The views from the guesthouse were incredible. Lovely hosts, really helpful and with plenty of good information and ideas to help us get the most out of our stay in Knysna. We were in the twin room the first night which was ok, but the owners were kind enough to change us to the double for the second night, and the double room with the private balcony was really lovely. The guesthouse as a whole has a very homely feel to it, cosy, comfortable, and with a good welcome! It's in a safe area, and you could walk to/from town in the day but it is up a steep hill. Good parking available though.

The rooms and bathrooms aren't super modern, so if you are looking for all the mod cons it may not be the place for you.

We felt so at home. Mart and Pete are wonderful hosts who thought of everything we would need before we knew we needed it. Our room was cool and comfortable with lots of space. The property is nestled in a special spot on the hill, in walking distance from town. Mart served us the best breakfasts with really good coffee on the balcony, overlooking a gorgeous view of Knysna each morning. We were really happy with our stay and would recommend to friends 🥰

The room is great. The bed is comfortable. And the place is safe on the premises. The hummingbird feeders. The gluten-free toast that Mart provided was a nice touch. Peter is a fountain of knowledge and fun to talk to. I highly suggest an extra 2 hours a day to learn from him as if you were on a tour. Or you can pay 1100R to see the Featherbed Reserve by Ferry (highly recommended). When visiting this property, you feel like family. The flowers and the unique birds and Peter's knowledge of them is a bird 🐦 watchers fantasy. Parking is good, and the property is small enough that you are not overwhelmed with quests. You can also get your laundry done and without a dryer for cottons at about 100R a load. Resteraunts are all less than 10 mins by car. Do not walk there.

Advise not walking to Thiesen. The dogs next door never shut up. All night, they bark. Mart and Peter have done what they can. In fact, while writing this, Peter was trying to quite that dog. 😄

Ideal place to break away some to Owners are just the friendliest on earth, willing to assist where possible Got a fright when the dog came out, only to find him even friendlier! Great stay!

The location perhaps, but I only say this as I did not have transport Maybe a generator for loadshedding would have made it perfect, but that too was no trainsmash

The owners were incredible and so helpful. They suggested wonderful places to go, that we never even knew about. Absolutely delicious breakfast every morning.

Plug points next to beds would be great. Maybe a fridge in the room.

A very nice and cozy, a bit old style, but still comfortable guest house. Super friendly owner and good breakfast. Nicely situated close to the centre. Beautiful views.

location was excellent, breakfast was delicious, the hosts were extremely helpful and friendly

Very warm and welcoming hosts with a deep knowledge on the area and beyond. Martas breakfast was outstanding and whole property made to indulge and relax. It is totally safe and still close enough to the town centre to walk. There is nothing to complain at all :)

The owners were super nice and friendly and helped us a lot with planning our day in Knysna. We enjoyed our stay there; it felt like home with a fantastic view.

The awesome hospitality of Pete and Mart. They make friends of you within 2 days and family in 4 days. It's home away from home

That we couldn't stay longer.
