Hogsback Arminel Hotel, hotel in Hogsback

Located in Hogsback on the Eastern Cape of South Africa, this thatched-roof hotel offers rooms or self-catering cottages surrounded by native forest.

What a lovely venue,and loved the house,the front door sticks a lot ,however it is clear that the maintainance that is starting is much needed(grass around house,eg) We had a dinner,the side dishes and salads were nice,but wow wow wow the beefstew was not edible,besides the "roast"potato was n 1cm piece in the sause,the meat was only chunks of fat and bone,and the total of meat was 1 tablespoon.The chef needs to know that although the taste was ok,a very expensive meal if without a reasanable amount of meat,something was really wrong with her choice of meat cut. Besides that all was pleasant

Away with the Fairies, hotel in Hogsback

Set in Hogsback, 3.8 km from Eco Shrine, Away with the Fairies offers accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a shared lounge and a restaurant.

The stay is lovely, the rooms are cozy, with the possibility to light your own fire to warm up in the evening! I did not expect the place to offer various food options as well, and it was delicious. The staff is lovely, very helpful and patient. There are several options to keep you busy around, between hiking and others and the cliff bath is a must-do!

    I liked the water flowing sound made by the Lake at the back of our room,the place is basically a nature resort thee best place to visit if you're seeking to regroup and find inner peace while enjoying all the entertainment places around.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    The Historic Hogsback Inn is situated close to a number of restaurants, as well as the Spar mini - market making it very convenient for those who wish to dine out. The restaurant on the property covers a wide variety of meals too, so there is something for everyone, should you wish to dine closer to "home".

    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.
