Moonshine on Whiskey Creek, hotel in The Crags

Set in a forest and nestled among the trees, Moonshine on Whiskey Creek offers self-catering accommodations in wooden cabins, just toff the N2 national road and 9.3 mi away from Plettenberg Bay.

We enjoyed our stay in Bushpig cabin. We used it as a base to go to Tsitsikamma National Park and Plettenberg Bay. It is close to a number of decent restaurants and to many attractions. Special shoutout to Enrico's Restaurant and Bread and Brew Farmstall which we found to be excellent. The cabin had a fan, which was needed as it was quite hot while we stayed there. Evenings cooled things off and I moved the fan so it would bring in outside air and lower the cabin temperature--not just provide air flow. The pool was large, had comfortable lounge chairs, and clean. We also loved the hike down to the waterfall--perhaps 20-30 minutes down and 30-40 back up. The waterfall is not really impressive, but the surrounding cliffs are and the pool at the bottom was good to swim in.

Colourful BnB, hotel in The Crags

- what a beautiful property! We loved every bit of the stay - especially the view over the beautiful nature! 1. Incredible sunrise in the morning (and general beautiful view) 2. Relaxing at the pool after or before spending the day out 3. Short drive (<5-10min) to birds eden / monkeyland / Tenikwa (we didn't try the forest spa - but also supposed to be good) and also one dinner place (peppermill); 30min drive to tsitsikamma national park, 35min to robberg hiking trail (highly recommended!!l 4. Gert-Jan and Ingrid were lovely hosts, they gave us very good recommendations, were very relaxed and we had some nice chats 5. We had some fresh eggs from their chickens (and we were also allowed to feed them - very funny to have them run towards you :)). 6. We used the washing machine and the hangers outside - very convenient (clothes were dry within 30min)

    A beautiful region, with excellent restaurants.

    A beautiful region, with excellent restaurants. The Grootrivier and (Western Cape part of) the Bloukrans River passes are exceptional, as is Nature's Valley. The Birds of Eden is THE world leading bird conservancy -- the biggest anywhere with free flying birds in a magnificent forest with a beautiful kloof, waterfall ,,, The nearby Monkeyland and Jukani conservancies are also probably the best in Africa. Thyme & Again restaurant is also a favourite.

    This is definitely not a family holiday spot!

    This is definitely not a family holiday spot! It could, at best, be a backpackers lodge. The water in the bathrooms was brownish, and although there were assurances that it was healthy, we were sceptical. The rooms were tiny and barely furnished. The kitchen is communal and almost 100 meters away from the rooms - very inconvenient for those rainy days! What about the toilet and bathroom outside the rooms! We had surely booked the wrong place, and stayed only for one night out of four.

    Its a wonderful place to stay, especially since it is 18kms...

    Its a wonderful place to stay, especially since it is 18kms from Plettenberg Bay, so its more serene than Plett over the height of summer. There is a lot to do in the vicinity. We loved our visits to the elephant sanctuary (an absolute must-do), the wolf sanctuary, Birds of Eden, Tenikwa (wildlife rehabilitation), Jukani (wildlife sanctuary, especially for Big Cats) and Monkeyland. There's a super water park (Adventureland) about 19kms away, with fabulous waterslides. We made the mistake of not booking restaurants for dinner in advance. Over late December / early January most places were fully booked, which really limited our options and we spent a lot of time calling around, which we could have avoided. I would scout the restaurants and book well in advance next time.

    Beautiful farm close to Plettenberg Bay! The rooms are nicely designed, super quite and have a great view on the almond fields. Derek and Davina were super welcoming, explained a lot about the farm activities and gave us the real South African experience by inviting us to a family Braai! Derek is a great cook and breakfast was amazing as well! We would definitely recommend staying here!

    We wanted a little escape weekend for my birthday and we got exactly that, out in nature. The accommodation was amazing, big spaces and well equipped for self catering. Ilze the host was just so lovely and helpful with information about the farm's surrounds for sight seeing and adventure.

    We were served a lovely healthy breakfast on the patio. The location was close to Plettenberg Bay and all the attractions like Birds of Eden and the Snake park were very close. Loved the peace and quite and beautiful garden and dam.
