CLARENS RETREAT
Self Catering Flatlet Accommodation
in Clarens, Northern & Eastern Free State,
Free State, South Africa

Clarens Retreat has undergone refurbishment by its new owners, an engineer and flower grower from England and is fast becoming one of the prettiest and best located guesthouses within Clarens.

The Retreat offers superb, versatile accommodation which is elegant, practical, and has a touch of British quirkiness! Our attention to detail will ensure you are able to relax from the moment you arrive! The patio areas are shaded with beautiful hand-built canopies modeled on the fine oak joinery reminiscent of England - a place to rest, relax, spend time with friends and family whilst enjoying the peace of the pretty garden or courtyard.

Ideally situated between the established village square and the emerging lower centre of the village, Clarens Retreat is within the shortest walk to any of the village attractions, shops, restaurants and galleries. With our drive coming directly from Main Street, we offer easy access for any type of vehicle and sufficient, safe parking within the confines of the property.

Set in its large, safe garden the Retreat offers beautiful views into the mountains. There are three separate Retreat units enabling us to cater for two people up to groups of ten.

People visit to enjoy an adrenaline rush, to take in the beautiful surroundings and art galleries - and sometimes both. There are hiking trails around the village. Golden Gate National Park is less than 20km away, whilst the more adventurous can bring their passports and visit Lesotho.
