Something to be considered is privacy. Between the units maybe build a braai for each unit. It will give a bit of privacy. Also a little roof. It was raining so hard and a " afdak" would have been nice to shelter from the rain.

Loved the views. Host was very friendly and made us feel welcome. Everything ws very clean and the bed comfy. Security is excellent. The ducks are a treat. Although it was raining and we couldn't walk around a lot we could see all the protea's and other plants. Loved that it had name boards to indentify. Gardens and lawns are beauriful. So neat.

We weren’t there long. Our friend who was staying in the room next to ours collected the keys. Place was clean, neat and comfortable. We went for a run and accidentally ended up on a neighbour’s property. After a short, very polite discussion we continued with our run. Farm is amazing with some awesome views along the way. Enjoyed having a coffee outside our rooms overlooking the pond. Would definitely come back.

There was only 1 bedside table on the one side of the double bed so I was putting things on the floor but not a biggie really as it was only 1 night.

Location was perfect for our wedding event at a farm close by. Very happy that the unit was very hygienic with clean sheets. It was also very spacious with pretty views over the valley. My daughter went for a run on the farm which was very scenic.

Absolutely nothing to dislike

Our stay at Inn on Highlands exceeded all expectations! Nestled amidst peaceful apple orchards, the tranquility of nature made for a truly relaxing getaway. Every detail, from the thoughtful decor to the small finishing touches, was carefully considered—no stone left unturned. We would absolutely return and highly recommend this hidden gem!

Seamless check in process. Malindi waited to welcome us after 8pm and took additional time to advise us on what activities to partake in over the course of our stay in the area. The accommodation was clean and resembled the advertised pictures to the t. The setting was tranquil and the perfect place to unwind. Overall an awesome experience

The walls between the rooms/cottages are thin and we could hear the neighbours.

A very pretty place to stay. Make sure to bring food/drinks along as the closest shop is a bit of a drive away and has limited hours.

If I had to nitpick, I’d suggest adding extra plug points by the bed for convenience. (Two point plug) I brought my own, so it did not bother me. As a solo traveler, the single bedlamp was fine, but for couples, two lamps with stronger light would be great for nighttime reading. While the units are quiet and the neighbors are respectful, I would have preferred a bit more privacy on the deck and braai area. Next time, I’d consider booking a family unit that feels more secluded. Overall, it’s still a tranquil escape with warm, welcoming staff and a serene atmosphere—a true hidden gem.

The Inn on Highlands is a peaceful retreat situated on a dam and surrounded by apple orchards, offering stunning views and a sense of calm. Perfectly located to explore the Elgin Valley, with the Elgin Railway Market just a short drive away. The rooms are cozy, with an amazing bed and excellent shower pressure. The warm and welcoming staff add to the experience. Ideal for quiet escapes, scenic walks, or simply relaxing by the water—a true hidden gem.

Awesome stay, had a blast with kayaks and swimming etc. Bass fishing was pretty slow but still managed to catch 8 fish for the 2 days we stayed.

The lights in both bedrooms glowed all night with no way to turn them off.

The view, the hot tub and the quiet

There was a back feed on the light in the bedroom which was a bit frustrating but it was a minor issue than can easily be resolved.

Beautiful location. Clean and everything you need is there!!!

The only thing if booking Mr. Green, you can hear everything from the cottage next door.

Absolutely stunning location. The views truly are breathtaking. Malindi is great, she really took care of us. The property we booked has everything you need, it is more than comfortable and spacious. The outside deck / sitting / braai area is incredibly peaceful.
