Peaceful and serene. So cozy! The heater and electric blankets did the trick on that very cold Monday! Thanks.

Was great, will definitely return. Stayed at cottage 2. Great value for money. The cottage has everything a couple needs and also has a great view of the mountains from the braai area. I highly recommend staying here.

It was such a pleasure meeting you both and having you stay. Thank you for leaving the cottage so neat and tidy on check out, and for your support in staying with us at Gentle Presence Cottages. All the very best!

Dit was so 'n plesier om julle albei te ontmoet en om te bly. Dankie dat jy die kothuis so netjies en netjies gelos het met uitklok, en vir jou ondersteuning om by ons by Gentle Presence Cottages te bly. Alles van die beste!

Relaxing and refreshing! Ideally located, close to the shops and the mountain walks/hikes. Friendly hosts who ensured that our needs were met and made us aware of some hidden gems in and around Clarens. Thank you for your hospitality. The view and surroundings were amazing!

We only stayed one night. Everything is neat, clean and comfortable. Gentle Presence Cottage 2 is a neat and comfortable place to stay overnight. It has everything needed for a night or 2 stay. We had a nice stay.

Ons het net een nag oorgeslaap. Alles is netjies, skoon en gerieflik. Gentle Presence Cottage 2 is 'n netjiese en gerieflike plekkie vir oorslaap. Dit het alles wat nodig is vir 'n nag of 2 se oorbly. Ons het lekker gebly.

OK for a short stay. The accommodation is very small, to be honest, with some slight changes to the layout of the room, the space could accommodate seating better.

I sincerely regret that we were unable to meet your request to have a separate room from your spouse and upgrade you to our larger cottage, as it was occupied. The patio area with the braai and firepit seems to be a favourite among our guests and we noticed you enjoyed that area immensely. Most guests seem to spend more time outside enjoying the views than indoors. We have had guests stay for an entire week and they have enjoyed the cottage and used the extra chairs to watch TV and have meals indoors. A foldable table and trays are also provided. Our photos accurately display the space and facilities available. Cottage 2 is not just a room, but a fully functional kitchenette, offering excellent value to guests who want the ability to self-cater while enjoying good, safe, and value-for-money accommodation. All the best to you both!

Ek is opreg spyt dat ons nie aan u versoek kon voldoen om 'n aparte kamer van u gade te hê en u na ons groter kothuis op te gradeer nie, aangesien dit beset was. Die patio-area met die braai en vuurmaakplek blyk 'n gunsteling onder ons gaste te wees en ons het opgemerk dat jy daardie area geweldig geniet het. Dit lyk of die meeste gaste meer tyd buite spandeer om die uitsigte te geniet as binnenshuis. Ons het gaste vir 'n hele week gehad en hulle het die kothuis geniet en die ekstra stoele gebruik om TV te kyk en maaltye binnenshuis te eet. 'n Opvoubare tafel en skinkborde word ook voorsien. Ons foto's vertoon die beskikbare spasie en fasiliteite akkuraat. Kothuis 2 is nie net 'n kamer nie, maar 'n ten volle funksionele kombuisie, wat uitstekende waarde bied aan gaste wat die vermoë wil hê om selfsorg te hê terwyl hulle goeie, veilige en waarde-vir-geld verblyf geniet. Alles van die beste vir julle albei!

Fabulous. Our stay was absolutely lovely. The host is very friendly, kind and helpful. The cottage is perfect for two people, and the little afdakkie outside is perfect to sit and have some coffee in the morning sun! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

I'm so glad you enjoyed our new Cottage 2. It certainly has its own unique charm, especially for couples. I truly appreciate your support in staying with us and your kind remarks. Wishing you all the best!

Ek is so bly jy het ons nuwe Kothuis 2 geniet. Dit het beslis sy eie unieke bekoring, veral vir paartjies. Ek waardeer opreg jou ondersteuning om by ons te bly en jou vriendelike opmerkings. Wens jou alles van die beste toe!

Well located, meets requirements as a base for other activities. Our stay was pleasant. View from upper room very nice. Slept well and bathroom views good. Braai area is a bit inconvenient. Dustiness observed on surfaces. Limited DSTV, not quite correctly described on website.

Goed gelee, voldoen aan vereistes as basis vir ander aktiwiteite. Ons verblyf was aangenaam. Uitsig vanuit boonste kamer baie mooi. Lekker geslaap en badkamervoor-gesieninge goed. Braai-area is bietjie ongerieflik. Stowwerigheid op oppervlaktes waargeneem. Beperkte DSTV, nie heeltemal korrek beskryf op webtuiste.

Thank you for your kind review. Unfortunately, combating the dust in Clarens is a never-ending task as, except for the tarred main road coming into Clarens, all other roads are gravel/sand roads. It is virtually impossible to stop the dust, especially in the windy and dry seasons and with the regular vehicle traffic. To overcome this, the cottage is equipped with a feather duster, cleaning materials and tablecloths for the dining area. The cottage has a Smart TV and not DStv - guests are able to log in using their own passwords and stream DStv as we do have excellent fibre WiFi. Once again, thank you for your kind review and support in staying with us. We do hope you will visit us again when next in Clarens!
