Amazing place! Our room was large, beautiful with a breathtaking view. The staff was very kind and helpful. It’s a tricky road upp to the castle, but once you’re there it’s worth everything. It’s not far from Knysna center, and it’s easy to go anywhere you want in the area.

I actually only wanted to stay three nights. But it turned out to be more. Need I say more? In short: a place to fall in love with. And Wendy played a key role in that. 🙏

Great find, Chez Pierre was a lovely stopover to explore the wider Knysner area. The room is part of a bed and breakfast in the main house. Our family room was private, large, cosy, warm with a lovely bathroom ( bath and shower). The house is buzzing with life.... 4 x Uber cute dogs, a bunny, staff and onsite owners all of which were enjoyed by us and our little people. A short drive to The Heads for amazing views. They also offer Belgium waffles in their public cafe... don't leave without tasting them... Amazing! We had breakfast included, this was lovely too.

Lana, the owner and her staff were remarkable and always attentive. The location, the serenity of listening to the waves crushing down below. The room was also impeccable with allot of attention to detail.

We stayed over for the Knysna half marathon and we were so pleased with everything at Pearl View Guest House. Marycke and Conni are great hosts and the chef prepares delicious breakfasts and dinners - we didn't even leave the guesthouse to go and eat in town. Sundowners on the stoep with the sun setting over the lagoon is a must. We will definitely visit again.
