“A quiet place with views of the city, lake and mountains.”
It was an incredible stay where we were able to experience the city of Knysna. We were celebrating our relationship and we were greatly surprised by all the care and attention given to our stay, and all the kindness they left in the room for the occasion. The room is large and spacious, with great bedding and an incredible location. The city is incredible, with a unique beauty. It was a great experience, it surprised us a lot. It is a strategic city for state parks like Tsitsikamma.

A beautiful BNB with such stunning views, room was lovely and there was so much attention to detail. The continental breakfast was set up in the room, which was a treat to not have to get up and go down to breakfast. Daniel and Anita were wonderful hosts, making sure we had everything we needed.

This a great location. Walking distance from The Waterfront and shops, just off the N2. The rooms were very comfy and breakfast was left in the fridge for us. We didn't get to speak to the owners but we're allowed to check in early and leave bags before our 2.30pm Featherbed Boat trip. Also liked the USB charge point in bedside lamps. Stunning view too.

Elevated location with views, especially good at sunset, over Knysna, with a cooling breeze in the evenings. Some rooms have balconies. Quiet, clean, comfortable rooms. Bathroom well provisioned. Accessible by car, with a choice of restaurants and the Knysna sights and activities nearby.
