Description: Fern Gully is a small working farm, in a rural, forested area 16kms outside Knysna on the Rheenendal road to the historical Millwood Goldmines and the Goudveld indigenous forest.
A visit to the site of the old goldmines or a walk and picnic at Jubilee Creek, is a 15 minute car drive away.
Buffels Bay, popular for swimming and surfing, is the nearest beach and hiking, biking and horse trails are within close vicinity.
Fern Gully is within easy access to Knysna and Sedgefield and all the scenic and recreational activities they have to offer.
The gully that gave the farm it's name runs through the bottom half of the land and the cabins, being built on stilts, at the edge of the gorge give the impression and ambiance of being in the tree tops. They are so positioned as to provide maximum seclusion and privacy and each cabin's deck faces it's own view through the trees.
The cabins are solely Rob's design and creation and being uniquely different each one has it's own distinct appeal.
Each cabin is fully furnished and equipped for self-catering ease. Fridge, hot-plate, microwave, crockery, glassware, cookware, bedding, and bath towels. As reception in the forest is poor a DVD is provided for movie watching. Braai facilities are on the deck as well as an additional hot & cold outside shower.
Owl Cabin, the pioneer cabin is entirely built of wood, even to it's shingled roof! It is decorated with the feel and natural tones of the forest and is a perfect romantic getaway for honeymooners.
Coucal Cabin has two double bedrooms, one being a small cosy dormer room upstairs and a third bedroom with two single beds. It has a spacious living-room and open-plan kitchen.
Hoopoe Cabin, more spacious than Owl is decorated in the colours of the beautiful Hoopoe and it's outdoor shower has an even more spectacular view through the tree tops and is frequently visited by a troop of vervet monkeys.
Porcupine Cabin has a separate bedroom with an en-suite shower and loo and can sleep an extra two people on a double sleeper-couch in the sitting-room but preferably it is a 2 berth.
