The place is very good value for money. Loved it. The place is very good value for money. It is clean and well looked after. The host was very friendly and gave a nice warm welcome. The location is perfect (close to the village - within walking distance). There is a small view of the mountain, which is also nice. It's perfect for a weekend getaway. I would definitely recommend it.

Cozy little place that offers good value for money. Excellent value for money. Well located, clean and tidy.

Gesellige plekkie wat goeie waarde vir geld bied. Uitstekende waarde vir geld. Goed geleë, skoon en netjies.

Michelle was really nice and friendly and very helpful. It was adequate, there were water issues, and the gate entrance to the property was difficult. There were no lights on the walkway to the cottage at night. The garden was a real mess. The WiFi did not work at all.

We are sorry to know that you had difficulty with the gate. The extra lever at the top is there to stop the wind from rattling it and causing noise. Michele says she explained that the cold water was always cloudy with fine bubbles, not chemicals, in the morning but it settles and clears quite quickly. This is due to the municipality turning off the water at night in order to fill the reservoirs and conserve water. There are small solar lights along the pathway and more have been added. The garden was a mess because of two burst pipes and the gardener did not have time to completely tidy it up before the end of the day. We apologise for that. The WiFi is always on and Michele says she gave you the code and password. It's a pity you did not contact her as she would have sorted it out.

Ons is jammer om te weet dat jy gesukkel het met die hek. Die ekstra hefboom aan die bokant is daar om te keer dat die wind dit laat ratel en geraas veroorsaak. Michele sê sy het verduidelik dat die koue water soggens altyd troebel was met fyn borrels, nie chemikalieë nie, maar dit sak en word redelik vinnig skoon. Dit is as gevolg van die munisipaliteit wat die water snags afgeskakel het om die reservoirs vol te maak en water te bespaar. Daar is klein sonkragligte langs die paadjie en meer is bygevoeg. Die tuin was deurmekaar weens twee gebarste pype en die tuinier het nie tyd gehad om dit voor die einde van die dag heeltemal op te ruim nie. Ons vra om verskoning daarvoor. Die WiFi is altyd aan en Michele sê sy het vir jou die kode en wagwoord gegee. Dis jammer jy het haar nie gekontak nie aangesien sy dit sou uitgesorteer het.

Adequate although a bit disappointed. The place is very cute, everything you need for the day or 2. Didn't notice that there was no TV and also our toilet's flushing mechanism didn't work. There were a bunch of bottles of water near the entrance in case the water was off to flush the toilet - but then the water worked, but not the flush. Feels safe, well located, looks clean, bed also very uncomfortable (hard).

Voldoende alhoewel bietjie teleurgesteld. Die plekkie is baie oulik, alles wat mens benodig vir die dag of 2. Nie opgelet dat daar nie TV was nie en ook het ons toilet se spoelmeganisme nie gewerk nie. Daar was 'n klomp bottels water naby die ingang vir ingeval die water af was om die toilet te spoel - maar toe werk die water, maar nie die spoel nie. Voel veilig, goed geleë, lyk skoon, bed ook baie ongemaklik (hard).

A wonderful break from the busy, everyday life - peacefully in nature. Elysia - small place, but you don't need anything more. Lush garden with abundance of birds and various insects. View of mountains a bit limited, but with all the hiking trails available, this is not a problem either. Had a great time with Michelle - loveliness in itself.

Heerlike wegbreek van die besige, alledaagse lewe - rustig in die natuur. Elysia - klein plekkie, maar jy het niks meer nodig nie. Welige tuin met oorvloed voëls en verskeie insekte. Uitsig van berge bietjie beperk, maar met al die staproetes beskikbaar, is dit ook nie 'n probleem nie. Het heerlik met Michelle gekuier - dierbaarheid vanself.

My getaway was exactly what I needed. Michelle makes you feel welcome and at home from the moment you arrive. Elysia Cottage is private, and for bird lovers like myself it feels like time stands still when you sit in the front garden, watching the birds. The cottage itself is very comfortable, homely furnished, everything is there to make one's stay enjoyable. It is also only a few minutes walk from the center of town. I would recommend Elysia Cottage without hesitation to anyone who wants to enjoy the peace and quiet of Clarens' nature.

My wegbrekie was presies wat ek nodig gehad het. Michelle laat 'n mens van die aankoms af welkom en tuis voel. Elysia Cottage is privaat, en vir voëlliefhebbers soos myself voel dit of die tyd gaan stilstaan wanneer 'n mens in die voortuin sit, die voëls dophou. Die cottage self is baie gerieflik, huislik ingerig, alles is daar om 'n mens se verblyf net lekker te maak. Dit is ook net 'n paar minute se stap van die midde-dorp. Ek sal Elysia Cottage sonder huiwering aanbeveel vir enige persoon wat die stilte en rustigheid van Clarens se natuur wil geniet.

Accommodation was fantastic. All was great except for the shower. The floor in the shower is extremely slippery.
