Beautiful, peaceful stay. We had a wonderful stay - everything is beautifully and functionally furnished. Being able to braai in the clouds while looking out over the mountains and forest was an experience. Thank you also for the host's help and communication during the Eskom problem over the weekend. Hopefully we will see you again soon.

Pragtige, rustige verblyf. Ons het heerlik gebly - alles is pragtig en funksioneel ingerig. Om te kan braai in die wolke terwyl ons oor die berge en woud uitkyk, was 'n belewenis. Dankie ook vir die gasheer se hulp en kommunikasie tydens die Eskom-probleem oor die naweek. Hopelik sien ons julle gou weer.

Value for money and more beautiful than beautiful. Incredibly beautiful place and surroundings. Lizzie and Andries are incredibly good and friendly people. It was so nice to meet them. Thanks again for everything. Breathtaking view. Heavenly experience with the fog and nature around you. Hogsback is a must!

Waarde vir geld en mooier as mooi. Ongelooflike mooi plek en omgewing. Lizzie en Andries is ongelooflike goeie en vriendelike mense. Was so lekker om hulle te ontmoet. Dankie nogmaals vir alles. Asemrowende uitsig. Hemelse ervaring met die mis en natuur om jou. Hogsback is 'n moet!

Beautiful, beautiful view, comfortable room, friendly. The accommodation was perfect, just what we needed. We took a quick weekend getaway for our 20th wedding anniversary and we were very happy with the accommodation. Everything we needed was there, and the hostess was incredibly friendly and helpful. They went out of their way to make us feel welcome and special. We will definitely be back, who knows maybe with the kids too. But our wedding anniversary was very special. The view from the room while enjoying your morning coffee/tea was breathtaking. The silence did our souls good, we didn't want to drive back home, it just went by too quickly.

Beeldskoon, pragtige uitsig, gemaklike kamer, vriendelik. Die verblyf was perfek, net wat ons nodig gehad het. Ons het 'n vinnige naweek wegbreek gevat vir ons 20ste huweliksherdenking en ons was baie gelukkig met die verblyf. Alles wat ons nodig gehad het, was daar, en die gasvrou was ongelooflik vriendelik en behulpsaam. Hulle het uit hul pad gegaan om ons welkom en spesiaal te laat voel. Ons sal definitief terug wees, wie weet dalk met die kinders ook. Maar ons huweliksherdenking was baie spesiaal. Die uitsig van die kamer terwyl jy jou oggend koffie/tee geniet, was asemrowend. Die stilte het ons siele goed gedoen, ons wou nie terugry huis toe nie, dit het net te vinnig verbygegaan.

Excellent views, beautifully tucked away on the edge of Hogsback. Excellent cottage stay. Beautiful views from the balcony. Get your walking legs ready, the driveway is quite steep but well worth it for such a beautiful view. Hosts were very helpful and went out of their way to make us comfortable and feel welcomed.

Extraordinarily styled romantic getaway. I spent three glorious days at Serendipity Self-catering in Hogsback. Waking up to views of a steep gorge clad in indigenous forest and sipping coffee on the outside wooden deck, breathing in the silence, is what staying here is all about. It is a once-in-a-lifetime destination worth saving for. I was equally impressed with the friendly, helpful and informative owner. Attention to detail and originality of the cottage is truly spectacular.

A great place to stay when going to Hogsback. We went there for relaxation and to visit the various waterfalls and trails. Serendipity certainly satisfied the relaxing part. Accommodation was clean with all the essentials. The view was great. Liz was welcoming and helpful.

Refreshing, life-changing. It was wonderful and refreshing to stay in the mountain among the tree- and bird-rich nature. The mountain and nature speak to your soul and refresh your soul. The host and hostess make you feel at home - part of the community and make you want to move to the beautiful place.

Verfrissend, lewensveranderend. Was heerlik en verfrissend om in die berg tussen die boom- en voëlryke natuur te bly. Die berg en natuur gesels met jou siel en verfris mens se siel. Die gasheer en gasvrou laat mens tuis voel - deel van die gemeenskap en maak mens lus om te verhuis na die pragtige plek.
