Double Dutch B&B is a highly recommended Knysna Bed & Breakfast providing accommodation in 7 guest rooms for tourists visiting the Garden Route region.

About Double Dutch B&B

Knysna is a bustling little town on the banks of the lagoon of the same name. It is guarded by two magnificent sandstone cliffs, The Knysna Heads, which stand over the narrow channel where the lagoon enters the Indian Ocean.

Knysna lies in the heart of the Garden Route between Port Elizabeth and Cape Town and offers you a great opportunity to take a relaxing break from the N2. Just up the hill in Paradise, Double Dutch welcomes you for an unforgettable experience to visit this colonial guesthouse where you can be our guest and feel at home at the same time.

Accommodation

Double Dutch offers magnificent views over the Knysna lagoon and the Knysna Heads into the Indian Ocean. Our establishment is within close walking distance to Knysna's town centre where you will find restaurants and shopping malls. Double Dutch is Dutch, German and English speaking.

Our Suites and Rooms provide you with a bathroom en-suite (bath and separate shower), TV with DSTV, radio, intercom, safe, fridge, double king sized beds, hairdryer, coffee / tea facilities, under floor heating in the bathroom and a comfortable furnished relaxing area.

The Suites all have a veranda and an excellent view over the lagoon and the Knysna Heads and the rooms have fabulous views but no verandah. Guests also have the use of a swimming pool and barbecue in our extended, cultivated garden. Each of our rooms has its own secure parking space on the property.

Please see the individual room descriptions with photographs below, to assist you with your choice.

Breakfast

In the morning we will surprise you with “the Dutch Treat”, a hot and cold breakfast either in our living / dining area besides the swimming pool or in the privacy of your room.

Activities and Attractions

For those in search of adventure, the list is endless. From game reserves, water sports, scuba diving, whale watching, walking trails, golf and mountain biking to extreme outdoor adventures like cage diving, bungy jumping, paragliding, skydiving, helicopter tours and much more.

But you can also relax on our splendid beaches and end an unforgettable stay with a romantic sunset cruise, sipping a sun-downer of your choice, thinking about when you will return to us in future.

Knysna

About Knysna…if you like to go crazy and let yourself go, your place will be at our gay parade, “The Pink Loerie Mardi Gras” in May. As Knysna is well known for its oysters (about two million oysters are produced annually) it will be an excellent choice to join us at the “Oyster Festival” in July and experience our fresh products from the sea.

When you are ready to taste the most beautiful food in combination with the best culinary expertise of Knysna's finest chefs we can set a table for you at “Gastronomica” at the end of September.

Loadshedding Facilities

What is loadshedding? It refers to the temporary suspension of electricity provided by Eskom, South Africa's electricity provider, to reduce consumption and thereby the load on the national grid. To compensate, South African property owners are turning to solar power, inverters with backup batteries or in some cases generators to keep the power on, wherever feasible.

We've stayed in several places in Knysna over the years, all excellent. Double Dutch is now the top of our list after our recent stay there. It is a lovely spot, perfectly planned and organised. You could not wish for a better place to spend a few days in the Knysna area.
