The Edge Mountain Retreat is located in Hogsback. From the edge of the cliff, which runs along the side of the property, there are spectacular views of the surrounding mountains and a deep gorge, with beautiful, unspoilt indigenous Afromontane forest, often showing fascinating swirling mists and cloud formations.

This open-plan cottage can accommodate 2 adults and 2 children and comprises a sleeping area, a lounge, and a kitchen. The sleeping area is furnished with a queen-size bed and a child-only bunk bed. The bathroom is fitted with a shower, toilet, and washbasin. The kitchen is equipped with a 2-plate stove and mini-oven, a 1-plate gas stove, a microwave, a fridge-freezer, tea- and coffee-making facilities, and cutlery and crockery. The lounge is furnished with a lounge suite, a coffee table, and a fireplace, and the dining area is suitable for 4 guests. Guests have access to their own verandah with a built-in braai and a picnic table.

The Edge Mountain Retreat offers a wide range of accommodation options for individuals, families, or groups, including self-catering cottages and bed and breakfast rooms. Some are perched on the edge of a cliff, others in a peaceful 15-acre garden setting. Each has its own special character.

All guests staying at The Edge Mountain Retreat can make use of the on-site Restaurant at The Edge, which offers breakfast, light lunches, and dinners with excellent wines to match. The Edge’s Restaurant has a comfortable, informal bar and dining area where guests can read a book, play a game of cards, or play chess.

All facilities are furnished with character and in a style of understated quality. The Chartres-designed Labyrinth in the garden is definitely worth exploring.
