  "Everything was perfect. Colleen welcomed us and allowed us to check in earlier. She was so helpful with giving us directions and tourist attractions to visit. The breakfast was top class! Colleen and her husband were both very helpful and constantly making sure we were not bored. Wish we could have stayed with them longer. I will definitely return to their Guest House any day!!!"

• "Lovely stay"

  04 January 2012

  "We had a lovely stay at Hide-Away Guest House which is situated very well, just on the border of central town so within easy walking / cycling distance of all attractions, but without being in the main village. Colleen was very helpful with giving us information about the town and surrounding areas, and even assisted us with restaurant reservations. Breakfast which was served to our room patio was great. Room was comfortable and well appointed."

• "Hidden gem with stunning view"

  14 November 2009

  "This is definitely one of the nicest places I stayed during my trip along the Garden Route. I booked a standard room but got upgraded to a room with shared balcony and lagoon view, which is stunning, especially at sunset. The house and rooms are spacious and beautifully decorated with all comforts like tv or minibar. Hosts are very friendly and make you feel really welcome. There also is a swimming pool and private parking. The guest house is located off the N2 into Knysna, when I was there (November 2009) there were a lot of road works going on in and around Knysna, including in front of the guest house, but all this didn't pose problem since it is somewhat hidden behind trees."

• "The Hide Away"

  "We've stayed in many B&B's in the RSA over the last few years and this one definitely takes the cake! The warm personal welcome and coffee on the pool deck with the owners, the private breakfast served on the verandah whilst overlooking the Knysna lagoon and the heads are stunning. The rooms are very comfortable with fully stocked bar fridge and all. The decor is superb and rooms etc. well maintained. The owners have an excellent knowledge of Knysna, what to see, where to eat, where to relax, etc."

  "I am a motorcyclist who travel the country and like to relax after a day on the road. From Cape Town we traveled to Knysna, using all the back roads and after 10 hours and 700Km we eventually stopped at the Hide-Away Guest House. What a lovely reception!<br/>The owner greeted us in the parking area and assisted us with the luggage. Once on the porch, next to a lovely clean pool he offered us something to drink. Before the drinks arrived we each got a cold facecloth to get the heat and sweat off our faces and hands. He left us to enjoy our drinks and then showed us to the rooms. Lovely, spacious and comfortable. A bar fridge, fully stocked, made a trip to town unnecessary. After he recommended a few good restaurants in the area we decided on a barbecue at the Guest House. Everything was ready. Firewood, plates, cutlery etc. <br/><br/>How much more can you ask. Good friends, a fire, something to drink, a lovely view over the lagoon and natures own music."

  "I live in Scotland but you dont give me that option to select I note! Above guest house was excellent. <br/><br/>Cecil and Collen were charming and attentive hosts. <br/><br/>Large room, well furnished, comfortable big bed, extra pillows and blankets, complementary tea and coffee, mini bar: large en-suite bathroom with bath robes provided. <br/><br/>Lovely breakfast taken on verandah outside room with view over lagoon. Welcome glass of sparkling wine. We thoroughtly enjoyed being there. <br/><br/>All SA accomodation was excellent from a cottage for 2 in Addo, to above, to the Whaewatchers Inn in Witsand and The Plumwood Inn in Froenshhook. <br/>"
