Excellent host and breakfast in a great part of Knysna. Debbie is a welcoming host, and the headlands is the perfect location.

An incredible stay and experience with the greatest view in the area! We were greeted by the incredible management team upon arrival, when they heard we were on our honeymoon they graciously offered us an upgrade to their larger suite, we appreciated their generosity tremendously. You can tell they care for their guests like they are family and will go above and beyond to ensure a great trip with great recommendations for the area. One night was not enough and would definitely return. I would 100% recommend Headlands House for your next stay!

Perfectly located accommodation with a beautiful view. Everything about the accomodation was perfect, reception, service, breakfast. We were passing through Knynsa from Cape Town and we only stayed for one day, we were very impressed. The accommodation exceeded the our expectations. My partner loved the coffee as he has been company the bad coffee he had the whole trip. We would definitely book here when we are in Knynsa. Loved it

We had a fabulous stay at Headlands House, so good we extended our stay for an extra couple of nights. Debbie was wonderful - super friendly and very helpful with everything from local recommendations to serving our breakfast! The location is fantastic too, with a view from every room. Highly recommended!

A spectacular stay with the most stunning view of the Knysna Heads. Incredibly comfortable accommodation with thoughtful touches (we loved the welcome crunchies)! Wonderful, attentive care provided by Debbie and staff. Overall a very memorable weekend.

Wir wurden sehr herzlich von Debbie empfangen und fühlten uns sofort sehr wohl und daheim. Wir hatten 4 Nächte gebucht und waren uns einig, dass wir gerne noch etwas länger geblieben wären. Das Headlands House hat nicht nur eine ruhige und tolle Lage, auch die Zimmer und die restlichen Räumlichkeiten sind wehr gepflegt und geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Debbie stand uns stets mit Rat und Tat zur Verfügung, sei es um uns ein Restaurant oder eine Ausflugsziel zu empfehlen. So macht Urlaub doppelt Spass.

Gorgeous stay with stunning views. A breakfast that will last you all day and the truly delightful Chrystal and Debbie looking after you. We were glad to have stayed a little further out from Knysna to enjoy the views. Highly recommended.
