Falcons View Manor  

Perched on Thesen Hill with sweeping Knysna Lagoon views, this boutique hotel sits less than 1 km from central Knysna and Knysna Harbour. It’s an easy base for exploring the Knysna Heads and the National Lakes Area, with Simola Golf Club roughly 5 km away and Plettenberg Bay Airport about 38 km from the manor.

Falcons View Manor mixes Victorian charm with a homely, intimate vibe — think a veranda that frames lagoon sunsets and well‑manicured gardens with a tranquil tea garden. Rooms are stylish and air‑conditioned, each with digital TV, hot‑drink facilities, an en‑suite, hairdryer and a safety deposit box; some rooms offer bathrobes for extra comfort.

Enjoy an outdoor pool, a cozy library and comfortable lounges for quiet reading. The hotel offers free Wi‑Fi throughout, on‑site parking, an elevator, concierge service and guest laundry/ironing and safe‑deposit facilities. Sip a sundowner on the Victorian veranda and wander the lush gardens for lagoon breezes.

Free Wi‑Fi throughout the property and a guest computer in the public area make it easy to check emails and stay connected.

A full English breakfast is served each morning in the elegant dining room. Lunch and dinner feature a varied international menu, with alfresco options in the peaceful Tea Garden when the weather allows. Finish the evening with a bottle from the wine cellar and a nightcap at the bar.
