Situated at the end of Knysna’s indigenous forest, Forest Edge Cottages is a private, tranquil eco-friendly nature lover’s retreat.
Knysna, part of the Garden Route in the Western Cape, is known for its all-year-round warm climate, and makes it a perfect spot for runners, hikers, swimmers and birders.
Forest Edge offers five cottages, well-spaced for privacy, and a great place for honeymooners, romantic getaways, adventure seekers and families.
Breakfast and dinner are available to be enjoyed on the delightful Lily Pond Deck which stretches over the lily pond, but these must be arranged in advance.
Parking is secure and Wi-Fi is available in all cottages.

The cottages are comfortable and cosy and feature two bedrooms and a bathroom with a Victorian bath, and a hot water shower outside. The fully equipped kitchen and living area, with a fire place, are open plan and lead onto a veranda and garden with braai facilities and garden furniture.
Each cottage can accommodate up to five guests and includes a ceiling fan, hair dryer, TV, DVD player, and plenty of books. All luxury units have DSTV and 2 of the luxury units have an en-suite shower as well.
