Featuring panoramic views of the indigenous forests, valley and mountains surrounding Knysna, Forest Valley Cottages offers an outdoor swimming pool and self-catering cottages.

The bathrooms all include a bath, shower and hairdryer. Some cottages have a spa bath or hot tub overlooking the surrounding valley. Guests can also enjoy the shared swimming pool.

We enjoyed our time in the cottage a lot. Especially the barbecues on our balcony with the view into the valley were great. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Thanks!

Located in Knysna, Brenton Lake Holiday Cottages is 4 km from Brenton-on-Sea and a 4-minute walk to the Knysna Lagoon with jetty access. Free private parking is available on site.

Brenton Lake Holiday Cottages also includes an outdoor pool.

I loved my stay in this super clean and super well equipped home. There is virtually everything for a short or long stay. The spacious compound is lovely with guinea fowl, tame bushbuck and cute bunnies all around. Very safe area with wonderful views over the lagoon.

    Incredible views over Simola golf course and Knysna heads in the distance. The sunsets are wow. Beautiful, spotless house situated atop a hill in Simola. By far the best accomodation for a group of friends or a family vacation. The house is so spacious - no matter how many guests everyone can get a little corner of it to themselves. Hosts, the owner and the caretaker were super friendly.

    The kids club and daily entertainment was fantastic. We had no reason to leave the hotel. Philani, who heads up the entertainment was an absolute legend with the kids and has the entire family addicted to Bingo! Would highly recommend, esp for a family with kids.

    The entertainment area such as the swimming pool, Jacuzzi and the game centre were the best. We enjoyed ourselves very much. Our chalet was also great. The park was also a good addition there. Our daughter had a variety of entertainment.

    The best stay for families with young kids. The food is fantastic, service amazing, the facilities well appointed. I had the most relaxing massage treatment at Bliss spa with Melissa and the cheery on top was the Kids Club edutainment programme led by Philani and Akhona made this our family holiday destination of choice. We even booked our stay for 2022 when we checked out!

    The ambience, views, facilities (entertainment - pool table and darts, jacuzzi, swimming pool etc) were all just perfect. Great value for money and a very accommodating host (Martin). The rooms were beautiful and suited to our needs, single and double beds. The living room and dining room area was 🔥
