Wonderful, tranquil. Just what we needed to recharge our internal batteries.

Lovely cosy setting with a fireplace, which was welcome due to the weather. Will visit again!

Was anders as die gewone baie lekker gebly weg van die stads geraas en gejaag.

Koue nat 8 dae het vir ons 'n White Christmas gegee sonder sneeu. Was iets anders as die gewone. Warm cosy kaggelvuur Kersfees. Rustig in die natuur.

Heerlike knus blyplek met binne kaggel in hierdie koue winter!

Hogsback het my siel gevoed! Die arboretum, die hoogste hoë bome!!! Die watervalle! Madonna en kind-waterval is van die mooiste watervalle wat ek al gesien het. Ons blyplek was heerlik ten spyte van ysige koue.

Absolutely fantastic and cozy stay!

Idyllic surroundings make you feel like you are alone in the most beautiful forest! We only stayed for one night and when we got there it was raining. We stayed in and made a fire in the fireplace. We enjoyed the beautiful surroundings with some great wine and played cards till late. It rained through the night but we could explore a bit in the morning. What a magical place, will definitely have to go back to explore more of the little town and surroundings. We went during the off-season and chose to stay in, but there are limited restaurants open during the off-season. We could not find a breakfast place on our way out around 9:30 am. Would love to do this during the busy season to be part of the adventure and magic that I can only imagine happens in this beautiful place!

Rustig en vreedsaam in die natuur.

Uitstekende gasvrou en baie hulpvaardig. Ons het haar pragtige, netjiese en keurige kothusi baie geniet. Haar mooi tuin met die padda- en voëlsang was voedsel vir die siel. Dit was lekker koud en nat en die kuier by die kaggel was heerlik.

Perfect place to reflect, meditate and recharge!

Suited us perfectly in that we wanted to do as little as possible for as long as possible. Literally to recharge for the second half of the year. Well appointed and comfortable unit, everything you require. Only downside would be that accessibility is a little 'rough' on ones vehicle. 4x4 recommended.

Het my verwagtinge oorskry.

Die verblyf en natuur was onverbeterlik. Die volgende kan aandag geniet: Die buite-braai kan vervang/opgradeer word. Die huidige braai is moeilik om in te braai en dateer al so bietjie. Verskaf 'n klein byl om die hout vir die kaggel/braai mee te kap. Die uitgebrande as/kole van die braai asb. op 'n ander plek uitgooi. Huidiglik word dit reg langs die braaiplek gegooi en dit breek af aan die pragtige natuurskoon.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Exceeded my expectations.

The accommodation and scenery was unbeatable. The following can be addressed: The outdoor braai can be replaced/upgraded. The current braai is difficult to braai and is ageing. Provide a small axe to cut the wood for the fireplace/braai. The burnt ash/coals of the braai can please be disposed of somewhere else. Currently it is thrown right next to the braai and it breaks down to the beautiful scenery.

Die rustigheid waar die natuur jou weereens die lewe laat waardeer.

Die gashere is wonderlik en ons is vriendelik ontvang by 'n netjiese en skoon eenheid, wat voldoen het aan al ons vereistes vir aangename verblyf. Die omgewing is stil en dit het gevoel of ons alleen is. Ons het baie lekker gekuier. Die kaggel en die bottel sjerrie was wonderlik. Ons sal dit vir enige iemand aanbeveel en wil self teruggaan as dit sneeu.

Pragtige omgewing en baie mooi en skoon woonstel.

Maple Grove is baie privaat geleë met natuurskoon om jou, ek dink net dat die toestand van die paaie in Hogsback is `n groot probleem, (gruis wat oor teer gegooi is) en stof was `n groot probleem aangesien trokke deur die dorp beweeg en baie stof veroorsaak. Dit gaan beslis toerisme negatief beïnvloed.

Beautiful surroundings and very nice and clean apartment.

Maple Grove is very privately located with scenery around you, I just think that the condition of the roads in Hogsback is a big problem, (gravel laid over tar) and dust was a big problem as trucks move through town and cause a lot of dust. This will definitely affect tourism negatively.

Maple Grove in Hogsback 's response

Thank you, Adriaan, for taking the time to review us. It is such a pity about our "hobbit" roads in Hogsback and as mentioned, we fall under Nkonkobe Municipality and nothing has been done on our roads for the year. I hope by the time you visit again there will be some improvement, but glad you enjoyed the rest of your stay.
Warm regards,
Lyndsay and Peter

Fantasties! Hartseer om te gaan!

Alles was prefek. Lyndsay was baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Die kothuis waar ons gebly het was pragtig, skoon en het alles gehad wat benodig word. Lyndsay gee vreeslik aandag aan detail en 'n mens kan nie anders as om welkom te voel nie.

Snoesig, huislik en uiters aangenaam.

Lieflike oopplan-opset in 'n pragtige omgewing. Warm en knus, maar ruim genoeg dat jy nie beknop sal voel nie. Vra maar net vooraf oor die roete tot daar, want al is daar 'n mooi teerpad daarheen, verkies Google Maps die 30 km grondpad (dis 'n rowwe bergpas grondpad). Die uitsig was wel asemrowend!

Cuddly, homely and extremely pleasant.

Lovely open plan setting in beautiful surroundings. Warm and cozy, but spacious enough that you won't feel cramped. Just ask beforehand about the route to get there, because even though there is a nice tarmac road to it, Google Maps prefers the 30 km dirt road (it's a rough mountain pass dirt road). The view was indeed breathtaking!

Ons het dit baie geniet, maar sal nie weer gaan nie.

Die pad na Maple Grove is nie van die beste nie. Ons was nog nooit in Hogsback nie en het nie besef dat dit meestal grondpad is nie. Dis regtig baie mooi daar en die plekkie het baie potensiaal. Ons sou dit egter bietjie skoner verkies het, maar dis dalk net ons. Hou in gedagte dat jy na die eerste krat hout gaan betaal daarvoor. (Ons het R50 vir 2 nagte se kaggel ekstra betaal). Die cottage staan onder 'n groot boom en dit gaan met baie harde geluide gepaard op die sinkdak. Ons hou van reën op 'n sinkdak, maar dit het ons altwee nagte gereeld wakker gemaak. Dit mag dalk 'n rukkie neem om aan sulke naggeluide gewoond te raak.

We enjoyed it very much but would not go again.

The road to Maple Grove is not the best. We had never been to Hogsback and didn't realize it was mostly dirt road. It's really very beautiful there and the place has a lot of potential. However, we would have preferred it a bit cleaner, but maybe that's just us. Keep in mind that you will pay for the first crate of wood. (We paid R50 extra for 2 nights' fireplace). The cottage stands under a large tree and this is accompanied by very loud noises on the tin roof. We like rain on a tin roof, but it woke us both nights often. It may take some time to get used to such night sounds.

Dear Jaco,

Thank you for your valued input in improving our service to you our guests.

Please note that the first crate of wood is free and you should not have paid for it. Thereafter it is R50 per bin, so if you only used one bin after that, then I am more than happy to refund you. Please send me your details and I will refund you immediately.

We pride ourselves in keeping our cottages clean and comfortable and I am so sorry that we did not live up to your standards. I do hope if you are in our neck of the woods again, you will consider staying at Maple Grove, and that you will leave with a happier experience.

'n Ongelooflike ondervinding reg in die natuur.

Ek gebruik nooit die term "wow" nie, ek gebruik ook nie "awesome" nie. Maar Maple Grove was "wow" en "awesome". Lyndsay en Peter het bietjie hulp van die natuur gekry met die ligging, maar die res het hulle self vermag. Hulle vriendelikheid en behulpsaamheid, sonder om oorboord te gaan, is prysenswaardig. Die wooneenheid, The Cabin,se uitleg en afronding is uitstekend en die Queen Anne stofie om die koue te verdryf net wat nodig is vir die koue aande. Die dek met die braai is 'n wenner en dan is daar nog onderdakparkering vir jou voertuig ook. Ek skryf hierdie resensie teen die agtergrond van ons jarelange ondervinding van selfsorg-eenhede, van studios tot tweeslaapkamers, van Paternoster tot Port Alfred, van die KZN Midlands tot Carnarvon en Clanwilliam, van die Waterberge tot Bredasdorp en Robertson. Die Cabin van Maple Grove is 'n wenner.

What a wonderful experience in nature.

I never say "wow" and I never say "awesome". But Maple Grove made me say "wow" and "awesome" a couple of times. Lyndsay and Peter got some help from mother nature with regard to the location, but the rest is all thanks to them. They are friendly and helpful without being overbearing and that is quite the achievement. We stayed in The Cabin and the layout and finish is excellent and the little Queen Anne stove was just what we needed to keep the cold at bay. The deck with the BBQ is great and they also have covered parking. I write this review because we have a lot of experience staying in self-catering places, from studios to two-bedroom units, from Paternoster tot Port Alfred, from the KZN Midlands to Carnarvon and Clanwilliam, and from the Waterberg to Bredasdorp and Robertson. Maple Grove's Cabin is awesome.

Maple Grove is 'n ervaring gevul met verrassings! Nie net is Hogsback 'n belewenis nie, maar Maple Grove is die ideale verblyf vanaf waar jy die pragtige dorpie en omgewing kan verken. Die "cabin" ontbreek niks en is toegerus om die wisselvallige klimaat te trotseer.

Dit was 'n heerlike stil plekkie om na terug te kom na 'n dag se stap.

Dit was 'n heerlike stil plekkie om na terug te kom na 'n dag se stap in die woude. Maple Grove is stil en rustig. Genoeg hout vir die kaggel word voorsien asook gerieflik melk in die yskas met aankoms. Ons het lekker gekuier, gebraai, gestap en ontspan by die Walkers. Dit was 'n goeie wegbreek. Wat in gedagte gehou moet word is die pad. As jy in die winter/reëntyd wil besoek aflê gaan jou motor redelik hoog van die grond af moet wees met die pad wat kan lelik raak op pad na Maple Grove. Die oorgrote meerderheid van Hogsback is ook grondpad.

It was a lovely quiet place to return to after a day's walking.

It was a lovely quiet little place to return to after a day of walking in the woods. Maple Grove is tranquil and peaceful. Enough wood for the fireplace is provided as well as milk in the fridge upon arrival. We had a wonderful visit, braaied, hiked and relaxed at the Walkers. It was a great getaway. All you have to keep in mind is the road. If you are visiting in the winter/rainy season, your vehicle needs to be rather high off the ground as the road can get rather ugly on the way to Maple Grove. The most of Hogsback is also dirt roads.

Uitstekende wegbreek en rustig.

Ons het net een nag oorgebly. Die Cottage is ideaal vir wittebroodpaartjies. Alles is daar en baie snoesige atmosfeer. Kaggel, sjerrie, stile.

Kan met geen twyfel graag aanbeveel word.

Die hut is gerieflik, groot en baie knus met 'n kaggel en groot dek om die boomryk tuin te bewonder. Ongelooflik lekker gebly en by die kaggel gekuier. Waarde vir geld.

Can be happily recommended without a doubt.

The cabin is comfortable, large and very cozy with a fireplace and large deck to admire the tree-rich garden. Unbelievably nice stay and hanging out by the fireplace. Value for money.

Only two nights, but it was unforgettable!

The cottage was like an Alpine chalet, it was very well appointed with everything you need and with lots of extras showing great pride in the chalet. Our hostess was Lindsay Walker and she went to a lot of trouble to make our stay so pleasant. Our stay was in autumn and the colours were amazing. Maple Grove is highly recommended.

Hogsback, wat 'n wonderlike ervaring !

Om Hogsback te besoek was nog altyd een van my "bucket list"-drome. Maple Grove het absoluut aan al ons verwagtinge voldoen: wondelike gashere, besonder goed toegeruste verblyf.

Truly a nice stay and experience

Fantastic accommodation with friendly people. Advise to future guests: use a higher vehicle to reach here, as most of the roads leading to Hogsback are in a terrible condition. However, it was a very good experience all round, if roads are not considered.

A very good option for a few days in Hogsback

Positives: very friendly & attentive (but not overbearing) hosts, fantastic welcoming attention to small details in the cottage (eg. flowers, rusks, muscadel, wood & fire ready to lights), very nice gardens & peaceful atmosphere. Amazing value for money & well designed accommodation. The Negatives: the cottage is starting to show just a little of its age & small maintenance needs are starting to surface. The 3 Jack Russell dogs kept us awake until 11pm barking one night while the owners were out - but I don't think this is usual. Maple Grove is just a little far from the main "centre" of Hogsback - but the price makes up for it.
