Host review score
Angus and Laurent
Our very quiet 5-acre lush property is situated in a mountainous rural area among exotic and indigenous forests, plants and flowers with a view on to the 3 Hogsback mountains.
Angus and Laurent love helping people to see Hogsback's amazing walks and places of interest. They love hiking and offer cooking classes at their on-site restaurant.
Guests can go on beautiful hikes (for all fitness levels) through the indigenous forests, rivers, waterfalls and up mountains, or can just relax amongst nature and read a book.
