Pragtige huis met die mooiste uitsigte!

Dis 'n baie spesiale eiendom reg op die meer. Die huis het soveel verskillende areas om te sit en ontspan, ons groep van nege mense was heeltemal gemaklik. Die huis is ook naby aan Thesen harbour met al die restaurante, en die klein strand is net agter die huis, perfek vir kinders. Die eienaar was baie behulpsaam en het vinnig gehelp met enige navrae al bly sy oorsee. Ons het 'n fantastiese vakansie gehad en ek sal die eiendom hoogs aanbeveel.

Beautiful house with the most beautiful views!

It's a very special property right on the lake. The house has so many different areas to sit and relax, our group of nine was completely comfortable. The house is also close to Thesen harbor with all the restaurants, and the small beach is just behind the house, perfect for children. The owner was very helpful and quickly helped with any queries even though she lives overseas. We had a fantastic holiday and I would highly recommend the property.

It was very nice.

The place is very beautiful and quite to be honest, we thought we won't have neighbors because on the site it doesn't show as if we have one. So the 1st night for us it was bit tense because our plan was to party so yeah at least the picture or there should be a note that says its like a business park and quiet place otherwise the rest was perfect.

Pragtige huis met alles wat jy sou nodig kry en meer.

Die huis het genoeg spasie vir 'n groot groep. Die huis het alles wat mens nodig het om nie net gemaklik daar te woon nie, maar in "luxury". Die uitsig was ook fantasties en dit was net 'n kort stappie na die naaste strand. Die huis is wel nie vreeslik babavriendelik nie, maar ons kon gou boere-plan maak om die trappe en die swembad te beveilig. Die huishulp is ook vreeslik oulik. Ek sal die bestemming beslis aanbeveel vir mense wat met 'n groot groep in Knysna wil woon.

Beautiful home with everything you would need and more.

The house has enough space for a large group. The house has everything one needs to not only live there comfortably, but in "luxury". The view was also fantastic and it was only a short walk to the nearest beach. The house is not terribly baby-friendly, but we were soon able to come up with a farmer's plan to secure the stairs and the pool. The maid is also very cute. I would definitely recommend the destination to people who want to live in Knysna with a large group.

Modern home with high quality amenities. Great views of the Knysna lagoon.

Moderne, luukse huis met ongelooflike uitsig.

Dit was ons tweede keer by Taliesin en ons sal beslis weer daar wil tuis gaan. Die omgewing is ongelooflik mooi en die huis self is ook besonders.

Pragtige uitsig oor die Knysna Lagoon.

Pragtige huis, volledig toegerus. Groot genoeg vir meer as een gesin. Die uitsig is asemrowend. Baie rustig.
