Fantasties -
27 April 2008
Ons het fantasties oorgebly. Die feit dat Thys, wat Engelssprekend is, uit sy pad gegaan het om ons in goeie Afrikaans te bedien was 'n bonus. Dalk kan die "firma" iets daarvan by hom leer. Hy was regtig baie gaaf en bekwaam.

We enjoyed our stay very much - especially watching the stars at night, listening to the music of the night.

Situated off the beaten track, quietly nestling in the expansive Millwood Indigenous Knysna Forest, Forest Edge offers a haven for nature-loving families, stressed-out city-dwellers, adventurers & honeymooners. Each fully equipped 2-bedroomed gold-mining style cottage houses up to 5 persons. All cottages with GAS stoves for comfort during outages. Forest Edge, with its little extras and personal touches, offers a memorable and affordable break-away experience to remember.
Enjoy an emerald day on Forest walks, picnics or biking trails, lazing in a hammock or at the beach, or on an adventure activity or trip to Knysna town (20 leisurely minutes away). After a refreshing hot-water outdoor shower or relaxing indoor bath, mellow out on the veranda with sundowners. Watch a bushbuck or baboon family drink at the dam. Light a braai (barbecue) under the stars to the chorus of frogs; flitting fireflies and evocative nightjars add to the enchantment. In winter, enjoy a book or movie in front of a cozy log-fire...
Country Life Magazine's article on Forest Edge (re Drupkelders forest walk to exquisite rock pools) states:
"Lilies cling to the rock face, hanging down in bunches: what a pure Midsummer Nights' Dream experience"....
