The place was spotless, peaceful, and beautifully situated. The views were stunning, and the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Its location is ideal—just a short walk from the shops, yet tucked away enough to enjoy the quiet.

Very nice place for a short stay. Comfortable enough. All is very new and clean. And a superior view over the lagoon. It was a pity we were just passing through.

Escape to our little slice of paradise, where there’s something for everyone! Traveling with little ones? Our Lagoon View Cottage is just the spot for you! Enjoy total privacy, a jungle gym to keep the kids entertained, your own viewing deck, and jaw-dropping views over the Knysna Lagoon. It’s family time, elevated (literally)! Looking for a romantic getaway? Sunrise Studio or Sunset Studio is calling your name. Built in December 2024, these modern, chic spaces boast luxurious finishes and the ultimate shower experience (seriously, it’s big enough to waltz in). And the view? Straight through the Knysna Heads to the open sea. Breathtaking doesn’t even cover it. Our location is as convenient as it gets: a 5-minute walk to the grocery store, a quick 5-minute drive into Knysna town, and easy access to the N2 Highway for your next adventure. Whether you’re here for the views, the vibe, or just a relaxing break, we’ve got you covered. Come for the comfort, stay for the memories.
Hi there! We’re Chanita (from Thailand) and Jared (from South Africa) – an international couple who’ve made Knysna our happy place for the past 9 years. Both our kids were born here, and we love everything about this beautiful town – from the scenery to the outdoor lifestyle. Our goal? To create a warm, relaxed, and friendly space where you can kick back, unwind, and truly enjoy your time away. We’re all about family, fresh air, and making sure you feel right at home. Whether you need tips on exploring the area or just a friendly chat, we’re always around and happy to help. Nothing brings us more joy than seeing our guests fall in love with our little corner of the world. We can’t wait to welcome you!
Welcome to Upper Old Place – a peaceful, picturesque neighborhood with stunning views of the Knysna Estuary! Our location is a hit with guests thanks to its convenience. The grocery store is just a 5-minute walk away, and it’s only a quick 5-minute drive to the heart of Knysna. Planning an adventure? The N2 highway is right around the corner, making it super easy to explore the area. We’re also a stone’s throw from Leisure Island, a quaint little spot perfect for a relaxing 5km walk or cycle. And don’t miss the jaw-dropping views from the Knysna Heads viewpoint, just 12 minutes away. Quiet, central, and surrounded by beauty – this is the perfect place to start your Knysna adventure!
