About our home

Our 6 level home overlooks the Knysna Lagoon. A balcony leading from the lounge is the perfect spot to enjoy breakfast overlooking the communal gardens and the lagoon. The main bedroom, which has a double bed, is spacious and sunny and has a view of the famous Knysna Heads and has a bathroom-on-suite. The other 2 bedrooms are spacious and comfortable and there are 2 single beds in each. The kitchenette and dining room are on 1 level and the lounge has a gas heater for the odd cold evening. A twenty minute walk takes you to both the town centre and the Knysna Waterfront. There are 2 mountain bikes and a 2 man canoe in the garage, for those who enjoy exercise. There is additional parking outside the garage. Knysna is 480km from Cape Town and the trip takes approximately 5 hours by car.

Where is it?

Neighbourhood

Knysna is situated in the Garden Route and is sandwiched by the Indian Ocean on its southern side and by tropical forest on the other. It has an interesting history and is peopled by many interesting characters. The climate is very moderate and is sunny for most of the year. There are many hiking and mountain biking trails as well as water sports available. Great restaurants and shops make the town very attractive to the tourist.
