觀景樓莊園飯店

Aan de overkant van Knysna ligt Belvidere. Een voormalig manor is in gebruik als hotel/cottages. Mooi aangelegd. Prima ontbijt. Prachtige tuin. Het personeel is vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Je kunt zo naar t strand in Brenton of naar Knysna.

Questo complesso è formato da tanti cottage, sembra di essere tornati dietro nel tempo ad inizio ‘900. Le casette sono tutte molto belline, molto grandi però con mobilio e suppellettili un po’ vecchi. Anche il tappeto/moquette per terra dava la sensazione di vecchio. La casetta era molto fredda nonostante le giornate miti però per fortuna con 2 termosifoni in dotazione, ci si riscalda. La colazione é stata ottima è servita in un bel prato con vista lago davvero suggestivo. Si trova un po’ fuori dal centro di Knysna quindi l’auto è d’obbligo, ogni casetta tra l’altro ha anche un suo posto auto. Abbiamo poi cenato una sera presso il pub del complesso The Bell visto che eravamo stanchi di uscire. Un po’ angusto, pochi piatti serviti di cui alcuni da prenotare in anticipo ma il fish and chips che abbiamo preso era molto buono. Insomma, non è una località per divertirsi ma più per riposarsi e rilassarsi.

With the best views across the lagoon, Belvidere is perfectly positioned for peace and tranquillity. Beautiful gardens to wonder about in. A good breakfast is served until 10.30am. Room we stayed in (in the converted conference center) was small unfortunately and could have at least a closed cupboard . Great TV selection and a large screen which was super. The Bell serves nice food but they must ensure they stay open during the stated hours. We arrived for dinner one night at 8.20pm to find them closing up so we had to go all the way to Knysna to have something to eat. Walks around Belvidere are fabulous. A must-visit is the Holy Trinity Church.

We went there for Sunday morning breakfast, sat at the rear of the manor with a lovely view over Knysna lagoon. Excellent value breakfast in an amazing setting. Skilfully served by attentive staff. Big thank you for the best breakfast we enjoyed in Knysna.

Belvidere is situated overlooking the lagoon in spectacular gardens. The cottages are spacious, well equipped, and has spacious patios to the front and the back.

Well this place is certainly a hidden gem. An assortment of cottages of 1 and 2 floors. All set around Belvidere House with large oak trees and flowers. Really is a pretty location. Part of the estate has the Bell pub which serves lovely food. Our home had 3 bedrooms over 2 floors, all big with well furnished rooms and a large kitchen with oven , fridge and a washing machine. Also had 2 bathrooms. Met on arrival in reception by Neilen and what a lovely helpful person he is. Breakfast was included with a good choice and the cooked breakfast was delicious. Lincoln was our very attentive server. So if you’re looking for somewhere to stay in the area you will not go far wrong here. The setting itself is something special. The hospitality of South African 🇿🇦 people who are so genuine really stood out here. Belvidere management please recognise the very special employees you have in Nielsen and Lincoln who are a credit to you and brings people like me back again. See you next time. 🇿🇦🇬🇧
