Nice place with a lot of atmosphere. The room was nice with the balcony. The pool was nice. The garden was fantastic. Anna, the owner was very friendly and we got many good advices from her.
The view was blocked by a tyre workshop. It looked fairly recent. During working hours it was quite noisy and took away a bit of the relaxed atmosphere from this beautiful house and garden.

It was a perfect stay. Our hosts were welcoming, informative, courteous and very friendly. The accommodation was 100% suited to our needs. The gardens were a delight with countless blooms and we enjoyed the swimming pool. The location perfect for exploring Knysna by car or by foot.
I can't think of anything.

Excellent friendly , knowledgeable owner management
The water system functions perfectly, but it is from my parents era and fortunately I know how to work it. Water can come through extremely hot, so supervision & care has to be taken with children.

I loved the view from my room looking out over the lagoon. Our room was spacious and very neat. Ana and Ernest were very friendly and accommodating in every way. This photo is the view from our room. Thanks Ana and Ernest❤️
Bathroom was bit tiny but still neat.

The rooms were large and bright with a huge private deck overlooking the ocean. The staff was friendly and accommodating.
It is a bit difficult to walk to the centre/waterfront because the terrain is quite steep. Walking down would be fine but coming back up is hard.

The lodge is nestled in very well maintained gardens, filled with flowers and nice trees. Most rooms come with a balcony which is perfect to relax. The owners were very welcoming and a fascinating couple. The pool, although small, is perfect to wind down after a hiking day. The breakfast was very good and served on a beautiful deck, outside where we could hear birds. A very nice stay in a clean, welcoming and comfortable lodge, very close to town.
One minor improvement is to provide an iron as none was available when we requested one. Although the owner said they usually have an ironing service, I think an iron should be made available at anytime, for guest's use. No one likes a creased shirt.

Beautiful and very neat Lodge. The lady of the house was just too sweet.
Our room was inside the house and the stairs to our room were too steep, one wrong step you'd break a neck, lol. Wish I'd known before booking about the stairs, just imagine if I had brought an elderly person. I also didn't like their hot water system, while in the shower the water became cold and hot again. I never think of traveling with an iron because I know every lodge have a laundry room or service, this one does have but they said they can't help us with an iron because of too much laundry they have. Was so disappointing.

The breakfast was delicious, really well served, had a variety of options and was willing to accommodate a gluten-free requirement. The garden is lovely, filled with beautiful flowers and full of nature and the soft sounds of birds. It was very peaceful and so close to the main mall. The hosts were super accommodating and very helpful.
