Have faith! We go to the end of the surfaced road, only to find there was another 6 Km to go on forest tracks....it IS worth it ! We really enjoyed our time at The Fernery, and the staff were so attentive and helpful and the breakfasts were amazing! Just watch out for the monkeys and the sugar sachets, if you choose to dine on the terrace! As it was nearing the end of the season, the on-site pool was a little cool for use, but if the weather had been warmer, it could have been refreshing!

It was so amazing! So private and in nature it was unbelievable! With amazing friendly service with great food and scenery I wouldn’t choose a other destination. I would highly recommend the cabins if you want a private adventure in the woods!

Stunning location in the middle of nowhere. Checkin area didn’t feel very welcoming. Would have been nice to have a little waiting area and a welcome drink. Staff are all very friendly and helpful. Breakfast/dining area is a bit outdated but the view from the restaurant deck is stunning. The food (dinner) in the restaurant was outstanding. We did not try the braai menu in the cottage. Breakfast was nice, not overdone. The room (Fern Cottage) was amazing! Comfort, cleanliness, privacy. Everything you need for a relaxed or romantic breakaway. Very nice pool, but strangely located next to reception so you can hear phonecalls and checkins. The garden is beautiful and there are some nice viewing decks and trails on the property. We definitely loved our stay!

This is our second time staying at the Fernery and once-again were blown away by the beauty, friendly service and helpful staff. Upgraded to a room with a view which was spectacular and the food was delicious. Would highly recommend!

Excellent stay and thoroughly enjoyed the location and restaurant. Only wish the pool in on the front of the room should be heated

It was very cosy. Beautiful place and very good food. I would highly recommend The Fernery.

The location is beautiful on the edge of a ravine and over;looking the sea. We had a room overlooking the ocean with private deck and everything about it was wonderful. The staff, the food, the service and the attention to detail. Can't imagine anywhere better than this and we have been to many hotels around the world. The location is also wonderful near the Tsitsikamma forest.

This place has amazing views and the accommodation was gorgeous. I had forgotten what I had booked so it was a lovely surprise to find I had booked the owners suite and it did not disappoint. The log fire was amazing. The service was attentive but not intrusive. The bed was so comfortable. Definitely worth booking.

the Victorian room is small, noisy, poorly decorated, located between the parking lot and the two entrances to the hotel. No intimacy. View on walls and the kitchen. Water not clean in the bathroom. Staff not friendly and no solution propose.

Wonderful chalets. The hotel fulfill all our expectations.

Superb location. Worth the bumpy ride on the road. Lacked a bit of soul off-season.

Unfortunately we had to leave early but it was a wonderful place to visit and definitely want to return

Lovely little lodge hidden on a cliff overlooking a gorge and the ocean. The Suite room was overall great with nice modern decor....BUT with NO dressing table or work desk AT ALL. No plugs for charging phones (unless you unplug something). The restaurant was a total let down, from the unfriendly waitress to the mediocre food, to the cat running around the tables. Dinner was very rushed, as it seemed the staff wanted to knock off. Breakfast was great, though with friendly staff.

Beautiful setting of the property. Friendly staff and

All though it’s a long 7 km on dirt road, once you get there you won’t regret. We have NEVER seen any place like the Fernery, it’s sitting on a cliff looking over waterfall and river flowing to the sea. Absolutely stunning!!! We loved every minute. Stayed 2 nights and wished we could stay for 2 more. Definitely be back. The only negative was, when we wanted to fish the Dam was clogged with weeds .

Beautiful retreat in the forest Bit of a bumpy lane to access but worth the drive stayed in the log cabins luxury at its best

Great location, great views, great staff. A little oasis.

We loved the view, it had everything you can ask, waterfall, mountains, river and ofcourse the sea. It was just amazing!

Location of the lodge is amazing. Restaurant has great views.

Lovely location, rooms and facilities first class. The food was well cooked and serving staff excellent. We did not stay long enough to take advantage of all the facilities. Was not expecting the 6km long dirt track access to the facility.

The lodge and some of the rooms have the most remarkable view over a gorge with a series of small waterfalls running down to the sea. The rooms are extremely comfortable and generously appointed. The food was excellent, as was the service in the dining room. There was a glitch with our booking (a mismatch between the room as described and as provided) but that has been addressed. We would recommend this place to anyone – the prices are fully justified and we hope to return.

Very nice view and amazing lodges, everxthing you need. We had dinner there and it was also very good and recommandable.

A long bumpy ride along a dirt track left us wondering what we would find at the end. We arrived early and our room wasn't ready but we were given a tour of the facitlity and its breathtaking views over the gorge out to the sea. When we got to our 'chalet' it was stunning. Chalet 7 hangs over the river, the Jacuzzi that does the same a short walk away. A log fire sits in the corner with a lovely sitting area. The restaurant is stunning with wide views. The staffed were very helpful and considerate. An exceptional experience.
