    Breakfast was lovely - the bacon omelet was delicious! It was served in the room/patio - We had water refills every day, which was great and filter coffee with cold milk in fridge. The fresh flowers added a home away from home touch and the room...

Company info

It has taken me a long time to find my place in this world. And that is in the village of Clarens, with my own guesthouse !! I am reflected in every bit of Upper House. I have a love of decor and serene surroundings. I adore making people happy. I love to treat people to the finer things in life. It took me a year of renovations and decorating to finally have what I am proud to offer guests. I am chatty and funny and love good food. I bake and I cook.

Property info

I believe that if you are to be staying at a guesthouse the standard has to be at least equal to that of your own home. I have tried to do this with Upper House. Every detail has been chosen to make sure that you enjoy your time with us. The linen, the glasses, the towels and the quality breakfasts - all there to make your stay very special.

Neighborhood info

Clarens is a village and we have all the accouterments that go with village life. Politics, gossip, one-upmanship, magnificent scenery, wonderful quirky shops, the great outdoors, fascinating people, lasting memories.
