  • "Knysna Manor House"

    01 April 2010

    "We had a lovely stay in Knysna, our hosts were very accommodating.The rooms were large and comfortable, and there was ample space for quite a bit of luggage.Breakfasts were traditional but well cooked and when the weather permitted it was very pleasant to be served on the sun deck.Anthony was knowledgeable about the surrounding areas. The only problem we had was the stay was too short, we would certainly recommend KMH and would stay there again if we have the opportunity."
