84 guests' feedbackWe had a great stay, beautiful place, walking distance from town.
We enjoyed the stay there, nice fireplace and central locality.
Was very nice and comfortable.
Definitely! It's a piece of heaven between the mountains!
Well equipped cottage with everything you might need. Nice clean and tidy. Calm atmosphere. Close enough to walk to town. Would definitely recommend.
Very nice stay. The view is fantastic. You can just sit on the porch for a whole week. It's a fantastic place. Absolutely everything you need is there. First accommodation I book where there is even a hairdryer. I recommend it 100% and more. Will definitely go back again and again. The owner and receptionist are super friendly and helpful. Excellent place. Full DStv is fantastic and full WiiI. Best, best.
Nice stay, everything we needed was there.
The weekend was very nice. We really enjoyed the beautiful views.
Safe if you want to take your animal children with you. Lovely view and peaceful surroundings.
It has a very good location near the town. It's a lovely house with everything you might need. The host, Keith, is friendly. Good security, tidy house, lovely beds. It has a very nice view of the mountains as advertised.
A beautiful place, ideally located. Would stay there again anytime.
A home away from home with everything you could want. The views are exceptional and the cottage is a dream.
Kitchen provided with everything, tablecloths, enough pots, pans, 2 stoves and everything in working order, bowls to enough light and candles for loadshedding. Rooms linen and warm blankets were very good. Towels were beautifully clean and good quality. Absolutely everything is provided from books and games for children. The place is highly recommended. We had a wonderful stay.
The cottage is very well located with excellent views. It is clean and tidy, and the fireplace is great in the winter. We were there for the Clarens Beer Festival and we will definitely stay here again.
Very nice place. Thank you.
We so enjoyed our stay in your house! It is in a quiet area, yet within easy walking distance to town. It is very well equipped - like home away from home. We will certainly stay here again for future visits.
We had a great stay at Mystic Mountain. The house was spotless, with 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. It is walking distance to all the restaurants, art gallery and other shops in town. There is also a wood burning stove and enough heaters to tame any chill. There is also a beautiful view from the porch over the mountains and valley.
Place is very well equipped. Everything is there. Very very nice clean and tidy. Had a great stay.
Everything you need and more is in the house. Beautifully appointed and decorated, thank you.
The braai facilities can definitely be expanded so that there can be a more permanent braai with good lighting. The rest of the cottage was perfectly adequate for our use.
We were really surprised with the place and had an incredibly nice time on the stoep. The place is perfect for a family of 6 and everything was so nice clean and tidy. We will definitely visit there again.
The host Keith organized everything, the caretaker Fran was a wonderful person. The location is walking distance 2 blocks from the square. Will go again.
Staying in the wonderful wooden house with modern fittings gave us the peace and nature view we were longing for. Even more so because our little dogs were with us and could have a great time. The location is ideal and set up for families with children. The highlight is the hot air balloon that is set up very close to the accommodation and you can watch it take off at sunrise. Wonderful. Our new home away from home for future visits.
Discover new favorite place. Rest for the soul in a very cuddly, neat house. It feels like your home away from home. Our four-legged children enjoyed it as much as we did. Safe, clean, tidy, warm with an incredibly beautiful view of the mountains. You will surely see us again soon!
We like the peace and to still be close to the nice shops and eateries. You can walk to where you want to go and it has the most beautiful view.
From arrival to our departure, everything was just described as exceptional. The wooden finish with the homely feel left the view of the mountains just breathtakingly beautiful.
Very nice place, well equipped. Quickly got help from owner when I pressed his button. Will stay there again.
We had a wonderful weekend staying in this gem of a house. Thank you for accommodating our 4 legged children. Will definitely again make use of this accommodation in future.
It was delicious with a beautiful view.
Very beautiful and peaceful.
Attention to detail. Clean. Free WiFi. Gas stove and rechargeable lights for load shedding. Will definitely return. Thank you Keith and Lesley for sharing this little gem with us.
Regarding safety ─ we are used to lock and bolt and alarms in Gauteng, that's not a negative comment, but one will have to get used to the fact that lock and bolt and alarms are not necessary in Clarens. The house is fenced. At no point did we feel unsafe.
Beautiful cottage, everything and more you need.
Lovely wooden cabin, cosy with all the luxuries needed. Lovely mountain views and within walking distance of shops.
The cottage was very well appointed. Gas heater and fireplace for the cold in Clarens.
Everything is perfect in the house. Everything reminds one of Heidi who lives in the mountains. View is fantastic.
Keith & Lesley, thank you very much for opening your doors to our family. Even with load-shedding, it was the most amazing experience to recharge our soul, mind, and body.
Mystic Mountain Cottage has everything you need for a relaxing holiday. The view from the patio is breathtaking. Free Wi-Fi helped keeping the teenagers busy. Well equipped, clean and neat. Would definitely recommend it.
We absolutely loved our stay at Mystic Mountain Cottage. We had the place to ourselves and didn’t need to see anyone the whole time we were there. The house is well appointed and has everything one needs for a short or a long stay there. My daughter loved feeding the birds, and we were very happy to be able to walk into town, as well as gaze out upon the beautiful mountains in the morning. It was a peaceful and restful stay and we will definitely come back again one day. I am so grateful that I was allowed to take the book I had started, home with me, thank you Keith!
Neat, practical accommodation with the most beautiful view!
Mystic mountain is fantastic. It is very clean and comfortable. Such a charming little place with plenty of amenities. The views are to die for! It is within easy walking distance to the main square in town. We took our dogs with us and it was perfect for them. They had the garden to play in. I wouldn't recommend it for small breed dogs as the palissade at the back has big gaps in between them, but for medium to large breed it's perfectly fine. Book with Mystic mountain, you won't regret it!
The house is nice clean and comfortable and everything at hand.
Beautiful, cozy house. Location is excellent. Neat and clean. Love country look. Fits environment.
Beautiful, neat place. Keith the owner was very helpful and friendly with the booking. We had a great time on the stoep.
The rooms are very small and in the log cabin one bothers each other with every movement. Every sound is audible. Very nice stay.
Beautiful house, fully equipped. Great relaxing in front of the fireplace. Beautiful view. Happy death thank you!
What a great experience. With the kick in, it was just wow! Als was just perfect! We truly said goodbye with a heavy heart. We will definitely be back to continue the memories.
Gaan beslis weer en sal dit vir enige iemand aanbeveel.
We recently stayed at Mystic Mountain and was pleasantly surprised by how well equipped this cosy home was. The location and views are awesome. Our dogs absolutely loved being on holiday in this dog friendly, fenced-off home. Appreciated the wild bird seed provided. Full DSTV channels and flatscreen TV!
The place is beautiful and the view just as beautiful. The location is fantastic. We couldn't find anything wrong. We appreciate the effort with which the cottage was furnished and no effort was spared. Truly a winner.
Mystic Mountain is a beautiful, well appointed 3 bedroom home. Very neat and clean and has everything you will need. Had a great stay there.
Mystic Mountain Cottage, het ‘n baie spesiale plekkie in ons harte, dis waar ons wil en moet bly as ons Clarens toe gaan. Buite is pragtig, die houtstoep waar mens kan ontspan en na die berge kyk vir ure en die voëltjies voer in die pragtige tuin, die oulike kleurvolle kombuis met alles wat jy nodig het, die kagel in die sitkamer, die boekkeuses uit die oulike boekrak en dan natuurlik daai lekker groot diep bad. Alles is pragtig, netjies en skoon. Regtig, home away from home, en ons eerste keuse in Clarens.
What a lovely place to stay. Neat, clean, well maintained. Will definitely recommend it to any one traveling you Clarens. Value for money.
We would recommend Mystic Mountain Cottage to anyone, not only is the house beautiful inside and out but the view is breathtaking. It is perfectly located, nice and close to the town, but not too close that it is noisy. We really enjoyed the place and the service was great!
The house was wonderfully clean and equipped with everything that one might need. Within walking distance fro the shops. Will definitely stay here again.
Was nice. Will stay there again.
We really enjoyed the place, even if we were only there for one night we would have liked to stay much longer! Very clean and everything works, well done! See you again soon.
Very neatly well planned, wonderful view, highly recommendable.
The place is incredibly beautiful. House was clean and very safe. I would definitely stay over again. Thank you.
Lovely cottage. It feels as if you're hidden away in the mountains, while, in reality, you're one block away of the main plaza. We left the car in the garage and explored the town on foot. Everything was so simple and the cottage has such a convenient location.
Attention to detail with everything you could ask for. Definitely to be recommended.
Had an enjoyable and relaxing stay. We did not need for anything. It's well situated and peaceful environment. Loved it,and will return for certain.
Best value for money. Neat and complete with a fantastic view.
Only recommendation would be that I would like a rubber mat in shower. Is a bit smooth. Furthermore, it was like heaven on earth! Would have liked to stay longer.
Mystic Mountain Cottage was like an oasis on our way back to Gauteng after the holiday at the coast. We had a great time relaxing before the last shift back home.
Would recommend anytime if you need a break from the hustle and bustle of the city.
The house is very neat and clean with everything you need. The view from the veranda is fantastic. Will definitely stay at Mystic Mountain Cottage again.
Ons het 'n heerlike naweek gehad. Lieflike huisie, lekker ontspan. Baie dankie.
The best self catering we have ever stayed in. I have recommended Mystic Mountain to everyone I know and everyone is now trying to book a weekend with you!
Clarens was the perfect destination for a solo break away from the usual 8am - 5pm routine, Mystic Mountain Cottage is well equipped with everything you need and walking distance from everything with the most beautiful view over the mountains, I will definitely stay there again.
Was a very nice weekend in a lovely house. Was very surprised when we walked in with everything so neat and in their place and homely, cozy atmosphere. Very nice stay.
Mystic Mountains is a beautiful gem in a very beautiful area.
Great stay here! A large wooden house with absolutely everything one needs! Beautiful view of the mountains! The 2 bathrooms are definitely a plus for a lot of people. Only problem: There wasn't a toaster grill (or not that we saw). But the rest of the stay was wonderful! Will definitely go there again.
Wonderful atmosphere, lovely town, excellent service, unbeatable accommodation.
Very neat and well equipped unit, beautiful views of the mountains! Close to everything.
The arrangements for the accommodation was 100%, stunning view and relaxing, central location. Thank you.
Will use Mystic Mountain again anytime.
Very neat and convenient. The fireplace is a big bonus.
The accommodation is very well equipped, decorated and located. At a walking distance of Clarens' downtown and all the restaurants, attractions. Also very nice/interesting hiking paths that we discovered in the host's documentation. We also appreciated the games and books in the chalet and the great view on the mountains from the terrace.
See star rating.
Good location and fully-equipped with everything you need.
We will give a 10 out of 10 for a review.
Many thanks to Keith and Lesley for the special arrangements with late arrivals. Although we did not meet personally, we felt as if we have met them. I'm convinced the house is a reflection on who and what they are in person. Everything is well organized and clean and tidy. Would love to stay there again, just for longer.
