64 guests' feedbackWe did not want anything; everything you can think of is provided, the house is spotless and very well equipped. The photos don't do the place justice.
We enjoyed our stay at Talking Trees. The owner's attention to detail is what makes the property so special. We will visit the property again. The owner is very friendly. The whole house is stylish.
The house was beautiful and well stocked; we did not want for anything.
Yes. Very neat place to visit.
Beautiful house with everything you need. 10 out of 10 for comfort! Decor tasteful! Lovely fireplace and indoor barbecue.
Cold but very nice.
Our stay was very lovely and would definitely recommend to others. We would only recommend some wood chopping boards for the kitchen.
We had a lovely stay in an extremely tasteful guest house. Everything you need and more. Feels like our home.
Fantastic stay. Not only beautiful, but also extremely comfortable. Everything needed is there. Each room with an en-suite bathroom was a big plus.
Our stay was magnificent.
Would recommend anyone to visit Talking Trees. It is a private, comfortable and tasteful cottage. Had a great time.
Our visit to Talking Trees was great! The house's decor is stunning and the house is very well furnished. Everything was neat and clean. The gas fireplace was lovely! Talking Trees we will definitely see again.
Just the following: 1. Grill, upon arrival, was dirty. 2. Room 4's trash was not emptied. 3. Floors in kitchen/living area need some attention. Other than that it was great. Will stay there again.
The house is very well equipped with a large living area. It is comfortable for 8 guests.
The house was pure pampering, fully furnished with everything needed. It rained all weekend, but the indoor barbecue saved us! The beds and linen were some of the best and there was lovely hot water. I can confidently recommend Talking Trees, I will definitely be going back again.
Well appointed, very pretty and very comfortable. All bedrooms have bathrooms en suite so perfect for a group. I would stay again and would definitely recommend it. There were plenty of added touches such as rusks, a coffee station with coffee pods as well as tea and normal coffee. There were dishwasher tablets for the dishwasher, a washing machine and tumble dryer (which we didn't use). There is also a very big garage and a large garden.
Had a great stay. The house is very beautiful, we enjoyed it very much.
Thank you very much for a wonderful weekend. The place reflects how beautiful the photos are. Everything you need in the kitchen is there. Als is so beautifully thought out and practical. It's a home away from home for sure.
We will definitely come again!
I will return to the house.
We had a great time, this was value for money. The home was exactly as per the pictures, and even more beautiful in person. We really enjoyed our stay and few of the guys even want to visit again with their families. We are greatly considering to return to this destination as our bi-annual friendship trips.
This was our 3rd time staying at Talking Trees. Beautiful, clean, spacious house in a very nice and quiet part of Clarens. The house has everything one needs for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Huge garden for the kids to enjoy. We will be back!
We really enjoyed our time at Talking Trees and will definitely go back. There was everything and more that one could look for in a self-catering house and everything was clean and tidy.
The house, interior, the yard. The scent. I'd go back again and again.
The house is very well equipped, neat, luxurious and they thought of everything, even lap blankets for the winter. There is a coffee machine and pods as well as fresh water and biscuits. The house is more beautiful than the photos and very conveniently located on the outskirts of Clarens.
Clean, neat and in a good location. The house was beautifully decorated and had everything we needed. We will definitely be returning.
Thank you very much for your arrangements. From day 1 everything was in place and well organized. Great communication and great stay. Thank you very much for all your effort.
Parents came from Durban with my two little brothers, my sister from Ermelo with her fiancé, and my family from Pretoria. Talking Trees was in the middle of us all and were able to enjoy a great weekend together as one big family. The 1st time in 10 years that we have all come together like this. The house could accommodate us all and made it so comfortable and special for us all. Thank you!
Beautiful house, well equipped, good quality linen.
The house and amenities are exceptional. Definitely will book again.
Perfect stay with amazing service in an amazingly comfortable home. Highly recommended.
A beautiful stay in Clarens as usual and would definitely use this accomodation again in the future!
The house is spacious and is fully equipped with everything. So much thought was given to finer detail.
We were really surprised at what we got for what we paid. We will all definitely visit Talking Trees again. The place is equipped with everything we could possibly have at our homes, and more! It was extremely neat and clean when we arrived and the place is very stylish, everything is of the best quality. There was also an unforeseen burst water pipe on the front lawn when we arrived, which the caretaker sorted out in moments. We had only been without water for a few minutes due to the quick action of Fran the caretaker.
Neat accommodation with everything you need. Ideal for a group of friends for a weekend.
Beautiful house with everything you need.
A group of 4 couples spent the night at Talking Trees on the way to a MTB race in the Karoo. The house is well situated and a short walk to town. Very neat and clean with all the amenities and plenty of bathrooms. A highly recommended stay.
The place was excellently equipped, comfortable, tasteful decor. Very well equipped. The environment is extremely peaceful, yet part of the residential area and not remote.
Very neat, clean and modern house. Fully equipped with only the best and everything you need. Fantastic view, lovely beds and bedding. Fantastic fireplace. Great amenities. Beautiful house in a beautiful village.
Beautiful house just outside the town, so you don't have to be in the noise. Neat and everything works!
It was our home away from home. We felt right home. The house is lovely, well kept and clean. We needed a quiet and peaceful place and this place delivered. Everything we could/did need was made available for our use.
See stars.
We needed a bread knife. There was also everything one would need.
Well equipped with everything needed to make the stay as comfortable as possible.
The house is tastefully decorated and exceptionally well equipped. The attention to detail makes it a true home away from home. We love this home and hope to visit it some time in future again.
The house was beautifully appointed. Could do with more heaters for the rooms so as they would be a nice ambient temperature. They really got chilly. No heater in the main room and the wall heaters in the other rooms don't make much difference. An extra geyser to service the 2 bathrooms would be great too. After 3 showers, there was no hot water and there were 7 of us.
It was very comfortable, tidy and well located.
The house is so beautiful and well equipped. Only needs a swimming pool for the very hot days.
Everything you need, clean and comfortable. Will come again!
Talking Trees Self-Catering House left me amazed! Every little detail has been thought of, fully equipped kitchen with everything and more that any woman's heart could desire to cook for her family and friends. Amenities are top notch, decor, linens and cleanliness are of the highest quality. You are spoiled for choice with a dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer should you need them. Peaceful atmosphere with lots of space around you, close enough to the center of town and far enough to experience the tranquility! Talking Trees will definitely see us again and I'm already recommending it to anyone who wants to go to Clarens!
The house is very comfortable, clean and fully equipped. What a pleasure to be able to stay there from Grandma to primary school children. The children really enjoyed the lovely lawn around the house. The house is equipped with everything you need and the rooms are spacious and very comfortable. It was a pleasure to be able to stay there. Will definitely stay here again if I visit Clarens again!
Lovely, neat place and would definitely pay a visit again.
Very cute little place. Very neat. Home away from home. Will definitely be back.
Wonderful, neat, and spacious accommodation with stunning mountain views around Clarens. Friendly and helpful owner. Can recommend this place with a clear consience and will definitely be back.
We spent a lovely weekend in beautiful autumn Clarens! Talking Trees Self Catering House is very comfortable, homely, well furnished and a nice living and visiting house. Wish we could stay longer. Good value for money, I can recommend it anytime. Can't wait for our next visit there.
Talking Trees is very convenient, stylish. One relaxes upon entering. It's conveniently located and 5 minutes' walk from the restaurants. Would recommend for a getaway.
Everything was beter than expected. Distance to town centre not quite walking distance, but that doesn't have a negative effect on the value of accommodation at Talking Trees.
It was a great experience, everything went smoothly. The accommodation was of high quality, neatly clean and very tastefully decorated.
Beautiful little house in the heart of Clarens with breathtaking views of the mountain. Rained a lot when we arrived. Could get directly into the house from the garage. Gas fireplace was also very handy. Clean, neat and stylishly furnished. Would stay here again.
Talking Trees's house is perfect in every way. Everything that you can ask for and more!
Our family found this gem through LekkeSlaap, where we were helped quickly in our own language. We couldn't believe our luck when we arrived and found, aside from the bad weather brewing, a remote control to take us straight into the double garage from where we could offload and directly enter the house. The accommodation is of excellent quality with a lot of attention given to the detail. Clean, neat and well laid out with a braai right at the kitchen door. We could have a braai, even in bad weather and braai salt and spices available, as we left ours at hom. The fireplace and small blankets kept the cold at bay and created a lovely, cosy environment. There is space for 8 people and with 2 full bathrooms with baths and showers as well as an extra toilet with a basin, it was very comfortable and spacious enough. The house is equipped with everything you might need, from a bottle opener to a lovely, soft bath towel and full DStv. It is only a kilometre's walk from the heart of the town of Clarens and all the facilities, along a road with a beautiful view.
An exquisite and stylish house. So warm in the winter. Stunning view over the mountains.
The house is very modern and neat. Everything is so well appointed and not only did we get friendly and prompt service, but you really feel at home in this house. We were a group of 6 and the space in the house never once felt that toes were being stepped on. The kitchen is so well equipped and no one could complain that something was out of place. We will definitely be back.
Talking Trees is well equipped with everything you need to just relax and prepare your own food. The fireplace was such a treat because it was very cold outside. The view of the mountain is unbelievable. And more than enough sleeping space.
