Villa Castollini

Villa Castollini

10/10 Excellent
"A really beautiful property up on the heights with stunning views across the lagoon towards Knysna and a nice balcony to sit out in the evening and lovely gardens and pool ( book the deluxe room it’s worth it !) Huge comfy bed and big bath tub, loved the fluffy robes . Breakfast was delicious with a great choice of fruits, yoghurt, cereals, cheese and ham , breads and a cooked breakfast made to order . Well stocked bar with lovely wine choice and a nice guest sitting room . Two nice restaurants within a 5 minute drive , Butterfly Blue on the beach at Brenton was superb . Knysna was about 12 mins drive away Francois and the Staff could not have been more helpful helping us celebrate our wedding anniversary and we appreciated the extra little touches and we loved the peacefulness yet still being close to the town. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommended a stay here ."
