Great stay, beautiful views
We loved our stay and to be so close to the sea and hear the waves. Theres a lovely footpath to the heads to watch the waves break. 2 restaurants in very close proximity. A very comfortable stay I. A beautiful apartment!
We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful apartment on the Knysna Eastern Head. The view is incredible, the flat luxuriously appointed, and Mike Elliot, our contact, was very helpful.
