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 brilliant, loved the homely feel of our suite (Frodo) and that we could self cater, the fireplace in the bedroom was absolutely amazing as it was chilly in the evenings and it lent such a lovely atmosphere. Right at the edge of the forest so easy to get to. The cliff bath was so special, monkeys running around outside and the resident dogs....OOOOHHHH and the amazing Kahuna massage we had with Amanda in the area overlooking the forest.
All staff were great!
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.
We stayed in heavens above cottage, and it was amazing. The view on the mountains is stunning and the outside shower and terrace made us appreciate it even more. The cottage is very spacious and well furnished. WiFi was working very well.
Hogsback is a great place to hike, with a lot of different trails around. We came with a small car and the gravel road to access the property was manageable.
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.
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.
Bramber cottage is in a beautiful location in the Hogsback. It is quiet with lovely views. It is convenient for The Edge and for Touraco restaurants and for the Satrurday market under the oaks at the Edge.
Eric and Gloria were marvellous hosts and Eric rescused us when we were stuck on a difficult local road!
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.
What an awesome place. Serene and calm in the Hogsback mountains. The host was super nice and offered for us to stay another night free of charge. Unfortunately we could not take him on his offer as we already had prior arrangements. Will definitely visit again.
We were very happy to stay here last minute as everything else was full because of a marathon. Breakfast payable in the hotel was good, the staff very friendly and helpful, and the electrical blanket and comfortable bed made for a good night's sleep.
The host Iryna was delightful, the owner very pleasant and funny. We loved the room, the view, the service, the breakfast and the premises as it was located very central. We had the best stay and will always stay there again when we're in Hogsback
Hogsback is a hidden gem and Maple Grove is a gem among gems. The room had everything we needed. The property was beautiful with a lush garden with a surrounding forest. The Maple meander was beautiful too. I definitely want to visit again soon.
The Location was beautiful and the accommodation was found in a neat and tidy condition. Very modern and the hosts (Christel & Pieter) kept us informed on all activities to be expected and to attend at 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!
Always love staying at Away with the Faeries when I visit Hogsback. The Striders cottages have a perfect view of the hog and is well located to explore the village.
