Now for November.....
☃️ Winter has retreated
Has pulled back her downy duvet.
In Hogsback there are now more balmy days than days that say brrrrr.....
And as the last weekend of Hogsback Open Gardens 🌺 fast approaches,
we look forward to a burst of summer colours.

At Daneswold Cottage - Hogsback we are still above the clouds.
Come and say hello to summer! 🌞

"A room with a view"
Daneswold Cottage
When you are nestled atop a mountain, like you are at Daneswold Cottage - Hogsback , with a surrounding landscape of such depth, beauty and interest, every window becomes a framed artwork.
And with Hogsback potential weather changes of four seasons in one day, these artworks are forever renewing themselves, moment by moment.....

A different perspective....
View from Daneswold Cottage - Hogsback towards the West and the setting sun, which, although not the big bucks mountain view, somehow still stops you in your tracks, making you breathe a bit deeper.
This is your home away from home.

This place Hogsback has something all its own, impossible to put into words.
Come and create your very own story.
We would love to meet you!

Oh! October!
Take the time for a flower🌷 or a friend💕
"...in a way, nobody sees a flower-really-it is so small-we haven't time, and to see takes time like to have a friend takes time"
Georgia O'Keeffe circa 1923

When guests arrive at Cottage - Hogsback they are struck by the view of limitless sky, mountains, forest, valley and beyond.
Only when they leave do they mention something else that had crept in while they were losing themselves in all this beauty and space.

Phones were left behind on the bedside table.
Cares got swept away by the crisp Hogsback mountain air.
Time stopped.
Time spent with parents, children, friends from 20 years ago, lover, dog, brother or sister.
Time to really SEE.

Rise with the sun this Spring Holiday!
Daneswold Cottage - Hogsback
There is so much to see and do this Heritage weekend and September holidays in Hogsback that it is almost possible to forget to stop and take a deep breath of the blossom laden air (and today, after 2 days of glorious, much-needed rain....the scent of damp earth).
Learn to throw pottery clay into recognisable shapes with Luyanda at Starways Arts
Have a spiritual experience with horses at Hogsback, River Running Horses for Healing .
Absail down a cliff or rent a bike to chase some adrenalin with Hogsback Adventures
Have a toe-curlingly-good fine dining experience at Touraco-Hogsback
Be transported to another realm with live music at Terra-Khaya & Amathole Horse Trails (in a venue that is out of this world!)
Visit Hogsback's awesome and intrepid market traders at the Saturday morning market at Kings Lodge Hotel, Hogsback
Test your quiz mettle at The Edge Mountain Retreat on Monday night. Also the only place where you can sample a pint of Hogsback's very own brew made by Stu from Hogsback Brewing Company

This is just the tip of the melting iceberg....so come rise and shine in Hogsback this September holiday!

Spring Beginnings
"Early morning at Daneswold"
There is the unmistakeable scent of something NEW in the air.
With the September school holidays only a stone's throw away as well as the 'grown-up no-work day' of Heritage Day on the 24th, it is a good time to plan that little treat you have been promising yourself.
To travel to a place where you know the mind's wintry cobwebs will be blown away and your heart can expand with deep, clean breaths and wonder.

Come visit us at Daneswold Cottage - Hogsback
