80 guests' feedbackBeautiful, quiet, safe and so, so cozy! Will be back!
Very relaxing, out of town venue. Beautiful property and a gracious host. All amenities you could ask for.
We had an enjoyable time and got to see new parts of South Africa.
Everything was just perfect. The most beautiful warm place. So cosy!
We had a very nice stay, there was a small kitchen, towels. Everything was nice and clean and they provided wood for the fireplace.
This accommodation is rustic, clean and set in a beautiful and tranquil setting. Exactly a place to relax and get some air.
The Clarens Country Home is lovely and everything was perfect. The hosts are very good and friendly and the extras in the house (such as cookies, lots of coffee, teas, and fresh milk in the fridge) were a nice bonus. It is a lovely place and we had the best time. Thanks!
Spacious overnight accommodation in quiet gulf estate at Clarens. Well equipped with warm blanket. Heaters on the walls to keep the cold out. Very nice and interesting decor. Eskom remains a challenge everywhere. Nice braai facilities with weber.
Warm welcome to the beautiful golf estate. Clean and quaint. Has everything you need even on a cold rainy day in which you never feel crammed in. Beautiful views from all the windows. Well kept appliences and features. Close enough to the main town.
Driving from Pretoria the scenic route via Golden Gate was lively with great photo opportunities. From Harrismith via Golden Gate the road also offered safe travels. The golf course was great and even joined the Clarens Parkrun scenic route. Thank you Toni for a lovely stay.
Beautiful location with breathtaking views. Owner was very friendly and helpful. Perfect weekend getaway.
Everything was so neat and beautifully decorated. Will definitely stay there again.
See stars.
The accommodation surprises with quality. It was unexpectedly cold, but with delicious coffee, home-baked cookies and a heated house, the visit was wonderful. Soft, new towels and good hair dryer were a bonus.
Very good service and neat accommodation.
Located within Clarens Golf Estate with security at gate 24 hours a day. Self-catering unit is opposite other units, but very private. The porch is divided up so that each unit has its own private porch. Wilde-als is at the closest point to the parking lot with its own fireplace and seating on the porch. Perfect for the cold Clarens winters. Inside, the one bedroom unit is clean and tidy with a king size bed and plenty of space. Enough heating and bedding to keep from getting cold. Self-catering: kitchenette with everything you need. Always a winner and value for money.
The accommodation was exactly what we were looking for. The place is outside Clarens on the Golf Estate, so take that into account if you want to be inside the town. But it's safe, quiet and literally 2 minutes drive from the center of town. Peter's art in the gallery inside the main house was breathtaking. We will definitely stay there again on our next Clarens trip.
Thank you Toni for the call on the day if our arrival - it provided a personal touch.Your house is beautiful- we will be back!
Safe, quiet and beautiful surroundings. We all had a great time staying and visiting. The fireplaces were lovely and cozy. It is safe and quiet and the nature around us was food for the soul. The kitchen was well equipped for 2 and the rooms spacious. Will definitely visit again in the future.
Enjoyable.
The breakfast served in the room is the attraction and highlight of the venue.
Clean, welcoming and comfortable.
Very neat and well equipped. More than just a room.
We had a great time with our family in Clarens at the Country House. The Golf Clubs and Balls were a winner!
Beautiful, well equipped accommodation. Breakfast is delicious and is served in the suite. Will definitely stay here again. It is everything and more that we needed. The fireplace on a cold night was very nice!
Lovely stay, very comfortable and convenient accommodation with special attention to detail. Beautiful area, friendly and helpful reception.
The Clarens Country house was a real pleasure to stay at. Especially because it is safe accommodation in a Golf Estate which is convenient and nice for walking. It is walking distance to the village as well. More importantly, my consideration for doing my booking there again is because the management welcomed my little Yorkie dog and that he was no problem for them. I would definitely recommend it.
Hospitality, cleanliness, silence and service indescribably good. Extremely well equipped apartment with more than one needs! Can't go wrong staying there overnight or for a few days!
We found the Ouhout suite superb. We were so warm and cosy and comfortable and spacious. They have thought of everything, even a pair of scissors to cut the coffee sachets. We will certainly recommend you and hope to be back sometime.
We were received very kindly. This is a very clean and unique self-catering unit. We give you 100% for how clean everything was. Thanks a lot Craig. We found the couches in the room and the chairs on the porch too hard, but the tubs were comfortable. It's just personal taste. The bed was also too hard, again personally we like a softer bed. Overall, it was a very good place to stay and we can recommend it. The breakfast was also very tasty.
We stayed in Sheppards Loft. What a stunning place. Clean, neat, convenient and includes every possible thing you might need. Maggie and her team went out of their way to offer great service. Would definitely stay here next time.
Very nice and well equipped accommodation. Would stay there again anytime.
Maggie was so helpful and made us feel at home instantly. Very clean and neat. Will make use of this accommodation often.
We had a great stay and really enjoyed it. It was nice and private and did not even se the other guests whom stayed at the same place. Delicious breakfast.
One can hardly improve on the location. We were received kindly and were made to feel welcome throughout. The facilities are great as is the cleanliness. We felt very safe at all times and will use the accommodation again.
Our only complaint (we live outside the city) was that the curtains were too thin to keep the light out. Fifteen minutes later, there were new curtains! Excellent service! I would ask for a reading lamp next to the chair, but its a small thing. We had a lovely stay.
Had a good stay and good night's rest in Clarens.
It was just awesome. Good and friendly service. Very nice place.
The Shepards Loft is just big enough for 2 people without you being under each other's feet. The place is spacious.
Many thanks to Toni and everyone at The Clarens Country House. We had a fantastic experience from the moment we got there. Wonderful warm, homely feel with a touch of art woven in. The facilities are convenient and comfortable. The security is great and it is very conveniently located for visiting Clarens.
We had a lovely stay at Clarens Country House. We were met personally upon arrival. The room was off to one side and private... luxurious, clean and very tidy. I especially liked the personal "touch" with Clarens bakery's sweet cookies and rusks together with the delicious filter coffee. Beautiful artwork in lobby. The green fee discount at the Clarens golf course was a further bonus. I will stay there again without a doubt... and so will my friends.
The weekend away was bitterly cold. So the 15 min walk to town we didn't dare and still drove, which was a shame. The porch (although there are fireplaces) was still too cold to use. We expected that people would be able to use the stoep even in winter. Otherwise a lovely weekend getaway. Great, neat and clean facilities.
Well located and comfortable accommodation. The place was recently upgraded so everything was clean and new but there were small issues that needed attention.
See the stars.
Lovely location and friendly service. Would definitely recommend!
We stayed in the Bosman suite which is very spacious. Everything was beautiful, neat and the little extras made it special. Milk in the fridge, biscuits, cookies, coffee, tea, sugar in the kitchen, soap and other goodies in the bathroom. The only negative is that your vehicle is not parked under a roof.
Great heating in winter. A cozy unit with lots of space and beautiful interior.
We had a great time! It was definitely good value for money, and a safe area. I will definitely stay there again.
Stunning place to stay. Everything you need in a place that takes your breath away.
Great place to stay!!
A beautiful place, very central to visit places!
It was our first time in Clarens and we did not regret choosing the area! We fell in love so quietly! The guest house was beautiful and the living area well equipped. We were also able to take a late afternoon walk around the area knowing we were safe. Really worth the effort and money! I have already recommended Country House to a colleague.

The facilities are good. The people are friendly, the view is breathtaking, even if it is winter. History touches a person.
The service from reception to maintaining the unit, was such a blissful and relaxed experience. From booking procedure to the weekend of absolute pleasure, brings you to a lost for words to write about. Heavenly experience.
The reception was excellent and the atmosphere is wonderful. This is a must visit place if you just want to rest and relax!
It was a lovely weekend in Clarens with the best accommodation, friendliest people and the most beautiful view. We will definitely stay there again!
We had a lovely stay at The Clarens Country House. I would recommend it to anyone.
In the late evening we were received by the landlady and "doorbell"...one of the four-legged friends who live on the property! Friendliness runs throughout from top management to the workers on the property. Nothing is too much trouble and they set up a cot for us in the room. The accommodation was neat, clean and comfortable. The most beautiful porch opens onto the lawn and we had no worries that our 15-month-old daughter could get hurt outside. We were surrounded by the most beautiful scenery and we could relax and take in the beauty of nature. It is ideal for a weekend getaway and where you don't want to be in the confusion of traffic and people! And of course very nice when you pack your golf kit!

The entire town was filled with friendly people. The culture captured is amazing and is even more beautiful with the mountain surroundings. We are so grateful for the time we had in Clarens, and will definitely be back!
Quiet environment. Beautifully furnished. Neat kitchen and equipment. Nice walk on the porch. Well equipped braai area.
Attention to detail makes this home away from home ... awesome!!! Will definitely be back to stay again :-)

Great location, excellent attention to detail and a welcoming feel. We will be returning to Clarens and stay at the Clarens Country House.
We loved it!
Beautiful surroundings. Staff very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.
What a wonderful and peaceful experience in the most beautiful setting with views that speak to the soul. Everything is of outstanding quality and taking a drive from Clarens to Fouriesburg is a must!! A visit to The Clarens Country House is highly recommendable.
The area is beautiful and the owners friendly. It really was an incredibly fun two nights, and every penny was worth it. We would definitely suggest it.
We stayed in the Shepherds Loft. Cosy, clean and warm, especially the hospitality!
We chose Clarens to go on Honeymoon... was it fun! We went to visit Lesotho, and of course ran the town flat. There was always something to do, and the atmosphere is great, and everyone is friendly. We will definitely go there again.

Awesome place to stay...close to everything!! :) Friendly staff and very neat and clean rooms!
Nice, cosy and private. We travel during the day but enjoy the evenings sitting in front of the fireplace and enjoy a glass of sherry. We will certainly use the venue again when we passing through. Wish our stay could be longer.
Most amazing place,people and area. Hosts were fantastic & helpful & accomodating.DEFINITELY recommend Clarens Country House to anyone that wants a relaxing, beautiful,perfect getaway.n
Toni is the perfect hostess, tending to every need and making sure that we were happy and comfortable 100% of the time. The rooms are beautiful and the view fantastic. I will definitely be going back, and all my friends are going with next time!
Our stay at this place was superb, from the time we entered until we left. The Shepherds loft (honeymoon suite) was very warm and cosy. We will be returning again, and bringing friends!
