Loved it here, our room was a bit small but ok as we had a large patio. Its a lovely quiet place to stay, with a lovely swimming pool and gardens. It is outside of Knysna.
More staff is needed in The Bell Tavern. Staff were excellent but were not able to keep up with the volume. Due to the lack of staff at the Bell Tavern, the food often came out over an hour after we ordered.
Neither the TV in the living room or the bedroom worked.
Overall though the stay was wonderful and the location is beautiful.
We had a wonderful stay. The cottage is extremely well appointed and has all the amenities required.
The beautiful view over the lagoon, fantastic and friendly service and a delicious breakfast made this a delightful stay - as always!
We decided to revisit for our anniversary. Because of Covid it was not very crowded but the level of service was as good as we had previously experienced. Friendly welcome, efficient staff and very comfortable cabins which not even Eskom could diminish. Certainly it will not be our last visit.
Beautiful venue and enthusiastic staff. We went to knysna for a family wedding. Belvedere manor is a lovely wedding location. Ample comfortable accommodation and stunning views.
The cottage we stayed in was lovely. Clean fresh and spacious.

Liked: Staff & service, room comfort
Wonderful location and accommodating staff. Cant be easy operating under these conditions.
We booked a Deluxe Room Garden View and I'm guessing we must have been upgraded because what we got was a 3 bedroom house! The welcome at reception and then the irrepressible 'Jeffrey' was great, rooms were spotless, beds / linen very comfortable, breakfast spread was good and all in a beautiful garden setting overlooking the lake in a collection of colonial style cottages / houses.
Delightful cottage with view of gardens, pool and Knysna lagoon. Staff so friendly and helpful, especially Jeffrey who has been there since 1985.
Wish we could have stayed longer.
We had friends visiting from Europe and we thought that Belvidere Manor would be a perfect base to explore Knysna and surrounds. My wife and i spent a weekend there in June and we enjoyed it so much that we planned a second trip. Everything was as we expected. The rooms are well laid out, very comfortable. Service from ever busy Jeffrey and his was exceptional. Whether we were just relaxing over a G&T enjoying the view of the lagoon or breakfasting on the terrace, we could find no faults. We will definitely visit again
