Company information

Forest View Cabins opened the doors to 2 x 6 sleeper cabins in April 2018. The cabins were so popular with couples, that we have subsequently added 2 x 2 sleeper cabins in 2019. We had a high demand for groups of 16 - 20 guests, so decided to add an additional 2 bedroom cabin in 2021. We can now accommodate 16 adults and 6 children.

Property information

Cosy, self-catering cabins with picture-perfect views of the Wolkberg Mountains and surrounding forests. We offer 5 stylishly decorated cabins, fully-equipped for self-catering. Three (3) cabins have two bedrooms and a big double sleeper couch in the lounge, comfortably sleeping six people. Two cabins are open-plan, with a king size bed OR 2 x single beds. Each cabin also provides a covered deck, with spectacular views. Everyone needs the occasional breakaway from the daily turmoil and stress and Forest View Cabins is the ideal choice. We offer peaceful, self catering accommodation – no traffic, no television and minimal disturbances make us your ultimate escape! Please take note, we are in a forested area and occasionally timber is harvested from the nearby plantations and may be noisy during work hours. Forest View Cabins is on a 3.5km dirt road.

Neighbourhood information

Forest View Cabins is perfectly situated for guests to explore the surrounding areas which offer a multitude of diverse things to see and do. The ONLY access is via a 3.5km dirt road.
