    “Wonderful, tranquil accommodation on the Rheenendal Road (part of the Knysna forest). We stayed in the family unit (second time we are visiting). It has everything you need. Close enough to Knysna (shops & activities), but also close enough to the forest and its walking trails. There’s also a Sunday market close by.
    Loads of activities and beautiful scenery in the area or just have a braai at ‘home’. You can even go on a hike from the property through the forest. Definitely worth a visit.”- Janitha de Kock

    “3 star doesn’t even come close to it. This place is amazing. It’s a home away from home. The units are so comfy and romantic. I found myself never wanting to leave. Thank you so much to Julie and family for the most relaxing stay on our honeymoon road trip. You have truly made it so so special for us and we appreciate it!!! ❤”- Shanice Kriel

    “Luxurious rooms set in beautiful gardens with a stunning view over indigenous forests to the mountains in the west.
    Rooms was incredibly welcoming with every detail being well considered and adding to the overall experience.
    Bed and bedding was very comfortable, with exquisite linen and enough towels.
    While the rusks & milk etc. was appreciated – the sherry added an unexpected level of welcome and indulgence.
    It was perfect.”
    Thank you”- Eugenie Luck
