75 guests' feedbackLovely place, it's the second time we've visited Green Hills. Quiet and the jacuzzi keeps the kids busy, so mom and dad as well as the kids are satisfied.
Had a wonderful stay. Plenty of open space for kids to run around, with daily visits from deer. The jacuzzi was on and wood stacked when we arrived, which was a nice touch.
What a piece of gem! Safe, tidy, private and equipped with everything you need. Would definitely recommend!
It was the most relaxing and stunning place. Seeing the deer walking so close by while looking out at the amazing view was fantastic. The beds were so comfortable and the space was very well done.
This was an excellent choice for accommodation within the Garden Route. Our cottage was very well equipped with everything we needed and was extremely close to several major attractions, as well as restaurants and shops. Definitely somewhere we would stay again.
Green Hills Forest Lodge is easily accessible from the N2, also with motorcycles. Sue was constantly in contact and very accommodating as we arrived late. They had the jacuzzi going for us, and it was such a nice way to relax after our trip. Both the units we booked were clean and neat with everything you might need. We only stayed one night, but would easily have stayed longer. I can highly recommend Green Hills Forest Lodge.
Excellent place to stay! Jacuzzi with "donkey" for extra heat to enjoy as well as braai facilities. They also have a generator that keeps lights and roof fan on during stage 6 loadshedding! was a really awesome hostess!
Terribly nice, just too little wood for a visit.
Very comfortable accommodation, though quite small. The dining area is outside with limited seating indoors, so when it was raining we were not able to eat outside. Otherwise, it suited our needs.
We have stayed here a few times and as always the facilities are neat and meet our needs. The owner is very helpful and friendly.
The facilities were not worth the price charged. Better options available at a lower cost.
The unit was not clean and had a mouldy smell to it. The linen and bedding were very old and not clean. Also, the curtains are not conducive to sleep, and the unit becomes light at 4:10. There is also no bathroom upstairs, and walking down the steep stairs at night was dangerous.
We had a truly lovely time. Everything about our stay was so enjoyable and didn't want for anything at all. The hot Jacuzzi in the cold was the absolute highlight of our stay.
The accommodation is very centrally located, there is a superette that is very well equipped, 2 km on the N2. You can also have a very affordable breakfast there. There are also some places to visit in the vicinity for day trips.
The cabin we stayed in was exactly what you need to relax. White-tailed deer come to greet you in the morning and the lush green nature creates the right feeling of switching off and resting.
Awesome weather. Comfortable stay. Deer that come for their morning and evening apples, strawberries and grapes. An absolute relaxation destination.
We loved our stay at Green Hills. Sue and Dean were great and provided great support during our stay. Well-equipped accommodation with a great outside area and of course a jacuzzi. We will definitely be back.
Everything was just so cutely equipped, we stayed in unit with Jacuzzi would go back anytime. Clean, neat, breathtaking natural beauty. Owners are helpful and friendly. Everything just beautiful.
Second time visiting and will definitely be back.
Very nice stay. Enjoyed the walking path through the forest. The little deer that came out of the forest surprised the children. They have generators for when it is load shedding. This is a huge advantage.
Friendly host. A clean and peaceful place. WiFi and Netflix with excellent connectivity.
This accommodation is perfectly located along the East Coast- with a luscious green forest within the accommodation. The lodge was as neat as a pin and all the essential necessities were available, which made for a comfortable stay. They used a generator during load shedding for the lights, which was greatly appreciated.
See stars.
Accommodation is well equipped and very tidy. Although located next to the N2, we got the "forest feel" that the name lives up to. The reception was also friendly.
Very nice and quiet, if you love nature it's definitely a go.
Quiet, beautiful and relaxing in the jacuzzi in unit 4. Friendly service by Sue. We will definitely go again.
Would advise to add solid roof over outdoor seating area. Also decking from porch past jacuzzi to cabana area. Love feeding animals and traveling to local towns. Beautiful views.
Very neat, quiet and safe.
Unit 4 was very tidy, they put in effort to accommodate their guests with loadshedding so that the lights stay on. Green Hills creates the illusion that you are hidden in the woods even though you are relatively close to all the villages around. The owners were incredibly helpful with any queries and privacy was respected at all times.
With tourism suffering under the burden of restrictions, it is understandable that everything can no longer be maintained so perfectly.
Plek was amazing. Ons het elke aand jacuzzi en was heerlik. Die plek is lekker stil en Sue was amazing.
We only stayed 1 night but it was fantastic. We will definitely come back. Our 9 year old daughter couldn't get enough of the jaccuzi and outdoor life. Just what one needs to end the busy week.
Lovely place, secluded and everything you need.
Quiet, clean and peaceful, with a forest walk.
Nice place to relax.
What an amazing experience. Host was so nice. Accommodation beautiful. When we arrived the Jacuzzi was already running. The most beautiful hiking trail at the lodge. Definitely a must-do!
We had an amazing stay, and we will definitely be back!
Sue was ready and available whenever we needed something. So friendly and accommodating. It's perfect for a private getaway.
It was our honeymoon. Checked into 2 places for the week and Green Hills was the best. You feel at home there. It's quiet and peaceful, everything is convenient. Thank you very much Sue and Dean for your warm personality and kindness.
Clean and tidy, very nice and quiet and easy to find. Had a wonderful rest.
The unit was clean. The host made us feel welcome. We enjoyed our stay.
We thoroughly enjoyed the time! The unit is neat, clean and very well located. Can recommend it with great confidence.
Good location, stairs a bit dangerous for small children. Nature is beautiful.
We had a wonderful stay here and the 'loft' room was beautiful. The attention to detail was remarkable and the property area was very nice.
Sue is an absolute star. Had a great stay and intend on returning.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Green Hills. The cottage was lovely, clean and comfortable. It provided everything we needed. The farm is peaceful and quiet with the occasional visits from the resident bokkies. Our fur baby also loved her time. We will definitely be back. Thanks Sue!
Very nice stay. Everything that is needed. Calm and quiet in abundance, with nature and animals (goats) to complement it. Time was hopelessly short to experience everything. Will definitely stay there again in the future. Thanks to the owners.
Neat units and everything you need for self-catering.
Beautiful setting, very considerate owners, special mention of Olivia, the lady that serviced our rooms only when it suited us, delightful person. God willing we will be back next July to celebrate my next birthday. The entrance was a bit hard to find for an old toppie from the pre-GPS generation.
This is the second time we have stayed at the place and it meets our requirements.
The accommodation was neat and clean. We had a lovely quiet weekend there. And the Jacuzzi was the top point of all! An awesome weekend!
Lovely place to stay. Goats on the grounds were so beautiful. Location is perfect close to all major attractions. Will definitely stay here again.
Relaxed environment, suitable as an unwinding place.
Enjoyed the footpath. Would love to see the goats.
Cute units, well equipped The interesting walking path through native forest was something extra.
Peaceful and had a wonderful experience.
Had difficulty finding the place. There was a lovely view and a forest trail you could walk along as well as deer to see. We found the service could have been better when arriving.
A comfortable couch or chairs are missing, which makes it uncomfortable to be able to relax and enjoy a quiet time with a book. All seating is a picnic bench, old, upright chair and wooden bench.
Two things that might be added are a carport, and air conditioning. Furthermore, everything is perfect.
Sue is extremely helpful. The chalets are very neat and the location very nice for doing site seeing around the area.
It was beautiful and the goats really came to stand in front of the house and eat. Was delicious!
Accommodation was perfect for a stopover. Tea, coffee, milk and rusks were provided. Big plus thank you. Microwave (teenagers) and a stove/oven combo (heat-up fish and chips) was exactly what we needed.
Thank you very much. We will definitely see you again.
Fantastic accommodation, quiet, clean and tidy. Value for money. Buckeyes and walking in the forest were highlights. Sue was very friendly. Cottage has everything you need and fire pit was great for the cold nights.
Sue and family have created an idyllic haven here where you will feel quite remote from the N2. You can choose to walk in the forest or just sit and enjoy being away from the traffic - it’s close enough to the beaches to make this a holiday spot to spend a week at too!
We had a wonderful stay with the deer walking past right in front of our cottage door. We could feed them apples and carrots - it was amazing. The only problem that we had was that there wasn't hot water in the bathroom and it was a very cold morning to have to take a cold shower.
Nice central to everything. Within 10 km of all the sanctuaries and Plettenberg Bay. Many attractions around Green Hills Forest Lodge. Wildlife roam freely around you. Perfect place if you want to enjoy the scenery and silence as well as the beauty of the Plettenberg Bay and Knysna area. Thank you Sue for your hospitality.
Accommodation was clean and neat. Partitions outside offers privacy.
Dangerously steep stair case leading up to bedroom.
We were only at Green Hills for 3 nights but enjoyed every minute. The environment was very peaceful and the lodge was very well equipped. There was nothing that you would need that wasn't there. We were even privileged to meet one of the reindeer and feed him an apple. Thank you for a very enjoyable stay.
Host was very friendly and accommodating. Cottage is very comfortable and beautifully set out. The area is nice and peaceful, the perfect place to relax!
Very clean place with the nicest shower. The owner also went the extra mile (biscuits, coffee and tea and milk in the fridge and an ice tray full of ice). It was really a very nice evening and I will come again.
Quiet, tidy and everything you need for a nice break.
Highly recommended as center between The Crags, Nature's Valley and Tsitsikamma. Because its right next to the N2, its very accessible with everything you need for a self-catering getaway.
Apartment was very neat. Als was compact and collected! Very calm! Centrally located to be able to drive out to attractions every day! Many good memories taken with us!
