Breathtakingly beautiful.

What an absolute treasure this place is! The hosts have thought of everything to make one feel at home and safe, and the grounds/property are so well kept! Finding serenity in solitude was what I was after, and that's exactly what I got. It was above and beyond my expectations. Thank you, Graham, for your warm hospitality!

We had a very comfortable, relaxing, peaceful stay - close to town, walks etc.

The cottage we stayed in was clean, comfortable and very well equipped (i.e. with kitchen utensils, a gas bottle/plate for load shedding, a braai-stand, firelighters, and some wood for braai, spare blankets, etc.). The host was very friendly, accommodating and responsive to our requests. And the unit is located in a lovely peaceful garden environment.

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. Thanks for being such great guests. We would love to see you back at Nibelheim.

Kuier in die berge.

Hogsback is 'n pragtige nedersetting in die Amatolaberge. Pragtige woude mooi stap roetes alles wat jy nodig het om af te skakel. Jy kan basies alles kry die winkels in die dorp. Ons bly plek was pragtig en goed toegeris. Heerlike kaggel in die huis vir die koue nagte. Baie belangrik is dat jy die kraanwater kan drink. Dankie aan die eienaars vir n ongelooflike verblyf.

Hanging out in the mountains.

Hogsback is a beautiful settlement in the Amatola Mountains. Beautiful forests nice walking trails everything you need to switch off. You can basically find everything in the shops in town. Our stay was beautiful and well equipped. Lovely fireplace in the house for the cold nights. It is very important that you can drink the tap water. Thanks to the owners for an amazing stay.

Quiet, peaceful accommodation.

The chalet was not serviced, and we were there for 5 days/4 nights. We did not see anyone from the main house at all during our stay, except when we arrived. On arrival, we were told about the 30 establishments being sold in tiny Hogsback. Not heartwarming news.

Heerlike, rustige atmosfeer.

Het baie lekker gebly. Baie mooi en gerieflik ingerig. Sou lekker gewees het as daar 'n kragopwekker was vir die kragonderbrekings en WiFi en meer DStv-kanale sou ook lekker gewees het. Dink dit sal aanwins wees vir Nibelheim. Eienaar is baie vriendelik. Aangesien ek alleen gebly het, het dit baie beteken toe Graham bel en vra of ek reg is toe die krag af gegaan het. Goeie kliëntediens.

Lovely, peaceful atmosphere.

Had a great stay. Very nicely and comfortably furnished. Would have been nice if there was a generator for the power outages and WiFi and more DStv channels would also have been nice. Think it will be an asset to Nibelheim. Owner is very friendly. Since I was staying alone, it meant a lot when Graham called and asked if I was okay when the power went out. Good customer service.

Prentjiemooi natuurskoon omring jou verblyf. Wat meer wil jy hê?

Graham en Michele is die perfekte gashere! Nibelheim was ver meer as wat ons ooit kon gehoop het voor! Die kaggel het elke aand gebrand, die Samango apies het ons vermaak, die uitsigte en die gerieflikheid van die huis was alles wat ons verwag het en meer! Die natuurskoon wat so mooi en, onthou, dit was winter! In die somer en lente blom alles, so maak jou reg!

Graham and Michele are the perfect hosts! Nibelheim was far more than we could have ever hoped for!

The scenery so beautiful and, remember, it was winter! In summer and spring everything blooms, so get ready!
