Lakeside Accommodation

Lakeside is ideally situated within walking distance of Knysna Waterfront, restaurants and town centre, in the beautiful Garden Route area of South Africa's Western Cape. We are positioned across the street from the Knysna lagoon with sweeping views of the waterside and Knysna Heads. At Lakeside you can enjoy a peaceful, relaxing stay in beautiful wooden rooms with en-suite bathrooms, TV, and self-catering facilities.

Area Info

Our town Knysna is one of the Garden Route's best known travel destinations and was recently named as one of the Top 100 Destinations in the World and one of the Top 25 in Africa in the Trip Advisor Travellers Choice Destinations Awards.

It is then not surprising that both France and Denmark listed properties in the area under their top three base camp destinations.

Surrounding Knysna are the towns of Sedgefield, Brenton, Noetzie, Rheenendal and Buffalo Bay. Indigenous forests, fynbos, lakes, rivers and mountains and beautiful coastlines combined with a moderate climate, make the Knysna area a natural Eden for flora and fauna lovers.
