    Our room was a bit small but we did not spend much time inside as there is a lot to do in Knysna. There is a nice garden and the manager is very friendly and helpful. Good breakfast.

    What a wonderful experience! The decor of the guest house really got me into the Christmas spirit. The beautiful lights at night created such a festive atmosphere. The rates were affordable, which was a big plus. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, providing great recommendations for things to do and see. They even gave me a map to help me navigate the town. The room I stayed in was beautifully decorated and very clean. The bathroom was spotless and had some amazing smelling shower gel. I had a great time and would definitely recommend this place to others.

    I really can't think of anything negative about my stay at this guest house. Everything was perfect and exceeded my expectations.

    I absolutely loved my stay at this guest house. The staff were incredibly friendly and made me feel right at home from the moment I arrived. The rooms were clean, spacious, and had private entrances, which I really appreciated. The guest house is located in a beautiful and quiet residential neighborhood, making it the perfect place to relax and unwind. Additionally, it was very easy to get to the Waterfront and the town centre, as they were just a short distance away. The breakfast provided was delicious and the hotel facilities were top-notch. The secure parking was also a great convenience.
