Finally managed a get away to Forest Edge. It has been on my bucket list since four years ago. Planned it for our wedding anniversary in June but decided to go earlier. Totally enjoyed our stay at Forest Edge. So tranquil and the forest trails close by are amazing. Highly recommend. Will definitely try and return again some day.

We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage and it's location is perfect for the excursions we wanted to do. The only problem we had was the mattress which was not comfortable at all, so much so that my husband had to sleep in the 2nd room, because he found it too uncomfortable. He complained, they changed the matress for us, which was a great gesture, but the second matress was lumpy and again he slept on a single bed in the spare room. This was not acceptable to us as we were celebrating our wedding anniversary.

We were a group of cyclists on a tour. The chalets were clean and organised. We were very comfortable and everything was available for our self catering needs. The staff and management were friendly and efficient. We really enjoyed our time there. Easily recommendable.

This is the perfect spot for trips to Knysna, the surrounding areas and the forest for forest walks. The site itself has a small pool and some recreational facilities for children. Each cottage faces the forest edge and affords privacy from the others. The cottage had everything we needed. We liked the outdoor shower. The stoep and shade was delightful while looking towards the forest and doing the bbq.

Beautiful place and a beautiful forest. We would barbecue/braai, then eat in the green garden, with just lamplight, watching the stars. Everything we needed was there, including appliances, dishes, utensils, indoor dining, outdoor garden table, firepit, a weber type grill. Can't find faults, except that the house we stayed in does get a bit hot during the day.

Forest Edge provided a wonderful place for us to relax and experience Christmas in the Knysna Forest. We explored a number of activities around Knysna, but the managers gave us even more spectacular suggestions - Jubilee Creek and Totties market on a Sunday, the walks around the Forest, fireflies at night and the calls of the loerie. It was a wonderful stay!!!

The hosts were incredibly kind and willing to accommodate us. The area was quiet and surrounded by nature. You fall asleep to the sound of frogs croaking in the distance and wake up to bird-song. The cabin is very clean and well taken care of and had everything we needed. We ordered the extra breakfast, and it was enough food to last us our whole stay! I couldn't be happier. If we ever visit Knysna again, there is no other place we would rather stay. It was truly a magical, rejuvenating experience.
