The Magical Teepee Experience! AIR (3/4)

Come fill your soul and retreat back to simple life with a unique stay in one of our 4 beautifully hand-crafted Teepees - FIRE, WATER, AIR & EARTH. Relax and surrender to peace in a candle lit tent with the fire going at the foot of your bed. Whether you're here for a few days or a month, your stay is sure to reconnect you with the magic that surrounds us. Each Teepee has a PRIVATE BATHROOM, and access to the communal kitchen in the main house. Each teepee stands on a raised wooden deck and is equipped with an original Mexican Chiminea that provides an amazing atmosphere & plenty of warmth. Get snug in the king size bed or relax on a super comfy couch or armchairs while enjoying the fairy lights and candles that add extra Magic after the sun has set. Each Teepee has their own private bathroom facility, with a shower, toilet & basin, just a few meters down the path. Guests that feel inspired to cook a hearty meal can make use of the fully equipped Elements Kitchen just a short walk from the Teepees. The Kitchen is the only facility with electricity on the property. Feel like enjoying the elements and having a braai instead? Gather around any one of our awesome firepits (stocked with wood for your convenience) and enjoy the magic of the mountain! Each Teepee has a handheld solar-power battery that guests are responsible for charging during the day (laying it in the sun). The fairy lights in the Teepee & bathroom are powered by the battery. The battery also doubles as a nifty torch to light your way around the property at night. Bask in the glory of the sun on your deck and induldge in the peace and quiet of the nature that surrounds you. End your day around the firepit while gazing at millions of stars, and fall asleep to the crackling sounds of your chiminea and a last glimpse of the stars through the teepee's top flap. Our farm is located on 1.8 hectares of beautiful mountain land, between lush green trees and flowering bushes. We have loads of daily visitors, including the Cape Parrot, Knysna Lourie, Samango Monkeys, Chameleons and even roaming cows, who often invite themselves for a snooze on the lawn. The Magical Teepee Experience is located conveniently close to all Hogsback's main attractions, and within 2km's of Town Centre, the grocery store & several restaurants and markets.  We're the perfect spot to start your hike adventure from. There is a communal kitchen where in every Teepee has it's own cupboard with cutlery and dinnerware. The kitchen is equipped with a gas stove, fridge, microwave, toaster and kettle, and braai facilities are available outside. We, Payden & Elmé, will welcome you and give you a tour of the propert. We'll also be available during your stay if any problems arise or you want to purchase wood :) Hogsback is a small village in the Amathole Mountains (Eastern Cape, South Africa) with an atmosphere of pure fantasy. Its' magical forests, waterfalls and mountains are perfect for hiking, sight seeing, bird watching and is a botanists' playground! It’s said that the mystical forests described in J.R.R Tolkien’s famous trilogy, “The Lord of the Rings” was influenced by the Hogsback landscape as his son was part of the Royal Air Force in the region and sent Tolkien detailed sketches and descriptions of the Hogsback forests. Treat your tummy with delicious food at different little restaurants & quirky hotels, spoil a loved one (or yourself!) with unique hand-crafted items and feast your eyes on special attractions all the way from the beginning to end of the village. We'd recommend to come with your own car to Hogsback, there is no Public Transport. The closest major town to Hogsback is King Williams Town and nearest major cities with airports are East London and Port Elizabeth. During your stay we're happy to provide information about hikes or good walking routes & many other activities available in the area. There is no public transportation in Hogsback, guests have to travel with their own vehicle/ rental car. When driving, always plan your route and fuel consumption in advance, be prepared if credit card facilities are down and keep and pay special attention to speed limits/road signs. The Teepees are equipped with electricity :) As Hogsback gets really dark at night, it's a great idea to bring a headlamp for after sunset hours to find your way to your private bathroom easier. We provide a complimentary crate of wood for your chiminea, and refills can be purchased on the property :)
