Reviews of Forest Edge 3*
We had a wonderful mid-week stay! Superbly equipped cabin, with so much attention to detail, it is clear the hosts carefully thought about catering to guests' every need. The extra lengths that our hosts went to everyday by making the beds, refreshing the bathroom, cleaning the fireplace and preparing the hearth with kindling so that we could just light up the fire, was unexpected and a really special touch. The grounds and amenities are extremely well maintained. We were very impressed by the way fences and foliage are strategically placed to ensure privacy between cabins. 5 stars, without a doubt!
The cottage, cleanliness, friendly staff, beautiful natural laid out garden, birdlife for photography. Simply everything was outstanding. Thank you Danie and staff. Me and my wife enjoyed it to the extreme ❗❗❗
