As the lodge is slightly elevated, the patio offers stunning views of
the lagoon and distant Outeniqua Mountains towards the West. It's just
the place, then, from which to appreciate the ever-changing glows and
fiery streaks of an African sunset.
Bed and breakfast accommodation includes a sumptuous full English spread
served in the privacy of your own room or on the pool patio. The suites
are spacious and tastefully decorated to soothe your senses.
Mere minutes away is arguably one of the finest golf courses in the world:
Pezula. The Knysna Golf Club is a short drive in the opposite direction,
while Simola is within easy reach too.
Nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts are also spoilt for choice, while
those in pursuit of culinary excellence and creative expression will welcome
Knysna and the Garden Route's many top-class restaurants, art galleries
and craft shops.

Animals of the forest and ocean:
The Garden Route remains home to some special creatures: pack your binoculars
and scan the skies for the brilliantly plumed Knysna Loerie, see the elusive
Knysna sea-horse, walk trunk-in-hand with elephants, marvel at the astonishing
array of free-roaming primates at Monkeyland and the largest free-flight
aviary in the world - Birds of Eden, go on an ocean safari to view whales
and dolphins, test your nerve at a reptile park or, for a beautiful experience,
visit an indoor rainforest that is home to thousands of butterflies.

Artists and crafters working in a range of mediums are continually attracted
to and inspired by the natural beauty of this area. The multitude of galleries,
craft/art routes and markets make it easy to find a special memento of
your visit.
Food:
Knysna is synonymous with oysters. Farmed locally and best served fresh!
Browse for interesting eats and home bakes at the town's delis and regular
food markets, or indulge your inner gourmand at any one of the numerous
excellent restaurants - there is something to suit every taste and budget.
A visit is never complete without sampling the local ale too.
Golf in the area:
The Southern Cape's Garden Route has, with good reason, been described
as "the unchallenged golf coast of Africa". It offers an astonishing
array of choices to suit players of any skills level and budget - from
family-friendly mashie courses to championship courses designed by some
of the world's greats. Just as importantly though, is the majestic setting
of these courses. Let play commence
