A place of peace and quiet in the most beautiful scenery.
We are back after 20 years and the place is more beautiful than ever. Well maintained with nice extensions and excellent personal service. This is an any time of the year getaway. We love winter here, because the houses are wonderfully cosy. The fireplace is always a winner.

Beautiful scenery, peace and quiet in a lovely little house with everything one needs.
If you like peace and quiet, away from the city, Forest Edge is for you. Apart from the distant sounds of a shooting range on one of the nearby farms on the weekends or a tractor during the week, you can truly relax and appreciate nature from the privacy of your own hammock on your forest-facing porch. (One quickly gets used to the single gunshots and tractor engine when one realizes what it is and it shows how far sound can travel in such a quiet place). The caretaker and his wife are lovely friendly people and the cleaning of the cottage was done in such a way that you never felt for a moment that your privacy was being invaded. As it were, the cottage feels so private that one is not even aware of the other guests. The cottage is equipped with all the amenities you could dream of needing on such a stay, with a few extras such as outdoor shower, hammock, picnic blanket, books and DVDs. I hope to visit again soon.

Three-day visit with my wife.
Very nice cottage. The road is not the best for a small car. Hiking trails are nice and close and at a good price. We had a very nice stay here.

Baie Dankie vir julle ondersteuning en resensie Koos, ons waardeer dit opreg! Ons is baie bly julle het Forest Edge en die Knysna woud so baie saam met ons geniet.
Wat die stukkie grondpad aan betref, ons het dit geraporteer aan die Provinsiale Paaie Dept en hullle werk daaraan om dit reg te maak na die erge reens en verspoelings wat ons so paar weke terug gehad het.

Heerlike, rustige omgewing met paddas wat kwaak saans en voëls wat kwetter bedags. Lafenis vir die siel.

Lovely, peaceful surroundings with frogs croaking at night and birds chirping during the day. Pleasure for the soul.
All that bothered, and I took it up with management. We booked Forest Edge, among others, because a queen-size bed was advertised. However, it is a double bed and very uncomfortable, the mattress was also old. My husband must have gone to sleep in the other room later. Will definitely go again if the bed problem is fixed.

It's OK.
Susan received us kindly. The house is well equipped and tidy. There were some small issues, like the smell inside the cottage, musty? Old goat? Don't know what the smell was, but made me a little nauseous. Baboons roam the premises a lot, so unsafe for children to play alone on grass in front of the cottage, although they have a man whose job it is to chase them away, and I think he does a good job of it. Forest Edge is far from everything except the hike places like 'Kringe in an Bos'. I wouldn't go again, but I think there are a lot of people who would enjoy it. They have lots of nice DVDs for cold evenings, Fiela's Child watched. Susan, we're sorry we made you so angry when we didn't check out at 10:10. My baby had diarrhea at number 99, just before we had to drive, I was going to wash your towel but didn't want to make you angrier.

Hi Euodia, ek is SO jammer dat julle net 'n "OK" tyd by ons gehad het - dit is SUPER belangrik vir ons dat al ons gaste 'n ongelooflike tyd saam met ons in die Knysna Woud het. Ons waardeer jou eerlike terugvoer ongelooflik. Ek sal 'n dringende vergadering met die bestuur span roep om al die items wat jy aangeraak het onmiddelik aan te spreek. Julle ervaring van Forest Edge is definitief nie op die standaard wat ons vir ons self stel nie. Aanvaar asseblief my nederige omverskoning.
Vriendelike Woud Groete,
Danie

We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely come back again.
If you get tired of city life, Forest Edge is the place to be. We were very well received and thank you for the free upgrade so we could see how the Springboks played the English quietly. Would love to come and stay here for a weekend as a group of friends one day.
