Excellent
Kimberly Scott, United Kingdom
29 November 2011
Excellent location, beautiful view from terrace over town/lagoon/heads. Very close to the center of Knysna. Cottage itself was great; comfortable, spacious, good facilities. Satellite TV provides an abundance of channels, great for a wet day! Only two in our party, but would be fine for six using all accommodation. Home from home. Warm welcome by Liz and Neville. Highly recommend, good value for money. Would go back again for sure.
Very nice

An excellent place to stay in Knysna.

Great views, everything you could possibly want tucked into a drawer or cupboard somewhere. It was like staying with friends.
The best holiday and stay ever!

We enjoyed all aspects of the views, facilities and hospitality of Liz and Neville. The wine and sherry was enjoyed with every sunset on the deck. Thank you for all the great memories as well as the recommendation to the Knysna Elephant Park. It will not be forgotten. The 10% discounts at certain places/restaurants were also appreciated and well used. We will see you again in future and have all ready recommend Prospect Cottages to everyone!!
Will be back

Special Offer

More Info

Awesome Autumn / Winter Special

IN JUNE - Pay for three nights and get the fourth night free. Rates are R600 per couple and R100 for each additional guest (maximum of six guests including children/babies). To welcome you to paradise we offer you a free bottle of wine, a fruit bowl, and a decanter of port to sip on on those cool winter evenings. Children most welcome. Knysna is truly the place for all seasons and even more so during June. Come and loosen up in warm, sunny, windless days and cosy evenings in front of the braai fire – the ideal atmosphere to slow down and unwind. These are still 2010 prices.
