Description

Forget-me-Not, a 3 Star B and B with two self-catering units, overlooks the restful Knysna lagoon and dramatic Knysna Heads.

This quaint up-market establishment, with its sloping slate roof, dormer windows and gravel drive gives the relaxed 'home from home' environment. Both B&B rooms have full en-suite bathrooms, tea making facilities, ceiling fans, DStv, M-Net and SABC.

All guests have use of the garden and swimming pool. Breakfast is taken on the main deck where you can sit and stare at the ever changing vistas of the lagoon.

All our drinking water is filtered through a 'reverse osmosis purification system' and tastes delicious. Forget-me-not is within easy walking distance of the Waterfront and a short drive to shops and restaurants, beautiful beaches, forests, lakes and much more.

The long list of activities, both on water and inland, can be booked on your behalf by Derek and Mary.

Quiet retreat with excellent view.
Pat Crawshaw, United Kingdom
26 February 2010
A warm welcome when we arrived with everything in place. The views from the back of the unit were amazing. We opted for breakfast on our first morning - this was taken on the main balcony of the house overlooking the garden with the lake in the distance - food was very good and we could have lingered all morning! Being able to relax on loungers in the lovely garden and swim in the big pool was an added bonus. Highly recommended for those wanting the the opportunity to relax.

It's good to stay with small family. It has a good view. I'm was really happy about that.
Highly recommended
Anthony Lort-Phillips, United Kingdom
03 March 2008
We rated "Forget me not" very highly, nothing was too much trouble for our hosts, our quarters were in good shape and kept spotless during our 6 day stay. The self catering flat had been well thought out and had everything one could want. It was attractively decorated and was cleaned daily, with fresh linen provided every 2nd day.
Our Kysna Getaway!

We so enjoyed our stay at Forget-Me-Not and we felt very comfortable indeed. Mary and Derek were lovely hosts and made us feel most welcome. We will certainly recommend to others!
