An elegant single storey architectural jewel, housing a large open plan living area, eight exquisite en-suite bedrooms, and secure outside pool deck with spectacular views of the Knysna Heads and Knysna Golf Course. Each room is classic and modern in design with its own private entrance, en-suite bathroom with shower, flat-screen TV with satellite channels, free WiFi, free toiletries, hairdryer, electronic safe, mini fridge, tea and coffee facilities and private verandah with table and chairs to enjoy the pristine views. The well-known Knysna Golf Course is only 50 meters away and we are a mere 10-minute drive from the famous Knysna Heads and Forest, Knysna Waterfront and Simola Golf Course. The Greens is ideal for business or leisure travellers looking for a serene, relaxing and pristine environment.
Guests staying at The Greens can enjoy a lazy afternoon relaxing by the pool overlooking the pristine gardens on the furniture provided or take a dip on the warm summer days. Guests also have access to the barbeque facilities by the garden and pool area.
Knysna is a town with over 50 000 inhabitants in the Western Cape Province of South Africa and is part of the Garden Route. The town is primarily built on the northern shore of a large warm-water estuary, known as the Knysna Lagoon, which is fed by the Knysna River. The estuary opens to the ocean after passing between two large headlands. These are popularly known as "The Heads", and have become infamous due to the loss of boats and fishermen passing through their treacherous and unpredictable waters. Near them are geological formations, known locally as "The Map Stones."
