The location is unbeatable, walking distance to all the amenities and restaurants yet still the apartment and area is very quiet at night. The hosts, Marlize and Andre, were super friendly and went out of their way to give restaurant recommendations, day excursions etc and to make us feel at home. The apartment has all that you need for both a short and longterm stay, with parking right in front of the unit. We had a really lovely stay and would recommend to our family and friends.

It is a very nice place to stay in Knysna! The hosts are gentle and made me confortable. They reported everything I need about what to do around. The all place is good and the room was perfect. The location allowed me to be near to Supermarket, restaurants and bars, beside the attractions. There's a honest bar inside the Manor House, something I enjoyed very much!

Beautiful guest house in good location in Knysna. The hosts, Richard and Mandy, are so friendly and helpful. Felt like being at home. Comfortable, clean rooms. No generator for electricity in rooms, but load shedding didn't bother us. Terrific breakfast in cute dining room. Plenty of parking in gated lot. Could walk to downtown area.
