PURA VIDA FOREST CABIN - Witelsbos

The Two-Bedroom House includes a living area with a fireplace, a fully equipped kitchen with a microwave, and a bathroom with a shower. The outdoor bathroom has its own entrance and lets you shower under the stars. Bedrooms have comfortable beds and linen, but there are no doors on the bedrooms - guests seeking privacy should note this. The cabin has high-speed Wi-Fi, free parking, and a terrace with mountain views. Soundproofing is minimal; expect to hear nature.

There is no restaurant on site. The kitchen comes with a microwave, stove, utensils, and basic supplies like coffee, tea, spices, and oil. Guests must bring their own food. The nearest shop is a 20-minute drive away. The host can provide fresh organic vegetables and eggs on request. Outdoor braai (barbecue) facilities are available in the fire pit.

Guests can hike and cycle from the property. A path through the garden leads into the forest. The outdoor fireplace and fire pit are perfect for evening bonfires. Stargazing and sunset views from the terrace are popular. Birdwatching and spotting monkeys are common. The cabin is close to Tsitsikamma National Park and forest plantations for walks.
