Offering rustic accommodation amongst indigenous forest, Cliffhanger Cottages is situated in the country on Knysna’s Rheenendal Road, 14 km from the centre of town, on a tar road.

Cliffhanger offers wooden chalets with modern decor, a One-Bedroom Cottage and the Chalet, which are perched on the edge of a valley overlooking pristine indigenous forest up to the Outeniqua Mountains. There is also a smaller Budget Garden Cottage.

The location was superb. Totally private with endless views of the Knysna forest. Cozy fireplace.

Forest Edge is a private, tranquil, eco-friendly retreat nestled against an indigenous forest outside of Knysna. It features features barbecue facilities, a children’s playground and a lush garden.

The individually decorated cottages come with a terrace overlooking the garden and forest. It is equipped with a seating area, TV and DVD player, and fireplace. Each cottage has a private entrance and the bathroom includes a Victorian bath and outdoor hot water shower. Free WiFi and satellite TV are available in some units.

Location is awesome. Really different to other places I have been to in southern Africa region, with the lush greenery and the forest.

Portland Manor Country Estate is a historical working farm located in Rheenendal, on the Garden Route, some 25 minutes’ drive from the center of Knysna.

A restaurant, the Cowshed Eatery caters for all meals, and the quaint pub, which was once a sheep shearer’s cottage, serves a delicious pub menu and craft beer on tap.

This is a special place — the historical manor is every bit as impressive and charming as it looks on the pictures. The staff was friendly, breakfast and dinner fantastic. Our kids loved the pool, we loved the atmosphere and tranquility. There was an issue with our booking, but the staff found a solution that worked well for us. It is in the countryside, but only a short drive out of Knysna.

The well appointed rooms feature a seating area, private bathrooms and a kitchenette. Each unit is equipped with a flat-screen satellite TV, hairdryer and air conditioning. Enjoy a cup of tea from your terrace or balcony.

Wonderful property so well cared for and relaxing energy in the amazing gardens. When we arrived load shedding was happening which was perfect we went for a walk on the trail in the property and really settled into nature. We had read the cell service was limited and wifi at the cabin wasn't strong (it was absolutely fine I think they've added a repeater). But we decided to make it a screen free night and enjoyed the games they provided and had a wonderful night. Thank you for creating such a wonderful sanctuary!!

    The property is excellent, right in the middle of the forest. We had a whole cottage to ourselves with a private garden and the lilly pond closy by where one can sit and relax, enjoy a lovely glass of wine and watch the sunset or listen to the sounds of nature. The cottage was cozy, well equipped for self catering with utencils, pots and pans, etc. Great place to enjoy peave and tranquility amidst nature.

    Our stay at Portland Manor was exceptional. I loved everything about it from the minute we arrived and enjoying a welcome port. The staff always went out of their way to help and were so accommodating. We enjoyed all our meals in the Cowshed, lovely variety at breakfast time and delicious farm bread. The grounds are peaceful and quiet. Spacious room and ours had a beautiful view over the garden and pool.
