    Absolutely nothing

    Super clean and comfortable. Terry has thought of everything you need for a super stay. All the kitchen amenities you need for cooking and/or baking. Electric and gas stove provided. Great water pressure and hot water. Comfortable bed to sleep and comfortable couch for sitting. So many little touches she provided to make it a fantastic stay.

    No suggestions or complaints. The stay exceeded our expectations.

    The small attention to detail made our stay very memorable. The garden was immaculate and the birdlife amazing. The accommodation was extremely clean and neat with all the necessary things for a comfortable stay.

    The welcome, garden cleanliness sounds of birds, feeding of them on hand just to connect with nature

    The house has everything you need as a tourist. It's most comfortable and clean, very private. The owner is very sweet, caring, and loving . My family didn't want to leave, they were very. Terry is well organized in everything

    Highly recommended. Perfect in every way! How else can one describe our stay at Rest-Inn? Terry has attended to every detail (and so much more) in the kitchen (every utensil you can think of!), bathroom, bedrooms (most comfortable beds, air-con for hot and humid nights), lounge (books and boardgames), wifi. All of this combined with the beautiful garden and abundance of birds. Gas stove and sufficient light during loadshedding. Terry's friendly and kind assistance throughout our stay was magnificent. It felt like home. We wished we could stay longer.

    We had a fabulous stay at Rest Inn- the apartment is beautifully decorated, spacious, superbly clean, secure and well equipped. Terry was a fabulous host and added lots of extra touches to make our stay perfect- from chocolates on the pillows, to local recommendations, and enabling us to enjoy the birds in her wonderful gardens. It was a delight to watch them from the sunny terrace in the mornings and evenings! Terry had also put in place extra facilities to mitigate against load shedding- including a gas stove and lamps which were really useful. Finally the location is perfect, very quiet and tranquil but easy to access Knysna and the wider area to see the amazing attractions- the Knysna Heads viewpoint is a must! Thank you so much Terry, we hope to come back one day and highly recommend!

    Cottage was exceptionally clean and stocked with everything we needed for an enjoyable, relaxing stay. Terry is a wonderful host. We appreciated the fresh fruit, rusks, milk and filtered water. The gas plate was great during load shedding. A Toblerone chocolate for each of us!! Such comfy beds and crisp linen.
