A clip of an affordable holiday home in Montagu, a small town outside of Cape Town, had some people in awe of the price, while others were sceptical about the area.
James and Kirsty Hughes, the TikTok account holders of @cabin_fever_cpt, posted a short video showing a bird's-eye view of HIDE | MONTAGU.
Situated on the Western Cape's famous and scenic Route 62, the hidden gem sleeps four people and boasts king-size beds, ensuite bathrooms, a splash pool, an inside fireplace, and more amenities.
According to @cabin_fever_cpt, it costs R850 per person per night.

TikTokkers have mixed reviews about the hidden gem
While R850 per person per night was an affordable price for some, most people shared their concern over the cabin nestled in the bushes.
@umenzii_creations shared her disbelief:
"The price does not match. It's too good to be true."
@raine604 added in the comment section:
"Horror movies are fun to watch until they prevent you from enjoying a beautiful place like this."

"But guys, what if something goes wrong and you’re in the mountains in the middle of nowhere?"
A conflicted @pelmrosejames shared:
"It's nice but I'm scared of wrong turns."

HIDE | MONTAGU ensures its premises are safe
Delamaine du Toit, who does marketing for HIDE | MONTAGU, states there is nothing "particularly dangerous" about the location. She adds:
"It is an eco-reserve and not a nature reserve where wild animals roam. The eco-reserve is on a working farm in Montagu. I suppose any animal can be dangerous, and can be found anywhere, but nothing you won't find in the town of Montagu or any town for that matter."
When Briefly News asked Delamaine what the company does to ensure its customers' safety from outside elements, the marketing expert shared:
"We are situated in a private eco-reserve with eight other homes, 24-hour armed patrol vehicles on our and surrounding farms, together with CCTV on the outskirts of the cabin and entrances to the farm."
