Woodlands Retreat

Testimonials

We arrived to a gorgeous little haven in the shadow of a beautiful sandstone cliff on the edge of Clarens. Quiet and serene, but an easy drive and reasonable walk to the hustle and bustle of it all in the village. Sherrene and Roy extended a very warm welcome and made us feel incredibly at home in their lovely refurbished self catering unit. Everything was beautifully put together and we had everything we could possibly need for a lovely little getaway in a stunning part of the world. Whilst incredibly bubbly and warm, Sherrene and Roy left us very much to our own devices and we had a private entrance with our own patio with a view of their lovely garden. It was just ideal. I wish Sherrene and Roy all the very best – they’ve a special little spot – we’ll definitely be back.

Communication with Sherrene before booking and arrival was excellent with a fast response to all our enquiries. Even though we turned up unannounced 6 hours early we were greeted with a friendly smile and allowed into the room. The room is great with everything you need to self cater and was kept spotless throughout our stay. We slept very well in the comfy bed and the shower was a delight. Sherrene and Roy were charming hosts throughout and we even went out together on our last night. Thoroughly recommended.

Clean and well kept, it's small and neat for a place to sleep only. Not a great place for kids but for a couple who are out and about it works

I think its time to review your online description of the property.Cherry Studio is terribly cramped, for two people. How on earth do a family fit in there? Kitchen is too small & poorly laid out. Bathroom is minute! A larger person will seriously struggle in the there. No shelf or vanity cupboard. Room also needs a deep clean. Kitchen & bathroom shades are grimy. Toaster is dirty. Dirty behind microwave on fridge. Dust bunnies at plugs behind beds. Double bed length ways against wall not ideal. Mattress very hard, not comfy. Garden gives impression of being neglected & scruffy. Owners away, saw manager once, greeted in passing only.Overall certainly not worth R900/n. From write-up & deceiving photography, we expected more. Pity.
