EXPERIENCE TRANQUILITY, ROMANCE AND PRIVACY in NATURE at multi-award-winning, yet affordable self-catering cottages in Knysna Forest. Nature-lovers' retreat: birds, game, secluded rock pools, forest walks & biking trails. Sundowners with fireflies and cozy log-fires. Experience the Magic of the Forest....

Situated off the beaten track, Forest Edge quietly nestles in the expansive Millwood Indigenous Knysna Forest on the magnificent Garden Route in the Western Cape. Forest Edge offers a self-catering vacation haven for nature-loving families, stressed-out city-dwellers, adventurers & honeymooners.

Enjoy an emerald day on Forest walks, picnics or biking trails, horse riding nearby, canoe at the “Drift”, enjoy a massage in your cottage or in a nearby studio, laze in a hammock or at the beach, or on an adventure activity or trip to Knysna town (20 leisurely minutes away). After a refreshing hot-water outdoor shower or relaxing indoor bath, mellow out on the verandah with sundowners. Watch a bushbuck or baboon family drink at the dam. Light a braai (barbeque) under the stars to the chorus of frogs; flitting fireflies and evocative nightjars add to the enchantment. In winter, enjoy a book or movie in front of a cozy log-fire...

There are 5 fully equipped 2-bedroomed gold-mining style cottages, aptly named Firefly, Froggy Pond, Fieldmouse, FoxGlove and Fairy Den. Each cottage houses up to 5 persons and offers the following accommodation: verandah with table & chairs that overlooks the private barbeque area; a private outdoor hot water double-shower; hammock; an open plan lounge / dining / kitchen (Fridge with freezer, stove with oven plus extras like microwave & tv/dvd), Cozy fireplace; Main bedroom with Double bed, Second bedroom with 2 single beds (cot and extra mattress on request), Old-worlde Victorian bath and basin (toilet separate).
