This holiday home has a private pool, a garden and free private parking. The accommodation offers free WiFi throughout the property, as well as a terrace and a family-friendly restaurant.

We loved our holiday here…..the photos are very accurate, and the owner and her property manager were immediately responsive to a couple of minor issues. We did get woken up at 645am one morning by baboons trying to break in to the master bedroom balcony, but we fortunately had our balcony doors locked, as we are familiar with this local issue. Quite entertaining to watch them ambling over the golf course being chased by Security! There is no Welcome Pack provided so you need to stock up at the supermarket before arriving, which was fine for us as we intended to do bbqs and home cooking all week, so we already had half a supermarket with us:-). The house is extremely spacious with breathtaking views, and we can’t wait to return next year!

Amazing accommodation. They had just renovated and added brand new interior, and painted the inside white, which gave it a very modern and luxurious feel to the place. Also, all the beds had electric blankets which was great for the cold nights. Very friendly staff, and superb location. Definitely recommend

    Incredible views over Simola golf course and Knysna heads in the distance. The sunsets are wow. Beautiful, spotless house situated atop a hill in Simola. By far the best accomodation for a group of friends or a family vacation. The house is so spacious - no matter how many guests everyone can get a little corner of it to themselves. Hosts, the owner and the caretaker were super friendly.

    The view was spectacular, overlooking the golf course and seeing the heads in distance. Breakfast was very good. Staff were very friendly. Rooms are nice, especially the lounge and kitchen. Took a lesson with Carel and played golf on the golf course and drove the golf car for the very first time in my life- very satisfied. Highly recommend the lesson with him.
