We really enjoyed our stay at the Bridgewater, Lyn was incredibly friendly and helpful. She provided us with all of the information we needed and even changed our booking at Addo National Park for us so that we had more time on the Garden Route, including requesting and printing the confirmation for us.

The room was spacious and the bed very comfortable. There was a good choice for breakfast and the breakfast room was very light and airy overlooking the garden. The restaurants at... More

We stayed here in a family room for one night on our road trip to Cape Town. Very friendly helpful staff, lovely clean rooms and a great breakfast. Our host also took time to help us select a restaurant to dine in and negotiated a table for us, as it was short notice on valentines day. If we head to... More

We have been traveling the world for a number of years and this B & B is probably the best we have experienced in every respect. The hospitality, the tourist information, the breakfast & the room were more than excellent and Kynsna is a lovely location to stop along the Garden Route.
