Granny Mouse House

Granny Mouse House is a great place to stay. The setting is beautiful and private. We stayed in a Rondavel which was very spacious and had a mini kitchen. The host was very pleasant and gave us plenty of space. Everything was very clean. Even with just starting to recover from the drought the grounds were beautiful. The pool looked inviting.|||| We stood outside one night and were in awe with all the stars. We walked to the arboretum and St. Patrick on the Hill from GMH. ||||The only negative we had was the road (R345) through the little village of Hogsback is in horrible shape.

Arrived in Hogsback with no accommodation booked, were referred to Ingrid at Granny Mouse by one of the locals.|Was a supper amazing stay had several nights of red wine and long chats (and laughs ) with our amazing host Ingrid, a wealth of information about the area and told us what was worth viewing in the area. Accommodation is beautiful and super clean. We were lucky enough to have a suit part to the main house, apparently one of the oldest in the area.|Ingrid garden is just on the next level, no words can describe , just go see for yourself it is like a walk through a private park, truly amazing for the gardener type person.||Will love to return for the flowering of the azaleas , apparently September ish,,,, and when you see the size of the established bushes one can only imagine how splendid it must be.||Granny Mouse House is just perfect||Gavin and Liza

The owner is terribly rude and should not handle customers at all. The room was dirty and the bed was extremely uncomfortable, with springs digging into you. The furnishings were old rattan that was falling apart and the room looked as if it hadn't been cleaned in ages. We were given a heater but told not to use it because it costs a lot to run. The TV had one channel and it didn't even come in all the way clear. We had two little dogs with us, and Ingrid told us horrific stories of how her dogs are planted in her garden-how it's full of dead animals. What person would want to sleep next to a pet cemetery??? The amount of money this place costs is a surf for what you get. I found much better places to stay in Hogsback that are much nicer and much more affordable. Highly recommend to avoid this one!

I stayed in the Rondavel Cottage at Granny Mouse House recently and what a wonderful experience! Excellently equipped and cosy, comfortable cottage, friendly and efficient service (thank you Ingrid) and the most stunning garden. I loved the privacy and tranquility of the setting. In my opinion: excellent value for money. I will definitely visit again.

This was our second stay at Granny Mouse House - my wife and I stayed there three years ago. We love Hogsback and we chose to return to Granny House Mouse. We stayed in the self-catering unit with a private garden. The unit is very comfortable and is clean (serviced daily). Ingrid, the owner, was amazing. The gas geyser broke the day before Christmas and she managed to replace it the day after Christmas! Ingrid made another shower available to us in the mean time. ||Water was a serious problem and the local dam was completely empty. Somehow, Ingrid managed to supply us with water which was a real challenge.||When we visit Hogsback again, we will look forward to staying at Granny Mouse House again.

Spent two wonderful nights in the self-catering Rondavel/Bungalow in December 2017. The room and bathroom were spotlessly clean. The bed was comfortable and the shower was amazing. There is a verandah that looks onto a lovely swimming pool and immaculate gardens. We didn't really make use of the kitchen facilities but all the basics were there. We had surprisingly chilly weather when we were there but the room was sufficiently warm with a heater and an electric blanket. Spectacular view of the stars at night! Don't hesitate to spend some time chatting with the owner - she's hilarious and fascinating! All in all, great accommodation in a beautiful setting!

We were concerned about the varied reviews but decided to stay here, as The Edge was booked. This was very nice, quiet, and secure. The breakfast was full English cooked to order, and was good. Bed, shower were also fine. The owner, Ingrid, lived her entire life in South Africa and has seen it all. She’s a character. We enjoyed it.

My wife and I spent 5 very enjoyable days at Granny Mouse House . Our room was clean, was serviced daily and we found the mattress perfectly comfortable. The breakfasts were excellent! We found the owner approachable, friendly and extremely helpful. We loved Hogsback and we will have no hesitation in staying at Granny Mouse House when we visit Hogsback again!
