It was a priviledge to stay at the Lodge, personal interest, good quality and value for money. Well situated with magnificent viewes. The attention to detail was amazing, making it a pleasure to stay in. We will definitely use it again in future!

the Lodge is in an enviable position overlooking the bay. We had a balcony room next to the breakfast room, and the views - and sunset, were fantastic. The breakfasts were well cooked and catered for and the hosts were very welcoming and helpful. A note of caution, it is at the top of a very steep hill, we could... More

The Guinea Fowl Lodge was situated high up on the hill with a breathtaking view over Knysna. Even if the location was high up, there was a short cut down to the town. The service was excellent and so was the breakfast that was served on the terrace. Our hosts were always willing to give us valuable information on how... More

My wife and I stayed here for four nights in January, 2012, and were extremely impressed with the location, the property and the hosts. The house is situated on the hill overlooking the town and the lagoon, with a large deck showing the lovely views and used for breakfast when weather permits. We had a large room (Room 4), which...

Also during our 4th stay we were very satisfied with Mart and Pete and their staff at this very comfortable and well located lodge. Also some of our German friends and my brother with family have been here. Some of the quiet, comfortable rooms with nice "old style" furniture have a private balcony overlooking the lagoone. When having the full... More

Can not say enough about Mart & Pete the owners of this place. Mart went out of her way to make my friend's birthday memorable with all of her helpful arrangements. Pete cooked fantastic breakfasts. Both were so friendly and easy to talk to that it was sad to say goodbye to them. Felt like we were leaving good friends.... More
