Headlands House Guest Lodge

Debby and her team were so friendly and helpful. They made our stay a wonderful experience. We did not want to leave.

We had such a wonderful stay at Headlands House recently now in July. We were so warmly welcomed by our lovely hostess Crystal upon arrival who gave us a tour of the house and some recommendations of places to go eat and explore. Very much appreciated as this was our first time in Knysna. We have a 3 month old baby, so stayed in the Fynbos room which had ample space for a camp cot and us to stay comfortably in the room. There is a camp cot on request for a small additional fee for which was perfect for us as we didn’t need to travel with our own one. The views are truly stunning from that room and it was so nice being able to see the heads so clearly. The weather was a little wet when we were there, so we spent some time cozied up in our room watching the sea which was nice and relaxing. The rooms have heaters in them, and additional blankets and hot water bottles are provided too so we were comfortable and warm. I would also highly recommend the delicious homemade crunchies that are in the room for you upon arrival - absolutely delicious! Breakfast each morning was a delicious home cooked meal (we had the jungle oats and English breakfast on day one, and the jungle oats and French toast on day two) which just started our day off so well. Debbie was also so kind as to hold onto our little one for a few moments so we could have a bite to eat, really appreciated that personal touch. The guesthouse has parking outside the house so no need to park and walk far, and is very safe. All in all, would highly recommend staying here, the team are lovely, the rooms are spacious and comfortable and the location is perfect.

Excellent. Fantastic views, warm welcome, very accommodating. Friendly and obliging staff. Highly recommended. Would return in the future. Nothing more to say. I’m now padding this out as I have to write 200 characters minimum. Excellent again

Headlands House is just as it describes and as in the many reviews that preceded ours. It is a clean, comfortable and welcoming place to stay in Knysna with great views and very welcoming and helpful staff.

Absolutely loved my stay at Headlands House. The place has an incredible sea view and Debbie’s hospitality is just so warm & lovely. The breakfast with the view by the fire place was a highlight. Debbie is so lovely, friendly & has the best recommendations of restaurants & even a doctor, who we had to visit while one of us was sick.

Home away from home with amazing hosts (Crystal and Debbie), delicious home made breakfasts, stunning views all around, just like the pictures! We'll be back.
