Mycket bra "sista-minuten" bokning

Fint välkomnande av hushållerskan som hjälpte oss med det nödvändiga. Lite sherry till oss som välkomstdrink. Fin, ren pool för ett kvällsdopp. Rent och bekvämt. Allt fungerade, även Wifi. Till en god, normal frukost fick vi lite varmt också. Vi hade ett trevligt litet samtal med ägarinnan som var tillbaka på förmiddagen. Bra parkering och kort bilavstånd till Knysnas kanske vackraste utsiktspunkt. Vi rekommenderar detta boende.

Pleasant comfortable stay in Knysna

Comfortable stay in a modern B&B in a residential suburb, with our own independent entrance. Nice lagoon views but a drive away from nearby restaurants. Ample parking which is always appreciated.
