountain bike race every year and we stayed 300m from the start and finish. Walking distance from all the eateries and shops. See you again next year.
Feel free to book. It's totally worth it.
We had to go for a wedding and always wanted to come to Clarens. The place is very cute with everything you need. Walking distance to village. All I would suggest is a light at the gate for the evening. We had to get back from a wedding late and it was very dark.
Really enjoyed it and felt very at home. Hospitality was top notch and well located. Very neat and perfect size. Will definitely stay there again every time I'm in Clarens.
Beautiful view from cottage, very comfortable and well furnished, modern and tidy. Will definitely stay there again.
We can recommend Fairview Cottages for a quiet time in Clarens. Everything is nice and clean and spacious enough so that you don't feel cramped. But also small enough to keep it tidy. The environment is so open and clean and fresh, close to the square, but do not hear noise. Go and enjoy Clarens and the mountains...
See the stars.
We stayed at Fairview over New Years. The cottage/apartment offers great views of the mountains and is close to the town square. The apartment is neatly decorated and has everything you could possibly need for a comfortable self-catering holiday. We will definitely stay there again!
We had a nice stay.
Very nice view, neat cottages and owners go out of their way to be helpful.
It was neat and clean. Very well equipped with everything you need. Very nice stay and nice view. Very calm!
The apartment was very neat and clean and the landlords immediately made us feel at home. Plenty of places to visit.
Would stay there again anytime. Peaceful and beautiful surroundings.
The accommodation and hospitality were excellent.
Pleasant reception, spacious and clean with TV.
Very neat & beautiful room with a stunning view. Close to all amenities in Clarens. Will definitely recommend & visit again.
Clean and tidy accommodation - close to all attractions.
One tends to underestimate the accommodation but only when one has been there can you share your experience and thus recommend it and this was exactly the case with us and the accommodation exceeded our wildest expectations. We intend to go to Clarena more often in the future and stay at Fairview Cottages.
On the positive side: friendly reception, the unit was clean, there was coffee, tea and milk there to make something to drink on arrival. Something that was unusual was that we got a discount for our long stay. It was not necessary. Should it have compensated for something? But, unfortunately, there were also a few snags. We only became aware at a late stage that there were only SABC TV channels available. If we were to cancel then it would have been accompanied by a financial loss for us. Looking at the description on the web page, this was not obvious. Honestly, there is a moral obligation on the owners to highlight their somewhat sub-standard amenities when the quote is sent out. The thought that one would be able to watch rugby at a sports bar was also just a thought, because they only showed the SA matches. It was advertised as a self-catering unit, but the small fridge was really inadequate. It was known how long we would stay (6 nights) and therefore it went without saying that we would bring frozen food. We also couldn't buy ice because we couldn't keep it anywhere. It would have been nice if there were small plates, a normal size cutting board and a bread knife. Apart from a hand-broom and shovel, there was nothing available to clean the unit with. There was also no cleaning service. Normally, one does not have to get by with one single set of towels for 6 nights. There is a fundamental safety problem with the electricity kicking off because the earth leakage 'trips'. This appears to be a known problem as there is a notice on it that the switchboard is in the lower unit. It's really not a comfortable situation if the people in the lower unit are not part of your own holiday group.
Although I made the reservations, my sister and hubby stayed there. It was spacious, clean and very quiet.
The cottage is located on a nice side of Van Zylstraat with views of the mountains through the windows. The garden is quiet and beautiful and the kitchen is fully equipped for self-catering purposes. The entire interior is nicely decorated and the young couple who hosted us were very friendly, considerate and professional.
Outstanding! Always happy to go back!
We would definitely recommend it to any of our friends. Thank you for the friendliness and cleanliness of the cottage.
Lovely stay in a very nice unit, neat and clean private. Will go again. Clarence is beautiful. Recommend the accommodation beautifully neat and clean. Friendly service, safe.
It was great staying in the beautiful Fairview Cottages for the weekend! The place to stay is breathtakingly beautiful and we were welcomed with the friendliest service from the owners as well as LekkeSlaap's agents. We wouldn't want to stay anywhere other than Fairview Cottages again.
Many thanks to the owners of Fairview Cottages, we had a great stay and the facilities were clean and spacious. It's walking distance from the action in Clarens and we don't even have to use our car during the weekend. Value for money!
Just want to say a big thank you to our young host and hostess - they were really nice, friendly and helpful. Your place is beautiful and we will definitely visit again.
I would recommend Fairview Cottages anytime.
Would recommend anyone to stay at Fairview Cottages. Als has just been absolutely excellent. The owners will do anything to help and accommodate you should a problem arise. I can promise you that the words nice and excellent do not do the place justice.
Friendly service, the owners are hospitable. The place is beautifully clean and tidy. Had a great time. See you again soon.
Fairview is highly recommended. It's very neat and peaceful and offers a beautiful view of the mountains!
Very nice stay. Everything you need for a holiday. Well equipped.
We really enjoyed the stay, the place is well located, very clean and tidy. Exactly what we wanted.
Even in the cold weather, the stay was very nice. The room had nice warm blankets and heater. For a weekend it is ideal. It is close to all the shops and eateries and we could just walk there. Clarens also feels very safe.
The cute cottage is located with a terrific view of the mountain scene, the place is nicely furnished and has all the necessities you will need for a weekend getaway. The room and bathroom were very neat. Is within walking distance of the town which was very convenient. We are definitely going to visit the place again.
We enjoyed a most welcome break in the cottage we booked and the town Clarens is just so beautiful.
Good price, very tidy and walking distance from everything.
Fairview Cottages in Clarens is a lovely place to stay. It has fantastic views over Clarens, is located close to the town and the cottage has all the necessary facilities for a nice relaxing weekend. The apartment unit (there are 2 units available: cottage and apartment) is modern, tidy and has everything you need such as extra pillows, blankets and towels. Will definitely go there again to support Lene at Fairview.
The view from the top unit was one of the best in the area. Both units were very neat and clean.
A beautiful place with all the necessities.
Fairview Cottages is very well located, walking distance to all the action. Very tidy with a beautiful view of the landscape, I would highly recommend it.
A very neat and affordable unit!

The village of Clarens is known as the 'Jewel of the Free State', due to its natural beauty. The town is situated in a conservancy and boasts amazing walks to the summits of the sandstone mountains, which provide breath-taking vistas of the town, the Maluti ranges and the undulating fields of wheat and maize.
The town is also known for its art route, a variety of quaint shops, craft beer, and restaurants. The old sandstone buildings add to the authenticity of the village. Clarens has become the ideal getaway for city dwellers from Johannesburg, Bloemfontein, and Durban, as these cities are all approximately 300 km away.
Fairview Cottages is ideally located to access the shops, restaurants, art studios, local churches, and nature walks on foot. The closest restaurant is three doors away, while the river walk starts 40m from the front gate.
