“relaxing in knysna”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 22, 2012

if you want to relax on your trip through africa i can recomment you to stay in the knysna country house! This bed and breakfast is situated on the hills beside Knysna and has a beautifull view over Knysna and the lagune in 5-10 minutes from centre and harbor with its nice restaurants. The dutch owners will help you with everything and give you all attention you need. Their intention is to make your stay as pleasant as possible. Breakfast is good, they have nice rooms and there is a good looking swimming pool and nice garden! You cannot wish more. I hope your stay will be as good as ours and we thank the owners for everything.

Room Tip: All rooms where nice
