    It would have been good to have some milk in the room, but it was not a deal breaker.

    The location, quiet suburb, the privacy. The owner very friendly and the coziness of not too many rooms and guests.

    They are every hospitable and efficient with nice breakfast. They called immediately they realised that we forgot something. I like the place very near to our place of concern. Rooms are spacious and the host is very informative.

    We liked it. However for dinner you need the car, there is nothing close by. But there are a lot of Restaurants reachable in a 10 minutes drive.

    The bed and the pillows were excellent. We had all we needed. Francelle was a very good and friendly host and the breakfast was delicious.

    My stay was superb, quiet and peaceful. The set-up speaks to that of a professionally managed Guesthouse. The location is 10min within reach of Leasure Isle, Knysna Waterfront and Town centre.

    The wi-fi gave us some problems at times, but it might have been just a temporary issue, because when it worked, it was fast enough.

    Good location in a quiet neighbourhood. Everybody was friendly, and the breakfast we received was of better quality than what we had in some restaurants.

    The only thing I can think of to improve the stay, especially for folks with children, is a small jungle gym or something to keep the kids occupied.

    Even though we arrived late in the evening, Linda still had a big smile on her face and treated us with a welcoming kindness; and ensured our comfort before we all retired for the evening. Throughout our two-night stay, Linda was very accommodating with our schedule; and blessed us with beautiful breakfasts. The rooms were very comfortable, and we had a great view over the lake. All round, we were happy and will be returning should we be in the area again. Highly recommended.

    Loadshedding other than that, none

    The place was great. Our room was an Executive with its own TV/Sitting room and lots and lots of space . It was overlooking the lake and atmosphere was excellent. The host was great and did extra for us on my wife's birthday. Breakfast was great and we enjoyed every moment of our stay there. The host every morning will alert us of the loadshedding schedules and provide advice on how best we can spend the day
