Organic Origins

Loved our stay! Excellent hosts. Received a home cooked bread etc from the chef/host. Amazing!! Really cool waterfall and local trails through the forest. Highly recommended

What a wonderful, wonderful stay at Camphor Cottage. It is the perfect escape, surrounded by trees and the "background noise" of a waterfall. We would also highly recommend taking Jaco up on his offer to make dinner - organic, made from scratch and delicious. Our stay was cut short due to the Corona crises. However, the hosts were extremely understanding and accommodating. We left feeling restored but also inspired to always aspire to live more sustainable, intentional and organic. We can't wait to return.

We had an incredible weekend in this gorgeous cabin, located in a beautiful forest. Jaco and Dayle are amazing hosts. If you love the outdoors, adventure or a nice cosy weekend, I recommend this little piece of paradise.

The perfect getaway. A very stylish eco-friendly cabin hidden away in a forest with the sounds of a waterfall make it the perfect retreat from a busy lifestyle. Jaco and Dayle's breakfast is a sure treat and dinner is a MUST.

An exquisite and rustic cabin for a perfect quiet getaway. Hosts are helpful and kind.

Our stay with Dayle & Jaco was the best we had on our trip. We saw some amazing birds (including the rare Cape Parrot) just from the comfort of our private deck. Jaco's food and Dayle's massages were amazing. We hope to be back one day!

We really enjoyed our time staying at the perfectly designed eco cabin. Our hosts, warm and welcoming were so very kind to offer us a lovely breakfast. Fresh, home baked bread from Jaco and tangy, delicious jam and lemon curd from Dayle. The view from the deck is stunning with an array of bird life in the day and at night, you hear croaking frogs under bright stars. Thank you very much, we will definitely come back.

Blackwood cottage is a cozy and compact place to stay. The kitchenette is tiny, but well-organized and supplied with exactly the right dishes and tools. Dayle and Jaco have an excellent composting and recycling system -- we enjoyed talking with them about their methods for sustainable gardening and building on the property. Walking trails begin on the property to take you through the woods and rivers. A quiet and relaxing place to stay!

Organic Origins is characterized by its charm and uniqueness. From small details to the amazing view, this is a perfect romantic getaway spot. Finaly its worth mentioning that Dayles home made bread was delicious.

Not experienced a reception from a host like this before. Extraordinary. Would be happy to return and enjoy the relaxing environment and birdlife.

Trevor, Jeffreys Bay, South Africa: AirBnB Guest, Blackwood Cottage, December 2019

The cabin is located in a very private part of Hogsback and Jaco and Dayle's hospitality was outstanding. We had a fantastic time in the cabin and their dogs are very sweet and playful.

Andreas, Johannesburg, South Africa: AirBnB Guest, Camphor Cabin, December 2019

Very nice cabin and setting!

De Villiers, Randburg, South Africa: Airbnb Guest, Camphor Cabin, December 2019

This is the most beautiful place you can imagine! Not only the quietness, the surrounding, the view and great hosts, but also the breakfast, the (specially made for us) dinner and the cutest dogs! The view from the balcony is breathtaking, seeing the sunset and hearing the sound of some singing birds. This is our second time here and we will definitely come back very soon! We live in the city of Rotterdam (Netherlands) and this place is the perfect getaway from our life in the city. Thanks a lot for letting us stay at your place again and see you soon! X Shaun & Ellen
