Lovely stay

We had a lovely stay at Hide-Away Guest House which is situated very well, just on the border of central town so within easy walking / cycling distance of all attractions, but without being in the main village. Colleen was very helpful with giving us information about the town and surrounding areas, and even assisted us with restaurant reservations. Breakfast which was served to our room patio was great. Room was comfortable and well appointed.

I booked a standard room but got upgraded to a room with shared balcony and lagoon view, which is stunning, especially at sunset. The house and rooms are spacious and beautifully decorated with all comforts like tv or minibar. Hosts are very friendly and make you feel really welcome. There also is a swimming pool and private parking. The guest house is located off the N2 into Knysna, when I was ... more

The warm personal welcome and coffee on the pool deck with the owners, the private breakfast served on the verandah whilst overlooking the Knysna lagoon and the heads are stunning. The rooms are very comfortable with fully stocked bar fridge and all. The decor is superb and rooms etc. well maintained. The owners have an excellent knowledge of Knysna, what to see, where to eat, wher ... more
