The accommodation was very comfortable. Home away from home with excellent views in close proximity to nature. Leigh and Emanuel were very welcoming. The indoor fireplace was lovely on cold nights. All activities were just a short drive away

The Gatehouse is a very comfortable place where you can completely relax. It has everything you need. The view of the lake and Knysna is so tranquil. We miss the views already! Lee, Feli and Emmanuel were ready to help us every time we needed them. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!
