The room itself had the most fantastic views of the Heads and is set in a beautifully manicured garden. DD had a homely feel due to the attentiveness and welcoming spirit of the hosts and... More

We were advised by friends to reconsider the ending to our holiday, and are we glad we did. Knysna is stunning, but what also made our 2 nights there special was the welcome we received from Kate and Nathalie. Our room was the Oystercatcher suite, with a stunning view across to The Heads. Fantastic restaurant recommendations for both nights, pleased... More

Excellent last 3 nights in South Africa and Double Dutch was a great spot to explore the surrounding area around Knysna and spoil ourselves a little. Great rooms, fantastic bath, scrummy breakfasts and loads of excellent recommendations from our wonderful hosts. Nothing was too much trouble. Hope your business just keeps on growing. Have fun - Pippa & Julie x

I spent 5 days in march at Double Dutch guest house in Knysna. Excellent accommodation with attention to detail, particularly in the bedrooms. Breakfasts are also very tasty and imaginative. Both Nathalie and Kate are excellent hosts with excellent knowledge of local activities. Will definitely recommend to friends and family. Thank you so much for the warm hospitality.
