Situated at the base of the wild Tsitsikamma Mountains, The Fernery overlooks an impressive 30-metre waterfall in the Sanddrift River gorge. The deck area boasts a cocktail bar and free WiFi is available throughout.

The spacious rooms and suites are individually decorated and filled with light. Some rooms have fireplaces and offer scenic views. The elegant bathrooms have floor heating and heated towel rails. From the moment you enter the property, you know you're in for a special treat! Upon entering reception, we were warmly greeted and efficiently checked in. After that, we had a personal tour around the property and then were shown our wonderful chalet. The deck is large and has a fabulous view of the canyon forest. The bed is comfortable. The bathing area is AMAZING. The restaurant staff is excellent, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu and the area. The food is great! We already have it in mind for our next visit to the Storms River area!

From the cozy atmosphere to the thoughtful touches, everything was designed with comfort and warmth in mind. The cottage was incredibly inviting and well-equipped, making it the perfect place to relax and unwind. A special thanks to Sophia who is a fantastic host who truly goes the extra mile to ensure her guests feel welcomed and well-cared for. We truly enjoyed our time there and are already looking forward to returning.

The game drive was perfect—we managed to see the Big Five and much more, with lots of interesting explanations and stories. The colonial-style rooms made it feel like stepping into another era. Everything was perfect. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!
