Overall it’s was good stay

Posted 15 Jan 2023 on Hotels
The view at this property is unreal! It’s definitely the best part of the stay. The house itself is kinda old. Due to the load shedding there is no lights in those hours, only Wi-Fi works. You hear noises from other rooms and lobby.

Great Views, friendly staff.

Posted 20 Jan 2018
We had a lovely stay. The staff were very helpful and accommodating. We only gave them notice about my friends dietary requiremenrs when we checked in late afternoon and they went out of their way to have options available the next morning for breakfast. The view from the bedroom and lounge where breakfast is served was amazing.

Beautiful, with the most wonderful and helpful staff. Their muesli is homemade and absolutely lovely. The view is stunning and the rooms are cozy and nice. A perfect place to call home for a few nights!

We walked down to the beach at the head.

It's a easy walk down to the public beach. We enjoyed watching the violent surf smash against the rocks.

Ahh -- so many visitors that travel through Knysna so not get to experience our hidden jewel -- Coney Glen Beach. Heading into winter we will now see whales in the bay too. Hope you will visit again soon.
