EVERYTHING!! My hosts were the BEST. Quick response to my late check in, even waited for me and still showed us around. So so friendly. The BnB itself is in a beautiful, tranquil location close to everything at the same time. The rooms are squuuuicky CLEAN and we had the BEST sleep in their firm mattresses (we actually want to get the brand of bed they have that's how comfy it is) We were treated to a beautiful breakfast with a fruit, homemade yogurt and muesli. Followed by a choice of breakfast so delicious, homely and warmly served. We left so inspired by our hosts' hospitality and the friendly staff. Definitely coming back here

Boasting a garden, the guest house is close to several noted attractions, around 1.9 km from Coney Glen Beach, 1.7 km from Knysna Heads and 1.8 km from View Point Eastern Knysna Head.

One on Bollard is more than a home away from home. It’s the beautifully decorated and very comfortably furnished home of Diane and Rob who are the most welcoming hosts we have ever had the pleasure of meeting. They have made every effort to ensure guests are not only comfortable in their home but in Knysna. They offered great advice on places to visit and things to do. Our room was very comfortable and large with a lovely private garden. Their home is on leisure island which is lovely area with beautiful homes and very nice beaches. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love the opportunity to return. Thank you, Diane and Rob for your very kind hospitality.

    Apartment was beautiful and well equipped. Details of loadshedding made very clear. Faith was a great host and met us on arrival at the entrance to the quays. Secure parking underneath with direct access to the flat via stairs. Easy walk to the restaurants and shops, short drive to some lovely beaches. Bedroom faced away from the quays so was quiet

    Lauren was great host, always on top of her communication and enjoyed her recommendations about area. I loved the place. It was quiet, great for resting and a short distance to town and harbor. The bonus has to be the inverter... Loadshedding was never a problem.
