A base in Knysna.

Multi-award-winning, affordable, private cottages on the edge of the ancient Knysna forest beckons. . . Whether active on a stunning forest hike or biking trail, having a picnic next to a secluded forest stream, swimming in magnificent rock pools, or simply lazing in a hammock by your fully equipped cottage, Forest Edge promises tranquillity and an aura of romance. There is also a lovely undercover deck overlooking a gorgeous pond where you can enjoy mouth-watering South African cuisine for breakfast or dinner and experience true Knysna Forest Hospitality. Spend the day rocking in a hammock on your ‘stoep', watching water lilies open to the sun while kingfishers dart in and out of the pond. Or put on your boots to tackle the Drupkelders hike and spend hours at the waterfall and swimming pools you'll discover in the forest.
