    The spot was perfect for my needs and close to my business meeting. The view and tranquil setting with limited traffic in the area made my day. Thank you, Michelle, for hosting me.

    We didn't actually stay at Shells Corner Cottage because the host had unexpectedly to go away the day of the arrival. She arranged another lodging for us at her own expense. Very professional and means very well. I highly recommend her accommodation.

The property has a separate alarm/ panic button and trespasser beam system to ensure the safety of our visitors. We are linked to the local Armed Response Company.
Our little holiday cottage is newly built and situated in the gorgeous town of Knysna. We are 5 kms away from the nearest beach. My husband is a paraplegic and so our experience with wheelchair accessibility within the tourism sector is vast. We have tried our very best to create a spacious, accessible space. We are very close to the Knysna Life Private Hospital. This makes it a convenient place for families visiting loved ones or those who are convalescing. We love living in our very own paradise and look forward to welcoming you, We can provide a camp cot for infants on request.
Hunters Home is a very quiet and peaceful neighbourhood, with both young and old families. Many of our neighbours work from home and we all keep a watchful eye out for each other. The bird life around us is fantastic and you will fall asleep to the peaceful sound of frogs clicking at night.
