Wir hatten einen wunderschönen Aufenthalt, die Unterkunft ist toll gelegen, sodass man grade am Abend den Sonnenuntergang genießen und anschließend vom hot Tube aus die Sterne beobachten kann. Wie haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt!

The Dairy

RuanRating, 5 stars1 month ago
I can't wait to return. The serene farm stay was perfect for a family break from the city's hustle and bustle. There was a sprawling lawn for the kids to enjoy themselves, and the crate of bats/balls, etc., was put to good use. It is eye-opening to see what the city kids are missing. The hike to the river was amazing, and not once did the kids have a chance to even think of saying they were tired, as nature kept them guessing around every corner. Linda was amazing from the initial communication post-booking until after checkout. Genuine farm hospitality!

Elephant Rest Cottage- 200m from the forest

WernerRating, 5 stars9 months ago
Great cottage in a great location. We visited in winter and the wood burning oven warms up the entire house. Great bedrooms, comfy and clean. The kitchen has everything you need to be self sufficient. The deck looks out over a fantastic magic garden. The garden has all sorts of hidden corners that must be explored. We picked our dinner veggies, grape fruits, oranges and lemons - there is loads more. If we could give this place 6 out of 5 we would have. Loved it

Jersey Cottage

StacyRating, 5 stars53 months ago
What a magical place! Linda is the most accommodating and tentative host we’ve ever had!! It is the perfect place for a family and truly an amazing spot for complete R&R. From the walks around the farm, swimming in the rockpools, the jungle gym, feeding the calves and the recommendation to see the 800+year old tree! What an amazing experience! Wish we had stayed much longer than 2 nights! We will definitely be back for a longer visit!

Heaven on Earth at Minto, Keurboomstrand 🐬

BernadetteRating, 5 stars1 month ago
This place is truly a hidden gem! The breathtaking views of the ocean and surrounding landscape made it feel like a perfect blend of forest and seaside tranquility. The home was fully equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay. Every moment felt like stepping into a masterpiece of nature’s beauty — truly a reflection of God’s artwork. The steps leading to this hidden gem were truly rewarding. Karen was one of the best hosts I’ve ever had the pleasure of dealing with, making me feel like part of her family from the start. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a refreshing escape from daily life, even if you already live near the ocean — this is an entirely unique experience.

Green Hills Forest Lodge - Unit 5 - The Cottage

AngelicaRating, 5 stars4 months ago
We loved staying at Sue’s place! Was a beautiful secluded spot that made us feel like we weren’t in the hustle and bustle of season but still not a very far drive from beach, hikes, restaurants, etc. My senior dog was able to stay and had a little fenced garden for when we had to leave her at the bnb which she loved! Great spot for a family or a few friends :) Sue was also very responsive and gave clear instructions so everything went smoothly! We will definitely want to make this a regular spot we stay ✨ highly recommended x

Sedge Cottage

SarsihRating, 5 stars16 months ago
We enjoyed our stay so much! It was so peaceful and so manageable with two little kids. We woke up to the orioles singing and enjoyed looking for the tortoises every day in the garden. We look forward to staying again!

Thank you Tamaryn for sharing your lovely cottage tucked away with beautiful and peaceful surroundings. My daughter loved the sheep and horses. We had everything we needed. It was peaceful and private. And thank you for the easter treats!

The Cottage @ Wetlands

AmritaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
A very special space, meant for those who enjoy a farm style holiday but with all possible comforts, and more. honestly, I have stayed at many a farm cottages with my kids, but never have I found one like at Nix’ with carefully chosen plates, cups, pottery, and even an air fryer and yoga mats! The kids enjoyed the treehouse and toys. We could not make time to canoe in the river (right at your doorstep) but that will be for the next trip! The only downside was the sound of cars rushing past on the highway. Wish there was a speed limit on those cars.. look forward to being at this farm again

Milkwood Cottage - Seaview Serenity

MelissaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Wir haben zu sechst zwei Nächte im Milkwood Cottage verbracht und uns direkt zuhause gefühlt. Die Unterkunft sah genauso aus wie auf den Fotos und war mit Liebe zum Detail eingerichtet. Bei einem der Zimmer handelt es sich um ein Durchgangszimmer. Ein großer Pluspunkt ist die unmittelbare Lage am Strand. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten sind mit dem Auto ca 10 min entfernt. Zudem war die Kommunikation mit Erick und Alicia sehr unkompliziert, Nachrichten wurden schnell beantwortet. Eine absolute Empfehlung!

Stables - Hillside Guest Farm

TinaRating, 5 stars4 months ago
My family and I had a wonderful stay at Sandra’s place, wished we had booked for longer. The place was clean and well furnished, with many thoughtful supplies such as basic BBQ supplies. Even though we had some initial difficulty in getting to the accommodation due to road conditions, Sandra and her husband were quick to respond and assist. The perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of the city and to experience off-the-grid living. Highly recommended!

Nightjar Inn Knysna

ChanelleRating, 5 stars4 months ago
Gary and Lynne were incredible hosts—kind, attentive, and always mindful of our needs. We had a wonderful time, and our kids absolutely loved the pool, which is beautifully surrounded by nature. The accommodation was spacious, and the bed was incredibly comfortable. Gary also provided us with a detailed itinerary, which was incredibly helpful for exploring Knysna. We’ll definitely be returning!

Beautiful location, cute cottage. Convenient/short drive to restaurants, walkable path into town. WiFi was a bit inconsistent during the afternoons, but otherwise solid. Would stay again.
