"Absolute perfection. Attention to every detail in our little cottage from the sherry on arrival to the little things that most places overlook. What a wonderful hostess Lindsay was. The beauty of this place is mind blowing. My wife and I left relaxed and already planning our next visit. "

"Peace and tranquility, beautifully appointed, cosy and comfortable with thoughtful and charming hosts, what more could you ask for! Wish we could have stayed a bit longer."

"We had a wonderful weekend at Maple Grove. We stayed in the chalet. It was spacious and the electric blankets and fireplace a real treat in the cold evenings. Our hosts were very friendly and helpful - definitely coming back!"

"Pretty area.

We were in the cabin which had a double bed with elec blanket, plenty wall heaters, and a fireplace. Roomy, comfortable, neat and clean and all in working order. "

"Thanks Walkers for a wonderful stay at Maple Grove. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay on your property and it brought back many fond memories I had of Hogsback. Will recommend you with pleasure to any friends travelling your way. Thanks for the hospitality and especially to Nic who was a great host. We..."

Well equipped kitchen, clean and comfortable bed and overall great experience. Ps. Enjoyed the dogs company too:)"

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Maple Grove. We stayed in the Chalet. It is most probably one of the nicest places to stay at in Hogsback.
The kitchen is nice and big with a large dining room table that makes it very comfortable to cook and eat in on those cold nights. The braai facilities are also very nice and accommodating. There are two en suite bathrooms, one has a shower, the other has a bath. The friendly little jack rusells running around also makes it feel very homely."

"Such a lovely place! Would definitely recommend it!"

"Stayed at Maple Grove for 3 amazing nights, the place looks exactly like on the pics. Lots of personal touches like sherry to welcome you, some rusks for breakfast. Would absolutely stay there again."

"Awesome stay in one of my favorite villages in South Africa. Cottage was comfortable and well equipped - we had everything we could want to make our stay enjoyable.

"Awesome stay in one of my favorite villages in South Africa. Cottage was comfortable and well equipped - we had everything we could want to make our stay enjoyable. Peter was unobtrusive yet available should we have required his assistance. All round a great stay which I have already recommended to friends and family! "

"We stayed at Maple Grove for 3 nights and we had a fantastic time. Clean, quiet, peaceful, beautiful and everyone was super friendly. Thank you!"

"Perfect for what we needed. Very peaceful, tranquil and convenient accommodation. Ideal for a few nights in the Hogsback."

"Lovely, cosy and comfortable cottage. We stayed for 2 nights with our 3 children (youngest in camp cot). Nice welcome and delicious rusks!"

"Very comfortable and clean - generally very homely. Very hospitable owners. Has all necessary facilities."

"Thank you for a lovely stay. The Cottage was stunning and exceeded our expectations. The gorgeous surroundings made up for the cold, wet weather and relaxing in front of the fire was a treat. Thank you Peter, for making us feel at home."

"We recently spent three nights at Maple Grove and felt extremely comfortable in The Cottage. We truly felt as if we were at home. All the home necessities were there and the place's decor is cozy and warm with an African touch. We found everything we needed and our hosts were very friendly and helpful. Hogsback is a 'must do' on everyone's travel list and we strongly recommend Maple Grove as your 'home away from home' while in Hogsback."

"The cottage has a beautiful setting, is private and well equiped for a comfortable self catering stay.

Some of the roads in the area are quite bad. Ensure that your vehicle can go on the roads that you want to explore."

"The warm welcome we received from hosts Peter and Lynn was awesome. The surroundings and cabin was truly spectacular and this is the perfect get away from city life. We only spent the one evening but are already planning our next long weekend visit."

"Great place to stay! Wonderful service from before we got there [emailed] until we left. Upgraded to the bigger[empty] chalet on arrival. Great atmosphere and hospitality. Pity we couldn't stay any longer... Thanks a million."

"Fantastic, just what the doctor ordered..fresh air, friendly people, lovely walks, enough to do, wish I could stay longer."

"We had a great time at Maple Grove. While it was one of the coldest weekends, we managed just fine with a constant fire going and lots of blankets to keep us warm. The dŽcor is beautiful and all the 'little things' are thought of. We will be coming back for sure. Thank you very much!"

"Loveley! Thanx again Peter and Lindsey. We enjoyed the hospitality. The place is wounderful, just what one needs to regarge you batteries!"

"A beautifully decorated, neat, clean and quaint chalet with all modern conveniences and more! The hospitality of the Walkers was wonderful. We recommend Maple Grove to anyone looking for a relaxing holiday in Hogsback."

"When you like hiking and staying in a cosy cottage, Maple Grove is the place for you. We had great days there and were amazed by the unexpected rich flora in the area."

"Was a pleasure to stay at Maple Grove. We were treated excellently with great hospitality. Recommend Maple Grove to all those who just need to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Will definitely make a return trip there."

"A beautifully decorated, open plan cottage. It had everything that we needed and we appreciated the little touches like matches, candles and shampoo which we always forget, being available.

Also the complimentary home made kiwi jam. We were given our privacy but help was provded when our visitor's vehicle got stuck in a ditch! A most pleasurable stay. We definitely recommend Maple Grove. It is ideal for a couple or for a family."

I'd definitely recommend this place to anyone."

"Felt very welcomed from the time that we arrived. The host was incredibly friendly - So sweet and helpful. Our room was very clean and tidy. It's a homely place that allows you to enjoy the peace and quiet. The breakfast and service was good. I would definitely go back and recommend to others."

"It was a great stay, bedding and bed where very comfortable and cozy. Definitely staying again."

"We arrived at the venue after a very bad rain storm. We just got inside our room and couldn’t explore the scenery.

"We arrived at the venue after a very bad rain storm. We just got inside our room and couldn’t explore the scenery. We were left inside unable to go anywhere, but the owners were kind enough to serve us a well cooked meal. They were gracious, made us feel comfortable and most accommodating. The rooms was also well appointed and we were happy with our stay. After we checked out we were headed towards Kokstad and kindly the owners gave us useful information on how to get there with a short cut route from them. We were appreciative of the information and will definitely stay there again."

"The place is quiet and very private. The Host was welcoming. The Chapel is nearby and to just walk to the Chapel and admiring the scenery was beautiful. We really enjoyed our stay."

"Lovely environment with an exceptional clean cottage. Everything you need was there."

"The place was nice. The cottage itself was beautiful. I went with two friends of mine and we have thoroughly enjoyed it. It was like staying in a mini forest."

"We all had a great stay at the Maple Grove. We thoroughly enjoyed our time, the surroundings are really beautiful and make you feel relaxed. We were very happy with our stay and would definitely go back soon."

"Nestled in a beautiful part of Hogsback, this accommodation leaves nothing lacking. All creature comforts are provided for. Our only criticism was that we have stayed in many B & B's, both in SA & the UK, & we have never been asked to pay for the accommodation to be serviced."

"Very friendly and hospitable hosts. Chalet well provided for, little things like homemade rusks and fresh milk; flowers and chocolates on pillows to greet us.

We visited in winter and was very cold, but we had electric blankets, basket of logs for the fire and plenty of hot water, but be prepared for just how cold it can get, we weren't! The evenings we enjoyed snuggling up with a fire and homemade chilli sherry, very relaxing."

"From the moment our booking was electronically confirmed up to the moment we left we "Experienced that special feeling” encouraged and sustained by our Hosts
Why? Little things like ensuring that we have the correct directions, special arrangements regarding our sleeping arrangements , walking into a spotlessly clean and functional accommodation , using their internet facilities free of charge to attend to special business needs , taking us on a guided tour of the premises , checking if everything is to our satisfaction , giving us some shrubs to plant on leaving but the overall realisation that we are not just business for them but guests in the true sense of the word
Thank you Maple Grove for granting and allowing us to "Experience that special feeling”

"The quiet and peaceful location of Maple Grove resulted in a wonderful and relaxing breakaway. The facilities in The Chalet is perfect and everything was is good working order. We enjoyed sitting in front of the fireplace and we really were able to "recharge our batteries". I can recommend Maple Grove without a doubt. When we visit Hogsback again we will definitely book here again. "

"Nestled in the Hogsback mountains you will find a small, but quaint establishment called "Maple Grove" surrounded by the awesome forests and mountain views; one could not wish for a better place to stay and enjoy some family and relaxation time.

The cabin, although small, offers one a comfortable and cosy stay, equipped with all the necessary items to ensure one has everything on hand to cater for oneself in the time spent there.

Evenings spent braaing on the deck and gazing at the beautiful autumn colours surrounding you, and breathing in the crisp mountain air is amazing. The owners Peter and Lyndsay are very friendly and hospitable and do everything possible to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

On returning to the cabin in the evenings after a long day of hiking and exploring, one experiences the feeling that it is a little home away from home and you can kick back and relax while planning your next day’s activities.

Maple Grove truly is a little piece of heaven and is definitely good for one's soul, nothing like experiencing nature and feeling happy and content in knowing that you are both welcome and cared for!!

Thank you Peter and Lyndsay, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely return in the near future.
