Daneswold Manor House

Daneswold is the country end of Hogsback accommodation: a manor house and cottage on Holly Lane in the upper village, with gardens, a terrace and an outdoor fireplace, and a location score its guests rate a straight ten. The Booking.com listing titles it honestly — Daneswold Country Cottage and Manor House — because you’re booking a property with room to spread out, not a single unit.

The units

Two bookable spaces, per the listing:

  • Two-Bedroom Apartment — a full bed and two twins, with its own kitchen and bathroom; the whole-place-yours option for a family of four or two couples.
  • Four-Bedroom House — a king, two doubles and two twins: the big bookable space, suited to a large family or a group that wants one roof for a weekend.

Both come with free Wi-Fi, private on-site parking, barbecue facilities and that garden-and-terrace setting. The sheet’s count for the property comes to twelve beds across its units — enough that wedding parties and family reunions book it as a bloc; see the village self-catering list for similar group sizes.

Location

Holly Lane, upper Hogsback (GPS −32.5769, 26.9110) — quiet country air with the village a short drive down, and the mountain’s trails on your side of town.

Pets

Pets allowed per the village sheet — but the listing’s own house rules didn’t surface in our check, so make it an explicit question when you book rather than an assumption. If you need a guaranteed yes, the pet-friendly stays list is the safer start.
