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.
Excellent location right on the riverfront, close to all amenities. Beautiful gardens and well kept swimming pool. Loved our recently renovated large room, a suite with an open veranda facing the river. Comfortable beds, electric blankets. Enjoyed the warm fire seated on the comfortable sofa. Stunning scenery and bird life right on our doorstep. Friendly, super efficient, attentive staff. Delicious breakfast. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the inn and our time in Hogsback. Waterfalls within easy walking distance of the Inn.
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.
We loved our stay - the hosts were amazing and so friendly.
The facilities were great, the kitchen more than adequate for the guests, just maybe an extra fridge needed when all the teepee's are booked.
Great base station to explore Hogsback completely, we did everything we could in 3 days, but so much more to explore.
The bed is huge, but maybe a little hard for my liking, slightly softer would be great, but the teepee is indeed Magical.
1. It is far from the maddening crowd, yet only 200m from the Main Rd
2. The rooms are spacious, comfortable and have quality hotel linen
3. The entire Cottage feels lived in, very homey, & with plenty kitchen utensils/crockery/cutlery
4. The serene garden & immaculate lawn at the front is so lovely…
5. Sally the dog & the others are visitor-friendly
6. Spring water flows from the taps…the simple joys of living in the mountains !
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.
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.
Amazing views of the mountain, super friendly hosts, very clean stone "cottage", with fireplaces, a full kitchen and full DSTV. Absolutely safe, with gorgeous walks on the property, and very central to coffee shops/ restaurants etc. The best accommodation you'll find in Hogsback!
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.
It was my first time in Hogsback and it was myself and my husband's anniversary. The staff at Kings Lodge made our stay so special. The most incredible staff I have ever come across. Definitely coming back again with my family. Honestly I can't recommend Kings Lodge enough.
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!
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!
The location is perfect whilst being surrounded by surreal trees and friendly staff who are extremely helpful. Rustic yet cozy feels in the self catering cottages accompanied by warming fireplaces.
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.
The person at the reception desk was friendly and informative and booking in was easy. The location was perfectly situated overlooking the Hogsback forest.
