Ons hoop julle het die volle DSTV geniet toe julle die Bokke ondersteun. Dit is net een van die dinge dat ons anbied, die ander is die gratis WIFI. Dankie vir die kommentaar oor skoonheid en netheid. Ons probeer ons bes om ons gaste sy verbly 'n goie een te maak. Ons kry gewoonlik 5 sterre hier en oop meeste besprikingplatforms soos Airbnb, Booking.com en is altyd beskikbaar om te help as daar iets is wat aandag nodig het. Jammer oor al die reen, weet dit kan frusterend wees op vankansie. Lekker bly en kuier weer gerus as julle weer Clarens besoek.

Everything and more than we expected.
I can definitely recommend Gentle Presence. The view of the mountains is lovely, the cottage is equipped with everything we needed and there were all kinds of extra treats that we didn't expect. We were very kindly received and would definitely like to stay there again.

The name does it justice!
The place is walking distance from the town's square, security is good and gives a good night's rest to our Johannesburg residents. Neat and comfortable is a good summary of the cottage.

Rest for a city soul with the most beautiful view of the mountains!
Pat and Colin made us feel at home long before we arrived, with phone calls and special information about the house and surroundings. The beautiful heritage house is well equipped and the view of the mountains, specifically from the bedrooms, is indescribably beautiful! One's soul calms down and comes to rest in the most beautiful surroundings.
