Guest House The Lazy Lion in Knysna provides adults-only accommodation with pool with a view, a garden and a shared lounge. Private parking is available on site at this recently renovated property. The bed and breakfast offers mountain views, a picnic area, a 24-hour front desk, and free WiFi is available throughout the property. We stayed at Lazy Lion for two nights. The setup was really comfortable and the host made it an incredible experience. They shared their insights on Knysna and South Africa and helped us refine our itenary for better. Interior was very interesting and the room was perfect with an amazing view of “Two Heads”. We loved our morning and evening teas on the balcony. The Breakfast menu was thoughtful of our vegan lifestyle. My wife became a full fan of their home prepared granola.

The room has everything you need and is very pleasing to the eye. Very personal welcome treats and great list of things to do in the area too. There is also a pool but we didn't have a chance to use it sadly. Felt very safe and secure with car behind electric gate. It was lovely to chat to the hosts and to say hello to their lovely English bulldog, Honey. We'll definitely be back if visiting Plett again!
