The owners really took pride in the whole enterprise and made you feel most welcome. The breakfast was super and cooked to order. Room facilities were excellent too with comfortable bed and updated electrical and bathroom features.
I rather liked the fact that it was a 10/15 minute walk into Knysna but some may find that somewhat arduous.

Das Guest House ist super modern eingerichtet. Ne Es wurde im letzten Jahr mit viel Aufwand saniert und modernisiert. Wir haben im Bett sehr gut geschlafen. - wirklich außergewöhnlich gut ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!! Außerdem ist der Ausblick, trotz der Lage an der Hauptstraße, wirklich super schön..
Die „Innenstadt“ von Knysna erreicht man zu Fuß in 10-15 Minuten.
Wir haben von diesem Guesthouse sehr viele Ausflüge gemacht (Whalewatching, Tsiskikama Nationalpark, Plattenberg Bay etc.) und alles innerhalb von 45min Fahrt erreicht - also auch dafür eignet sich die Lage.
Außerdem haben wir von der Managerin super Tipps rund um Essen, Ausflüge und Sehenswürdigkeiten bekommen.
Wir haben fünf Nächte hier genächtigt und somit kam uns das Frühstück relativ eintönig vor - gab aber für diesen Preis trotzdem nichts zu meckern.

Excellent hospitality, Colleen and Cecil went out of their way to make our stay memorable. Delicious breakfast cooked to order, spotlessly clean room and very comfortable bed as well as an efficient laundry service.
Their tips for local restaurants and golf courses were spot on. The hosts have a wealth of local knowledge and gave us a lot of useful advice. Was a genuine pleasure to spend 4 days here.
9.0
Very friendly owners, welcoming to a group of runners and non-runners for an ideal weekend break! Colleen and Cecil were extremely accommodating, bustling with information about Knysna and surrounds and were kind enough to arrange shuttle services and bookings for dinner for the group. Brilliantly tucked away, but ideally close to the Waterfront, shopping Centres and the Knysna Marathon finishing field. Can't wait to visit again.

Warm and friendly hosts. Colleen was very kind to accommodate late check-in request. She even recommended to have breakfast in the balcony overlooking the lagoon. We enjoyed having the breakfast with those views!!
