61 guests' feedbackIt was a lovely stay. The people involved were so helpful and friendly. The cabin was so cute and the views were beautiful.
Groenhoek Guest Farm is perfectly situated should you wish not to stay in Clarens. Beautiful, scenic and peaceful break away. We truly enjoyed our stay. We were received by a very pleasant and helpful guy that made us feel welcome immediately.
I travelled with my two daughters for a weekend getaway, expecting a very basic lodge because of the decent and affordable pricing. When we arrived we were blown away by the beauty and location of the cabin. Situated on the foothill of the mountain with amazing views, the cabin was fully equipped, complimentary soaps and creams for my girls, DStv, WiFi, fridge freezer, microwave, cutlery, crockery, a gas stove and gas geyser ensured there was sufficient hot water. They even provided us with a complimentary daily bag of mixed wood for an amazing braai. The service and welcoming of the staff was also surreal - very happy!
Amazing unit, I was not expecting such a beautiful view and such a beautiful house. Truly so adorable, the bath was so nice and there was constantly hot water available, which really sold the experience. Would stay again, just disappointed I didn't book for longer.
Accommodation is very clean and aesthetic. Everything works. The staff are super friendly and assist promptly.
Very cute place in the heart of the mountains.
I would recommend Groenhoek to anyone looking for affordable accommodation in the northern Drakensberg. The facilities were good, tidy and value for money. The caretaker was friendly and very helpful.
We had a very nice stay. Beautiful, peaceful surroundings and the cottage was well furnished and very tidy. Will definitely stay here again. Hopefully we will experience snow next time!
Neat and spacious. Friendly staff. Very nice location. Will go again!
Very nice location. And good service.
We had such an amazing time, such amazing services and the location was absolutely stunning, would definitely go there again.
Yes, I had a very nice stay. It was very comfortable and I will definitely visit again.
We got there in the dark and woke up the next morning to the most beautiful view. We have been going to Clarens for years and staying at different places, but this was definitely one of the nicest places. If you don't want to stay within Clarens and want to get away, the place is definitely for you! The place is spacious and tidy. Will definitely return again.
Beautiful spot to stay in. Very cosy fireplace. The roof needs maintenance though as it was leaking.
Exceeded our expectations.
The scenery was absolutely amazing and just wow! The host was very accommodating and we loved the stay. Will definitely return in the future.
Beautiful location lovely.
Very nice wooden cabin with a breathtaking view. Will definitely go back again.
Majweng is a lovely, cozy place with beautiful interior decoration. It had everything we needed for the night's stay, and having a fireplace with wood supplied for the cold evening was an absolute treat!
Lovely cottage. Nice views - sorry that it was currently burning terribly in the area.
Yes, would definitely recommend the place, rates very reasonable. Something the place could pay attention to, there was only one wine glass, no egg spoon, trifles nonetheless.
We had a very nice stay, thank you. Friendly and helpful staff.
Had a great experience, really enjoyed the stay.
Perfect location and great views!
Amazing view. If you fancy a quiet weekend away, this is definitely the place! Everything was super clean.
We had a lovely break.
Very friendly service with a beautiful view. So peaceful and value for money.
Had a good experience. The view was very beautiful and the facilities were up to standard. Just one small thing, the gas geyser couldn't get the tub that hot when we were there. Furthermore, it was very nice to sit there on the deck and look at the mountains.
Had a great stay, but the water supply was a problem, on 2 occasions!
Breathtaking sunrise! Fantastic views and every evening concluded with a fiery departure due to a nice fireplace.
See stars.
The location was not as remote and isolated as I had hoped, but the units were clean, and the place was largely quiet enough to be able to sleep in in the mornings, albeit that the cabins are fitted with light roller blinds that let in a lot of light.
It's a very nice place, but one morning we had no water at all due to not the cold. However, I feel that the owner can only warn one in advance that everyone took a bath the night before and took water with them for toothbrushes. There are also places on the site where there are open cables sticking out on the way to the children's climbing frame, and the swing was broken and just left on the ground. It's a very cute place and we will definitely go again, but there are a few things they could fix and maintain more for future customers.
Beautiful setting, excellent addition to have heated blankets on the beds as it gets very cold in winter, cosy fireplace and beautiful sunrises.
Everything that was promised was there. I had a great time.
It's 15 minutes outside the town, quiet, safe and so beautiful! I will definitely go back!
The private hike is not to be missed! Most beautiful mountain pools!
The views were amazing and this is the perfect place to just relax and enjoy the surroundings.
Only 10 km outside the town, very nice view on a farm, against a mountain. Very nice stay.
Unit was better than we expected. We had problems with hot water from the hand shower.
Great place to just relax and unwind, see the stars at night, build a fire, have a braai, let one’s worries disappear.
Everything you need for self-catering and perfectly comfortable. But don't expect a 5-star hotel room. Needs some light maintenance on chalets. There is a great hike from just behind the chalets going as far as you want to make of it. Good location for visiting Clarens and Golden Gate.
Spectacular views on a lovely farm. Our family took up one cabin with two beds and two en suite baths (no showers) and another couple took up one of the one bedroom cabins. The owner went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. Would definitely recommend.
The view is picture perfect, perfect to just rest and shut off from the outside world.
Nice outdoor barbecue with a free bag of wood.
The overall stay was enjoyable. However, some parts of the farm/cabin need some maintenance. If the owners fix these up, it can be a five-star stay.
Units run-down, tub and toilets stained, not good value for money in terms of what they are charging.
Problems experienced: 1. No reception, call them and they would meet us at the chalets on Friday afternoon. Drove on Monday and still waiting. 2. They don't answer calls. Normal line or WhatsApp. 3. On Saturday morning, one chalet's guest was finished. No hot water. No phone is answered. 4. The gate at the entrance was bent, 1 person with a lot of difficulty could open the gate. Two persons could not close the gate completely. 5. Bathroom sink had no hot water. The faucet could turn almost 360°, was completely loose. 6. Some of the kitchen cupboard doors are falling off. All could not close. 7. The 1 bedside lamp's wall plug made a short circuit. Couldn't use it. 8. Etc.
The most beautiful view and has nice braai facilities.
Beautiful peaceful view of Golden Gate. Beautiful sunset.
The cabin is exactly what you can expect based on the photos. Secluded, peaceful, quiet and calm. A stone's throw from Clarens and the Golden Gate Highlands National Park.
Thank you very much for a lovely sleepover. Beautiful surroundings and a lovely unit, with a nice big bath and plenty of hot water, as a bonus.
Stunning getaway. Definitely will be going again.
The only downfall is the shower head doesn't work, it only lets out cold water so you have to bath.
A little bit of a bumpy check-in at first, but once we were settled it was the most amazing experience. We recommend doing the full hike which includes going down the river and past the cave. It is however challenging, moderate - difficult, with steep inclines so wear appropriate gear. We had hoped for on-site catering, however, this was unavailable but there are a few restaurants in the area including activities. Quad biking is available on-site, a single automatic and manual quad bike. Horse riding is available as well but the horse riding on the neighbouring farm specialises in trail riding. We were lucky to catch some of the very shy game. The cabins are as represented in the photos, spacious and comfortable! The farm provided us with firewood, even topped us up when it was raining and the kitchen is fully catered for including a gas stove. I had no network access however my partner had limited access. We did have access to DSTV for entertainment. Overall our stay was beautiful and peaceful, the hosts were very informative and helpful. We mostly enjoyed viewing the stars on clear nights and the patio views early in the morning.
Close to Golden Gate Nature Reserve which makes it ideal for hiking.
I don't think I would recommend for the following reasons. One can observe that maintenance of the place is deteriorating. The hot water tap in the kitchen did not work. We informed and asked for it to be repaired. It was not done. I made a plan myself to get hot water in the kitchen. Both faucets in the bathroom hand basin were not functioning. Cold water tap not at all, hot water tap opens a little. But no hot water. As advertised there should have been a hairdryer which was not there. We informed and asked them to please. sort out. They did after a few hours. The WiFi was on and off, and on the last day it didn't function at all. We didn't report it, because by then we were a bit tired of being asked. Overall you can tell the place is going downhill and I don't believe it's good value for that type of money.
Overall beautiful and relaxing area. Lafikeng cabin needs some repairs (cupboard door loose, toilet roof leaking, bathroom tap is loose, etc. ). Checked-in at 15:30 and cleaner was still busy cleaning (argued that check-in time was not 14:00). Bathtub was not properly cleaned. Otherwise, good stay.
I planned a birthday for my fiancé and after seeing the photos of Yarona Guest Farms, I decided on this for the ideal stay. I had to pay R2530 in full for the booking. On Thursday we traveled a long distance to Clarens and only stopped at Yarona Guest Farms very late. 1. Facilities get a 0 from me. There were no towels, no coffee facilities and the TV and hairdryer were also absent. The next morning at 9 o'clock someone left a TV on the balcony couch for us. 2. The house where we stayed is not maintained, the skirting board of the entertainment area hangs on its mercy, the balcony's floor nails you have to look out for and definitely not where you can walk around barefoot. 3. Safety gets a 0 from me - The porch has nails that easily stick out 4 cm and if you don't look carefully, you will cut yourself badly. The trampoline is now just an empty hole, not at all safe for children to play in that area. I feel like I wasted my money with this booking and after 48 hours of complaining to the website I'm still waiting for a response.
