Katrin & Joachim

Our guesthouse is situated in a suburb of Knysna called Welbedacht. Amazing bird life is attracted to our big garden. Our pool area is a great place to relax and swim without leaving the Lodge. Family friendly. Affordable. For the convenience of our guests we have a power supply back-up system in place using photovoltaic energy.

Badger’s Lodge is owner run. We, Katrin & Joachim, are looking forward to welcome you at our home. Ours is a guest house with personal touch. We like travelling through Africa and love to share our guests' holiday experiences.

We are situated in a quiet suburb of Knysna with open spaces and lots of bushes and trees.
