Lekker verblyf in Hogsback.

Netjies en skoon, goeie beddens en beddegoed. Die huis is mooi gemeubileer en het alles wat 'n mens sal nodig kry.

Peaceful and relaxing getaway.

Our hosts were amazing. They made sure we were comfortable and gave us useful information about Hogsback. The cottage had everything we needed, which made for a pleasant and enjoyable stay.

Most enjoyable stay.

Loved the decor, minimalist in that there was no clutter but roomy enough for the 3 of us under wet and cold conditions. Beds were super comfortable and indoor fireplace great for heating the apartment at night. Undercover braai area was a plus.

Enchanting stay at The Manna Cottages: Scenic bliss, perfect accommodation.

Our recent stay at The Manna Cottages in Hogsback was nothing short of enchanting. Nestled amidst breathtaking scenery, this place is an absolute gem for anyone visiting Hogsback. The cottages themselves were a delight – perfectly blending comfort with the rustic charm that Hogsback is known for. The scenery around the property was simply stunning, making each moment there feel like a picturesque escape. What truly elevated our experience was the owner of The Manna Cottages. His warm welcome and genuine friendliness made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. His hospitality was exceptional, and his knowledge of the area added depth to our stay, offering valuable insights into making the most of our time in Hogsback. We wholeheartedly recommend The Manna Cottages to anyone seeking a serene and delightful stay in Hogsback. The combination of beautiful surroundings, impeccable accommodation, and outstanding hospitality made our time here truly unforgettable. We can't wait to return to this little piece of paradise!

Kom ervaar stilte en skoonheid in die natuur.

Voortgaande ontwikkelings is hier aan die gang wat die volle potensiaal van hierdie gastehuis vorentoe sal ontsluit. Ons gasvrou was baie behulpsaam om ons behoeftes aan te spreek. Indien jy van mooi beboste areas hou, is hierdie die plek vir jou. Die gastehuis is mooi en smaakvol ingerig met die spoggerigste meubels. Daar was meer as genoeg hout beskikbaar om mee te braai en 'n kaggel aan te steek.

Come and experience silence and beauty in nature.

Further developments are underway here which will unlock the full potential of this guest house going forward. Our hostess was very helpful in addressing our needs. If you like nice wooded areas, this is the place for you. The guest house is beautifully and tastefully furnished with the most luxurious furniture. There was more than enough wood available for barbecuing and lighting a fireplace.

Baie potensiaal, kort net afronding.

The Manna Cottages is uiters gemaklik en is toegerus met die meeste dinge wat nodig is vir 'n lekker tydjie in Hogsback. Janique het ons baie vriendelik verwelkom en als gewys en verduidelik wat nodig was om te weet op die perseel. Sy was baie behulpsaam en het gereeld boodskappe gestuur om te loer of als nog reg is. Die cottages is naby aan die dorpie, op pad na "The Edge" toe en die pad daarheen is heel goed vir enige voertuig. Die hoofhuis is goed toegerus en baie gemaklik, met 'n pool tafel en opvoubare tafeltennis-stel om jouself mee te vermaak. Die uitsig is asemrowend. Die kamers en badkamers is almal gemaklik en goed toegerus. Daar is vele kaggels om 'n warm vuurtjie te stook om die koue te beheer. 'n Paar punte om op te let vir verbetering: 1. Daar is nie 'n braairooster en driehoek of bakstene by die groot huis se braaiplek nie. 2. Die kombuis se opwasbakke is nie in die kombuis nie, maar buite, met geen pakplek vir vuil skottelgoed nie. 3. Daar is 'n skottelgoedwasser op die perseel, maar dis nie gekoppel nie. 4. Die gasstoof plate werk fantasties, maar die elektriese oond werk nie. 5. Die gas Weber het nie 'n gasbottel gehad nie, ons het een van die cottages se bottel nader gebring om die Weber te gebruik, aangesien die oond buite werking was. 6. 'n Paar gasverwarmers sou help om die koue huis op te warm, indien vuur maak die hele dag lank nie moontlik is nie. 7. Die hoofslaapkamer se bed het nie 'n laken gehad nie, slegs 'n matrasbesermer. Indien die bogenoemde punte aangespreek kan word, sal The Manna Cottages dié plek wees om te bly in Hogsback!

Lots of potential, just needs finishing.

The Manna Cottages are extremely comfortable and are equipped with most things needed for a good time in Hogsback. Janique welcomed us very kindly and showed and explained everything we needed to know on the premises. She was very helpful and often sent messages to see if everything was still okay. The cottages are close to the village, on the way to "The Edge" and the road there is very good for any vehicle. The main house is well equipped and very comfortable, with a pool table and folding table tennis set to entertain yourself with. The view is breathtaking. The rooms and bathrooms are all comfortable and well equipped. There are many fireplaces to light a warm fire to control the cold. A few points to note for improvement: 1. There is no barbecue grill and triangle or bricks at the big house's barbecue area. 2. The kitchen sinks are not in the kitchen, but outside, with no storage space for dirty dishes. 3. There is a dishwasher on the premises, but it is not connected. 4. The gas stove plates work fantastically, but the electric oven does not. 5. The gas Weber did not have a gas bottle, we brought one of the cottages bottle closer to use the Weber, as the oven was out of order. 6. A few gas heaters would help to warm up the cold house, if making a fire all day long is not possible. 7. The master bedroom's bed did not have a sheet, only a mattress protector. If the above points can be addressed, The Manna Cottages will be the place to stay in Hogsback!

Nog 'n aangename kuier in Hogsback.

Baie ruim en netjies met 'n kaggel. Baie goeie potensiaal om nog verder te ontwikkel.

Lekker gekuier, 'n moet vir natuurliefhebbers.

Het op die ou einde gebly in Butterfly Cottage. The hosts were staatmakers. Niks was te veel gevra. Daar is gereeld ingeloer om seker te maak alles was in orde. Klein dingetjies soos ekstra komberse sou waardeer gewees het.

Have a great time, a must for nature lovers.

Ended up staying in Butterfly Cottage. The hosts were stalwarts. Nothing was too much to ask. Checked in regularly to make sure everything was in order. Little things like extra blankets would have been appreciated.

Rustig.

Lekker gebly, maar daar kort 'n paar 'finer touches' om dit beter te maak, soos 'n bietjie koffie/tee geriewe.

Restful.

Nice stay, but it needs a few 'finer touches' to make it better, like some coffee/tea facilities.

It was ok but not great.

We were very inconvenienced. At last minute, we were told by the owner/manager that the cottage we initially booked is not available, and we were redirected to another smaller one. When we got there, it was ok, but the next day there was no hot water.
