8.0“Stunning, we will definitely be back in summer.”
+The views, the kitchen, how clean it was.
−Although it is pet friendly, it is not secure enough to leave pets outside alone. They have easy access to the forest.

10.0“Pretty House in beautiful surroundings”
+Beautiful house up the hill, with beautiful view of Knysna! We loved staying there with our family, with a nice Braai area and a swimming pool. There is also a little hike you can do!
−Nothing to point out!

9.0“A little piece of heaven!”
+Incredible views, welcoming and friendly host, well decorated and very comfortable. Beautiful place.
−It was warm enough to swim in the pool and this was made available but was not in the best order with some wiring loose in the pool and it was looking very old and worn in places so we weren’t able to make as much use of it as we had hoped. Just needs a bit of an update to be as high quality as the rest of the property.

8.0“Wonderful stay and very relaxing.”
+The location is very relaxing. The 1 bedroom cottage is very large. The couch and the bed were very comfortable. Please not, the TV is in the bedroom. Not in the lounge. Same goes for the fire place. I thought it was very thoughtful to have some wood and fire lighters available. Not sure if they were provided by the host or the previous guests though. There is a lot information available of what things to do.
−A manual to tell us how the operated the stove, since it didn't want to heat up. We could have reached out to ask, but we used the frying pan instead. Problem was... the croissants got a bit burnt. The green pool which also had a dirty floor. Would have been nice to have a warning about that before our arrival. Fortunately we were able to go home for a swim. We had severe loadshedding that weekend. There weren't many lights/lightbulbs that would give light during loadshedding at night. We were lucky that we did bring some ourselves. Just be aware to bring a few items for that, otherwise you might be stuck in the dark.

10.0“Quiet and huge house away from the croud”
+Stunning and ns peaceful house super well equipped with a beautiful view Big garden with a little trail in the forest. Books for children available Very nice host who offered to change sheets and towels regularly as we staying a long period of time.
−The pool didn’t seem to be maintained properly as the water wasn’t as translucide as it should be and lots of particules were floating (leafs, insects, etc). We had to clean it ourselves. Overall the house was clean however we noticed lots of dog/cats hair upon arrival . The owner sent the cleaning lady to clean who said she only had a broom (to clean approx 80-100m2). Repairing the vaccuum may be necessary ;)
