The road is just terrible - and it puts you off having to leave your accommodation as you know you have to venture onto that road through town.
The Pub owners need a little education on how to create a cosy atmosphere as there was none. But restaurants are great.

Its an awesome little town with scenic views.
Its an awesome little town with scenic views. It has everthing you need but if you do happen to leave your entire bag at home, like me, Alice is just a 25km drive away. Everyone is friendly and helpfull and the nature walks are a must but maybe take a flask if cofee and or some water with in a backpack for the road. Overall it was a great experience and we will definitely be going back for the garden show in the summer. I was amazed at the large variety if azalias growing evrywhere. The pizza at the restaurant was amazing. The Savemor surprised us with a wide variety of cheeses and other food options.

A small friendly village. The Beer Brewery isa must visit.
A small friendly village. The Beer Brewery isa must visit. A walk in the Arboretum to the 39 Steps waterfall, the labaryth at the Edge and a visit to ST Paul's on the Hill are all all must do activities. Do yourself a favour and taste the locally brewed beer and enjoy the tasting in their garden or tasting room - th biltong bowl is also highley recomended.

The forest in the mountain is breathtaking beautiful.
The forest in the mountain is breathtaking beautiful. The road between Cathcart and Hogsback is only for serious 4x4 cars, no warning about the terrible condition. The chocolatier in the main road needs a recommendation as well as the warm pastries.
We travel extensively throughout South Africa, regularly staying in self-catering establishments. This was a stand-out stay, with probably the most amenities. The fact that even fire wood, kindling and pine cones were provided was just one of the aspects that made our stay one of the most comfortable and memorable. Thank you, Elizabeth and thank you Sandile. Best wishes, we wish you every success. We would return to your "home" at the drop of the hat, if only we lived closer to Hogsback.
Away with fairies gave us an amazing experience with the cliff bath, we didn't expect it to have hot water but to our surprise it had.
We were welcomed by a very friendly lady, she is the highlight of our trip.
Away with the fairies has everything you would wish for,the place was so peaceful.
It was beautiful as well, they also have 2 friendly Dogs who became our best friends.
Our friendly host even told us about other beautiful places in Hogsback that we didn't know.
Location is (I'm 99% sure) the best in Hogsback. The view is breathtaking and the cottage is perfectly situated to see all the landmarks of Hogsback. The cottage is unpretentious, but comfortable. It is well equipped and had whatever we needed. The manager Annari is amazing, she is welcoming and made us feel right at home like old friends. She was very helpful with everything happening in town with recommendations on where to eat, where to go and not to go etc.
The view from our room overlooked the river and garden area which was absolutely beautiful. The lady at the front desk was very friendly and helpful and really helped to make our stay a memorable one. The supper we ordered was delicious. The room was spacious and the fireplace was an absolute bonus. The bed was very comfy. My wife thoroughly enjoyed the jacuzzi bath. Will definitely stay there again and recommend it as a place to stay in Hogsback
I really loved how clean and historic the hotel was. It made me think that we were living in a different era. The hotel has a history and you can feel it. The staff treated us well and gave us some good tips on which restaurants to visit and where the starting points were for some nearby hikes. The town has a general loving atmosphere and everyone is welcoming and happy.
The Hogsback is one of the most beautiful places in South Africa. The indigenous forests, waterfalls, mist and fresh air are wonderful. The dinner we were served was 4 courses and all were delicious with extremely generous portions. Breakfast was excellent too - I especially enjoyed the fresh crumpets. This is a great place to visit and enjoy old fashioned hospitality!
Kings Lodge Hotel and Hogsback will always hold a special place to me. I have celebrated milestones under their care. It was a treat returning for some peace of mind. From their hospitality, to their rooms and their warmth, my stay was an absolute joy. My friend joined me this time and could completely understand why I love staying here.
Paolo was extremely hospitable! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Having stayed at various places throughout hogsback over the last 22 years - TIMELESS is truly the first place that feels like a home away from home. The small details such as the decor, amenities and overall cleanliness all add to the ambiance. The perfect family getaway!
The house is very spacious and is set in a beautiful location. The owner is very warm, welcoming and shared a lot of information with us about Hogsback. The essential oils shop on the premises is a must visit. We were especially happy about the house being dog friendly so we could take our dog with.
The place was amazing and the area of Hogs back beautiful. Staying at Maple Grove really enhanced the Hogsback experience. Will definitely make it a point to go Back. The Hosts, Lindsay and Peter was friendly and easy to deal with and of great assistance in exploring the area.
The cottage was beautiful and we loved the garden as well, almost seemed magical here...
Hogsback was a first for my kids and I and I would def recommend staying here and we will def want to come back again!
Graham was very welcoming and very helpful!
Lovely large cottage with verandah, in a little forest setting. Really well equipped and very comfortable. Gloria was a lovely friendly host and made us feel very welcome, giving lots of advice of things to do and see in Hogsback.
Wonderful cottage with a lovely host. Off the grid, so no load shedding worries. The fireplace was absolutely amazing for heating up the cottage. Beautiful garden. Great location. Great stay here in Hogsback!
The person at the reception desk was friendly and informative and booking in was easy. The location was perfectly situated overlooking the Hogsback forest.
