Knysna Accommodation / Forest Valley Cottages Accommodation in Knysna / Self Catering Cottages in Knysna

Treetop luxury, beautiful and romantic hideaways. These deluxe suites are built high, at treetop level, with awesome views of indigenous forest valleys and the mountains beyond.

Accommodation


The cottages are stylishly and individually furnished with a natural contemporary feel. The “honeymoon suites” each have a plush Queen-size bed with quality linens; a Jacuzzi / spa bath opens to the gorgeous view on the decks. We supply nice bath goodies and lots of candles so you can bubble away.

The larger units have a modern deep shower, double / Queen bed in the main bedrooms, which overlook the view, and two single beds in the second room. There is a double sleeper couch in Lavender Edge which can then accommodate six persons, and a baby cot. Lavender Edge has a view bathroom en-suite and an outdoor shower. Earth Rose our family honeymooner has a gorgeous Jacuzzi in the deck overlooking the forest views.

Some units have a private courtyard complete with lapa and BBQ. Other units have BBQ Webers on the deck high up, from where you can enjoy the forest night animal calls and the awesome views. All the decks are very private and are equipped with a table and chairs, a Weber BBQ and some have a hammock. There is a plunge pool, which overlooks the magnificent views, for the use of all the guests. It's like a big Jacuzzi with aim flow jets and seating all around. And for the more active there is a forest trail from the cottages to the bottom of the valley.

All cottages have a wood-burning fireplace for wintry nights, DsTV and CD. The kitchens are fully equipped for self catering with a microwave, small oven, fridge/freezer, etc. Fans supplied in each unit. We supply a complimentary basket of firewood in winter, tea / coffee and chocolates on arrival. The cottages are serviced daily (excluding Sunday and public holidays) and are private and safe.

Activities


• Start your day in a languid fashion, lazing on the deck chairs or enjoying breakfast on the sunny decks drinking in the awesome views that stretch on forever in front of you. The valley is ever-changing in its moods. Enjoy watching and listening to the many birds from this high perch as well.
• Enjoy a forest hike from your cottage, down into the valley (about an hour). On a sunny day, relax in one of the loungers next to the Jacuzzi/type pool and savour the views from there too. Outdoor braais can be lit at the pool area, so make a day of it.
• Forest Valley is also en-route to the state forest, with many rambles, picnic spots and even the old goldmines can be explored. Tea and cake can be enjoyed at the quaint Mother Holly Tearoom in the forest.
• Enjoy a horse riding outride, which can be arranged nearby.
• Beautiful swimming beaches, rivers and lagoon nearby for fishing and canoeing.
• Mashie golf course nearby.
• Visit the country restaurants around or take your pick from the many in Knysna town.
• Saturday morning Harvestime market in Sedgefield should definitely not be missed.
• Massages and pamper treatments can be booked nearby.

Then return to your secluded cocoon of comfort, light a fire, gaze at the stars and listen to the night sounds.
