Cute for a short stay

The dog, Reacher, is super friendly. Water is only rain water so must be used sparingly. The little space is great for a short stay but would be cramped for extended periods. Beautiful garden with little pond right on your doorstep, but careful of wasps.

Above expectation!

This was one of the best properties we have stayed at. The attention to detail was phenomenal. There was not one thing we wished could have been better. The view, the gardens, the comfort, the games, the beds - everything was set up with our comfort in mind. We will definitely stay here again if we are in the area.

The property was beautiful and we'll maintained. Checking in was simple and everyone was very friendly. I was blown away by how incredibly beautiful the room was, we were lucky to have the room withe a huge bathroom which includes a bath tub as well as a wonderful shower. The water pressure and temperature were fantastic. We took a walk I to town for a late lunch and a drink - it is very walkable going into town. In the morning we had a delicious breakfast before heading off to our next destination along the garden route. Thank you for a wonderful stay, I hope that we will be back again one day.

We can’t get enough of Woodlands. Second time here and we fell in love with the place even more - despite it raining the entire time! Fantastic place. We can take our dog Ollie and feel so relaxed, what a gem.

The property was very well presented with the furniture and fixings being made and completed by the owners. There were very personal touches which enhanced the experience. The property was situated in the forest which gave a fantastic view of the stars at night. I would highly recommend this property. Excellent value for the price

Es war ganz wundervoll in dieser Unterkunft! Die Zimmer sind mit viel Liebe eingerichtet und gestaltet, ebenso wie die GĂ€rten und der anliegende Trail! Man hat einen unglaublichen Blick auf die WĂ€lder und nachts auf den Sternenhimmel. Unsere Erwartungen wurden ĂŒbertroffen und wir sind froh, dass wir auf dem letzten Halt unserer Reise hierher gefunden haben.

Peaceful stay

The Woodlands is a beautiful and peaceful place to stay. Julie is very easy to work with. I was with a friend on this trip, but often I am a solo traveler. I feel like it is a safe place to stay if you are alone. It also has good wifi.

Fantastiskt stÀlle som har allt!

HelfrÀscht och modernt rum med fullt utrustat kök, soffa och skön sÀng. Helt nytt med rustika handgjorda ursnygga trÀmöbler, till och med tavelramarna. GenomtÀnkt och flott design. En otrolig trÀdgÄrd med damm och massor av vÀxter, hÀrlig murad grill invid pergola med utemöbler och mysig kvÀllsbelysning. Dessutom stor balkong med utsikt över trÀdgÄrden och skogen. En vandringsled i skogen gick frÄn trÀdgÄrden. Bra att organiskt avfall samlades till kompost. Trevlig vÀrd. Fanns kul lekplats för barn. GÄr inte att hitta bÀttre stÀlle. NÀra till en charmig originell restaurang Totties Kitchen. Woodlands rekommenderar vi för alla som vill till Knysna, det Àr inte lÄngt ifrÄn och mycket trevligare Àn att bo pÄ i centrum vid stranden med bara hotell och butiker pÄ rad.

Schöner kann eine Unterkunft kaum sein. Wir haben 3 NĂ€chte in einem wunderbaren Appartement verbracht und wĂ€ren so gerne lĂ€nger geblieben. Traumhaft gelegen, geschmackvoll eingerichtet, der Blick vom Balkon Entspannung pur, der Garten ein blĂŒhender Traum (trotz Winter) und soviele Dinge die man unternehmen kann...
