The location is stunning and unique. The cottage is top class and exactly as described, catering to all your needs. The hosts are good people - helpful and hospitable.

Richard South Africa

The location of the cottage was ideal, very private with beautiful mountain views and big garden. Lovely cottage with everything we required, from well-equipped kitchen (spices, wide choice of tea, filter coffee with plunger and rusks) to quality linen and towels, wood and charcoal for the outdoor braai and indoor fireplace. Our hostess's fine touch to detail didn't go unnoticed throughout the cottage. Our communication was answered very promptly every time and she was very accommodating with our arrival arrangements.

Host Information

Host review score
Kalanderkloof Cottage is a secluded, TGCSA 4-star graded cottage on the Kalanderkloof Farm - on the very edge of the Knysna Forest. A place to enjoy nature, birdsong, the sound of wind through the trees, absolute quiet and on most nights the far-off rumble of the sea. This eco-friendly contemporary cottage with modern finishes, was built on the exact footprint of an old farmworker cottage. It is off-the-grid and use is made of solar power, gas and rainwater. The cottage is on the forest edge, with a backdrop of fynbos and a pine plantation as you enter the farm. For our guests we offer ultimate relaxation, walks on short and longer (2 hrs) hiking trails, a swim in the Karatara River, Picnicking, birdwatching, botanising, and stargazing. Ideal for two. This small cottage has an open plan lounge, dining and kitchen area. A double bed sized sleeper couch, could cater for two children (under 11), is in the lounge. A four-seater glass table is ideal for enjoying meals in front of the fireplace. A cozy fire to warm up those colder nights or just for enjoyment adds to the ambience. The kitchen is fully equipped with a gas powered fridge with freezer compartment, a gas stove and oven.
Kalanderkloof Cottage is close to many activities. The garden Route trail Park is close by and a great venue for cyclists. Beaches are 15 minutes away, as are numerous restaurants, Sedgefields markets such as the Mosaic Market, Scarab Market and Wild Oats fresh produce market - a hive of activities on a Saturday. 4x4 trails, canoeing, horseback riding, paragliding, photography opportunities and quadbiking are also within the 20 km radius from the farm.
