Great location & lovely home. We enjoyed our stay at Memories in Clarens. We were very comfortable, even in the chilly winter, and the location was perfect; easy walking distance to the main square with all the restaurants and shops. Our hosts made us feel very welcome.

The perfect spot for a perfect getaway. If you're looking for the perfect spot to spend a weekend exploring Clarens, I would definitely recommend Memories. It is situated just a short walk from the centre of town, but just out of the way enough to have some peace and quiet. The cottage is very welcoming and has everything you'd need and more. Beautiful views from the patio. Will definitely be back.

Nice weekend in Clarens. The house has everything you could need. The yard is very large with a beautiful view. Walking distance to all the shops and eateries.

Lekker naweek in Clarens. Die huis het alles wat jy kan nodig kry. Die erf is baie groot met 'n pragtige uitsig. Loopafstand van al die winkels en eetplekke.

Adequate but not great. Convenient location, close to the square and nature reserve. Some beautiful antique furniture and quirky decorations, but the house shows its age and needs some work, e.g. front door, bedroom windows and shower fittings. Large stand but neglected and undeveloped garden. Not at the standard of a lot of other Clarens accommodation in the same price range.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed our convenient location, the antique furniture, and the unique character of our 100-year-old home. We’d like to clarify a few points for future guests: the garden is intentionally kept spacious and simple, with large areas of neat lawn rather than full flowerbeds, so that it feels restful and uncluttered. Around the house itself, everything is well-maintained. The house has recently been repainted, the linen is crisp and fresh, and the shower and its fittings are brand new. As with many century-old homes in Clarens, a little character comes with age – the bedroom windows sit slightly skew due to the natural settling of the foundations, but they are clean, properly sealed, and in good working order. The front door and other fixtures are also in sound condition. We appreciate that not every guest looks for the same style of accommodation, but for those who enjoy the blend of history, charm, and modern comforts, our guesthouse offers a unique experience. It is our pride and pleasure to share Memories Guesthouse with our guests, and we will continue our efforts to make their stay memorable.

Have fun. Now that was fun. Had a nice time with family. Love that there wasn't a TV. Kids enjoyed being without a device.

Lekker gerus. Dit was nou lekker gewees. Lekker tyd saam familie gewees. Hou daarvan dat daar nie 'n TV was nie. Kids het dit geniet om sonder 'n toestel te wees.

Elsabé was an excellent hostess. Elsabé was extremely considerate and helpful.

Elsabé was 'n uitmuntende gasvrou. Elsabé was uiters bedagsaam en hulpvaardig.

Lovely restorative peaceful stay. The house is really charming, tasteful and it was a great experience staying there! The host is very attentive and friendly. Best of all is the location of the house, it is behind Bibliofile and about a block from the square - which makes it optimal to explore the town, or to quickly nip over to the bakery in the morning for fresh bread with breakfast. But also far enough from the bustle of the town to give peace and quiet.
