"The morning walk with Dawn"

Jill Morse

"This was a very well-equipped apartment, with great outlook. Dawn was very helpful and her offer of joining her on her morning walk at 6am was taken up by some of our party who thoroughly enjoyed the walk and talking to Dawn."

"Thank You we did love staying at your BnB and thought it was very nice except for the fact that the taps in the room by the microwave needed a new washer and dripped until e turned them off so tight we could hardly turn them on. Also the ends of the curtains had not been secured properly so all the curtain clips came off which was very irrritating. I did feel that the large blanker we were given could have done with a wash but other than that we were very happy and thought it was lovely and will definately be back"


"Stunning views from our upstairs patio!"

Cassi Snyman

"Dawn is so accommodating, a bit far to walk to and from town at night if it's winter but perfect for walking there in the day! "


"Well worth the price!"

"Conveniently located on the main tarred road, less than 5 minutes walk from the town square, but still far enough away to be quiet. The owner was very friendly and assisted us with our plans around Clarens. The room was cleaned daily and was comfortable. Well worth the price! However, if you are going to Clarens for rest and relaxation - be sure to go off-peak and during the week, as it gets very busy peak season and weekends. The town itself is lovely with many art shops and restaurants. I would definitely stay at Eddie's again. "

"A wonderful welcome from the hostess Fran, as Dawnwas on leave.Well equipped upstairs flat with everything needed incl a family size fridge. Thankfully wi-fi was included which was lacking in other places along the way, on our holiday. LOVED the view. The only downside for us as very slight sleepers; was being made aware of the time regularly throughout the night by a bell in the village, but leaving the fan on drowned that out on our second night. Some delightfully quirky little things, and the unit was spotlessly clean. Will recommend a stay there. "

You can self cater if you wish, but why bother when a plethora of restaurants are at your doorstep? A short stroll into the village and you are spoilt for choice of places to eat and things to look at. Highly recommended and faultlessly run by Dawn."

"After booing this accommodation based solely on the reviews I read, I have to say I agree with everyone who says it is a gem in Clarens. We arrived on the Friday afternoon and were greeted by Dawn the owner. She is absolutely lovely, knows everything there is to know about the do's and donÕts of Clarens and is willing to give any of her guestsÕ advice. We stayed in the unit called Santa: very cosy with a fireplace, heated blankets and our own little kitchenette. And for only R30 a day the room gets cleaned, dishes done, beds made etc. We were really impressed with the quality of the room; the bedding was lovely as was the mattress. We will most definitely consider Eddie's again if we return to Clarens."

Dawn(owner) took us for a mountain walk of which I think was very adventurerous for 'Gautengers' and has taught us a lesson that no matter how hard the climbing can be, ones you have reached your peak, the rest will just be smooth. Thank you Dawn."

However we tried to change booking from 12 to 8 people but were refused and we had to settle the full bill for 12 people only to hear that accomodation was desperately needed for the weekend (weddings etc). We could have saved some money and others could have had accomodation if only the request to change the booking could have been granted. It is recommended that the policy on changing bookings be reviewed."

"My family spent one night at Eddie's and absolutely loved it there! It was more than what we have expected and we're really glad that we chose Eddie's. We stayed at the unit called June. It is a two bedroom, self-catering unit. The unit is well equipped, cozy, clean and homey. The view from the units (in particular June and Santa) is spectacular! Overlooking the Maluti Mountains. The owner, Dawn, welcomed us as we arrived. She is such a warm, friendly person and quite an artist too - beautiful paintings inside the unit are painted by her. We definitely recommend Eddie's to anyone coming to Clarens. Can't wait to plan our next trip to Clarens and looking forward to stay at Eddies again!"

It's also just a short walk to the town centre, so it was convenient while also being quiet. And Dawn's price was excellent. We had another quote for the same nine days that cost R9000 more - needless to say we didn't accept it. Dawn was away for most of the time but stand-ins Francois and Jan looked after us very well. (And as a footnote, if you are taken ill in Clarens (which my wife was), the Hoogland Medi-Clinic in Bethlehem deserves the highest praise. It's like hospitals used to be!)"

Just one small suggestion - the small units could do with a fan or air-con - it was very hot inside the unit as it was a scorcher of a day until later the evening when it cooled off with the rain."

"We got married in Clarens Methodist Church 7 years ago. It is tradition to visit Clarens since then for our aniversary annually. We (two adults and two kids) managed to book ANKI at Eddies during the weekend of 30 August -1 September 2010. This was without doubt our best experience of Clarens. The main contributing factor was the luxurious facilities of Anki with her spacious rooms, well equipped kitchen, fire place, the best view of the Maluti's from the stoep - where we shared as family good memories while we enjoyed good wine and the tranquility of this precious pearl of the Free State. The overall cleanliness of the unit, the secure parking area, the fact that we were at walking distance from the major shops, restaurants and attractions added to our good memories of our stay. One thing is sure, we will visit Clarens again and we will ensure that we stay next time again at Eddies. "
