Absolutely worth it!

The room was even more than what we expected. Michelle is such a pleasant host. Went out of her way to make the 1 night stay really comfortable and was so accommodating as we arrived really latein the evening. Would definitely recommend this place for your Knysna stay.

Bekostigbaar.

Baie netjies en gerieflik. 'n Mikrogolfoond sou lekker gewees het om vinnig iets warm te maak. Bietjie gesukkel met warm water die laaste oggend. Michelle was nie tuis, skoonmaker het ons ontvang. Chris eers die oggend daarna ontmoet. Maar andersins, baie lekker gekuier.

Affordable.

Very neat and comfortable. A microwave oven would have been nice to heat something up quickly. A little trouble with hot water the last morning. Michelle was not at home, cleaner received us. Didn't meet Chris until the morning after. But otherwise, very nice visit.

Shell's Corner Cottage 's response

Hello Zelda,

Thank you for your review of our property. I am glad to read that you found the space neat and comfortable. We have now made a microwave oven available in the unit.

Grace, our helper was available on your day of arrival as I was away helping our daughter move house. As much as I always like to be available to meet and assist our guests, I made a point of communicating with you that I would be away, and throughout your stay, we were communicating via WhatsApp.

Regarding the hot water on your last day, I once again apologise for the short delay when we had to switch over the gas bottles.

All in all, thank you again for your review. We do hope to be able to welcome you back soon!

Warm Regards

Shell's Corner Cottage

Great spot and had everything I needed for my 2 night stay.

The place was friendly and clean. A nice comfortable bed and a hot shower are all I need most of the time and Shell's had this covered. Perhaps a fan in the room would have helped as it was very hot the weekend I stayed.

The place was easy to find. Michelle was a great host and kind enough to wait for our late arrival. The place was neat, looks updated and was well-equipped. The water bottles (hot and cold) were a nice touch. No water views but close, a matter of minutes. YouTube, Netflix, plenty of cupboard storage, also loved the picnic table outside. Will be back or recommend.

Very clean and tidy house, friendly host and overall nice stay.

Very clean house, the only thing that bothered us was how the shower was built. It makes the entire bathroom floor wet and is not very practical. Also, unfortunately, did not have warm water on our first night there. The host was very friendly. Overall good stay.

Shell's Corner Cottage 's response

Thank you for your review of our space. We always enjoy feedback from our guests.

I am sorry to read that you found the bathroom impractical. We have designed it as such to allow for our physically disabled guests, who generally require more open and free space. Had you informed me that there was excess water in the bathroom, I would have been more than happy as your host to clean it up for you.

During the week of your stay, we had been experiencing many hours of load-shedding each day. It stands to reason then that without electricity we would experience a lack of basic services. The warm water, or lack thereof, was beyond our control but was rectified as early as possible the next morning.

In addressing your 3-stars relating to security. Our facility is situated in a very safe and secure neighbourhood. The accommodation itself has bars on the windows as well as a lockable trellidoor on the sliding door. We also have armed-response linked security beams which are switched on at night for added security. We are very aware that guests are security conscious and thus have taken the measures above.

Once again, we thank you for booking with us and for leaving your review.

Kind Regards,

Shell's Corner Cottage Knysna

Ons het net een nag daar oornag aangesien my eggenoot daar moes optree.

Dit wat ons wel ervaar het, was egter mooi en goed. Ontvangs was vriendelik en alles was skoon, netjies en voldoende. Die gasvrou het selfs hulle motorhuis aangebied vir parkeerplek aangesien ons motor gelaai was met duursame toerusting. Baie dankie daarvoor.

We only spent one night there as my husband had to perform there.

However, what we did experience was beautiful and good. Reception was friendly and everything was clean, tidy and sufficient. The hostess even offered their garage for parking as our car was loaded with durable equipment. Thank you very much for that.

Skoon en gemaklik.

Ons was doodmoeg toe ons daar aankom, die gasvrou het ons dadelik gehelp en gewys na ons skoon kamer met die mooiste badkamer. Die kamer het sy eie balkon ook gehad waar ons die oggend lekker koffie kom drink. Sal aanbeveel.

Comfortable and modern place, friendly owner, good location and value for money.

The place is really great to stay at. Owner is very friendly and welcoming. We stayed in the budget-stay option. Driveway parking. Lovely room with en-suite bathroom, coffee making facilities, TV with Netflix and Wi-Fi, own section of the balcony. Very cozy. Good value for money. Will be back again.

I was disappointed because we had no cooking facilities and no cupboard or anything to put my clothes in. We had to live out of our suitcases.

The DStv never worked so we only had Netflix.

We are sorry that you were disappointed.

Our listing indicates a microwave oven only, which is what you were provided with in the room, as well as tea- and coffee-making facilities.

Our listing does not indicate that DStv is available for viewing - the application is available, provided you have your own code with you. We hope that you enjoyed the Netflix.

Your stay was in the Knysna budget stay, where we have gone to lengths to describe what the provisions in this facility are.

Ons was voor ons aankoms geskakel en hartlik ontvang.

Die woonplek/kamer is baie mooi, skoon en netjies, maar dit is nie goed toegerus vir selfsorg nie, ons moes die huis se kombuis gebruik. Daar is wel 'n cottage met yskas, stofie ens. maar ander gaste het daar gebly. Die stort in die bad is nie gerieflik vir ouer persone nie.

We were contacted before our arrival and received warmly.

The living place/room is very nice, clean and tidy, but it is not well equipped for self-catering, we had to use the house's kitchen. There is a cottage with a fridge, stove etc. but other guests stayed there. The shower in the bathtub is not convenient for older people.

Shell's Corner Cottage 's response

Thanks for your review. We noted your security concern. Our listing does state that parking is on-street. Had you mentioned that you were not comfortable with this, we certainly would have made our lock-up garage available for your use during your stay (as we have done for prior guests). I am sure you gathered that our suburb is extremely safe and many of our neighbours also park on the street. Furthermore, the armed-response linked security beams are turned on at night for added security. Our dogs are kept indoors at night too and are very quick to alert us of any issues.

It was a pleasure meeting you and hope that we can look forward to welcoming you back soon!
