Nestled in the one of the most sought-after tourist getaways in South Africa, namely the town of Clarens, Forest View is a home away from home, with everything needed to create a comfortable, memorable holiday for the whole family. The fully self catering house is situated in the quiet scenic area of Clarens called the Swartland, and is a leisurely 10 minute stroll away from shops and the town square where there is a great selection of galleries and restaurants. Forest View is surrounded by a large garden and sports great views of the surrounding mountains of the Rooiberg. Forest View is a birder’s paradise as it is situated across the road from a wooded area. The double volume living area of the house is large and welcoming, with two lounges and a dining area, a fire place, underfloor heating and a spacious patio with built-in braai for entertaining family and friends. The house is north facing with large windows for maximum warmth and light. AccommodationThree bedrooms are able to accommodate six people in total.
