Vee is a great host and made our stay most enjoyable. Our room was large with a good bathroom and the balcony overlooked the Knysna lagoon. You will get some traffic noise from the N2 road. Located a short drive from the Knysna Waterfront and Thesen Island restaurants. Well positioned for Simola and Pezula golf courses. Highly recommended.

We were moved to Bridgewater by our travel agent after a disasterous experience at another guest house in Kynsa - and it turned out to be a really lucky occurrance!. The manager, Vee, is a real gem, how lucky for the owners to have her there! The place is immaculate, the breakfasts wonderful and the staff charming - nothing too... More

We had a lovely stay at Bridgewater Manor, Vee was very helpful and made us and all the guests very welcome. The breakfasts were great, such a spread, don't know how we didn't put on weight. The room with the view was such a bonus, we could sit and look over the lagoon, everything was lovely. We would certainly recommend... More

Spend 1 night here in december 11, the Bridgewater Manor is a 4 star B*B. The view from some bedrooms and the Lounge/ breakfast room is of the Lagoon and the 'heads' towards the indian ocean. The hostess is very friendly and accomodating. The only negative is that the garden bedroom we had smelled damp. Overall a pleasant stay.

Right from the moment we entered the gate the welcome and care was very warm and friendly. We had booked the honeymoon suite which was stunning, offering great views of Knysna lagoon and the Knysna heads in the distance. The bathroom is great with a large bath and double shower, just perfect for my wife, who was over the moon,... More
