Ontspannend en rustig.

Die verblyf was sprokiesagtig, met die kaggel wat die cabin heerlik verhit het.

Relaxing and peaceful.

The stay was magical, with the fireplace warming the cabin wonderfully.

Peaceful spot in the forest.

We enjoyed a lovely stopover at the Cabins. Our cabin was well equipped and cozy - we made good use of the fireplace (in January!). The biggest difficulty was negotiating the slippery boardwalks and stairs (it had been raining), and I struggled to adjust the shower mixer to somewhere between scalding and freezing. Definitely worth another visit.

Lekker gestap en goed uitgerus. Vat warm klere al is dit somer.

Die akkommodasie is goed uitgelee wat mens die gevoel gee dat jy in 'n woud is. Privaat en stil.

Lekker rustig.

Was baie lekker gewees. Vat dalk net 'n baadjie saam, dit was baie koud gewees. En die fire fly se warm kombers het nie gewerk nie.

Nice and quiet.

It was very nice. Maybe just take a jacket with you, it was very cold. And the firefly's warm blanket didn't work.

Quiet, relaxing and out of this world.

Driving into Hogsback is like stepping into a new world. Although we only stayed 1 night at the cabins, my fiancé and I will never forget how amazed we were to experience such a unique part of this country. The cabins were cozy, peaceful and relaxing. We really enjoyed the fireplace, the misty weather, the sounds of all the different animals around us and although we had an issue with our geyser initially, they sorted this out for us in no time. They will definitely be seeing us again the next time we pass through.

It was nice, very cosy and homely, which made the stay extra special.

The WiFi signal was bad; we had to buy our own data. For future investment, maybe the cabins could add a small TV or even a radio player.

Our family of 8 adults loved every moment. Clean and fresh with friendly hosts.

Rooms were clean and comfy. Beds were amazing with a hot under-blanket. The communal braai area was great for our whole family to spend time together. The lawn was perfect for our outdoor games. The location allowed us to cycle and run up the pass and easily pop down into the village for other activities.

Rustig en goed geleë vir 'n romantiese wegbreek.

Heerlike verblyf, alles is beskikbaar. Daar kort net blindings op al die vensters. Vanaf die 1 chalet kyk jy op die ander chalet se bed, so nie regtig privaatheid nie.

Romantic getaway for two.

Fantastic stay at The Cabins Hogsback. Perfect getaway for you and your partner. The weather was extremely misty which made the cabin even more cosy being in the middle of the woods/forest. Fantastic view from our balcony. Justin was extremely helpful, takes pride in his accommodation & strives to give his customers fantastic service. Thank you Justin for being such a great host.

Die Cabins is redelik primitief, maar die omgewing is asemrowend.

Die Cabins is absoluut ideaal vir backpackers en stappers. Ek sal dit nie aanbeveel vir mense wat nie stappers is en langer wil bly nie. Die omgewing en staproetes is pragtig.
