Headlands House Guest Lodge

Absolutely loved my stay at Headlands House. The place has an incredible sea view and Debbie’s hospitality is just so warm & lovely. The breakfast with the view by the fire place was a highlight. Debbie is so lovely, friendly & has the best recommendations of restaurants & even a doctor, who we had to visit while one of us was sick.

We only slept for 1 night, the views from the Elephant Room were amazing. The stuff in the breakfast area was welcoming and friendly. The only thing we didn't like was the bathroom with no individual shower. The shower head is inside the bathtub which makes it impossible for 2 to shower together, also it's a bit slippery inside the bathtub and if you're big you'll end up splattering the whole floor. Also, I'm not sure why but everytime the people in the adjacent room open the wardrobe it sounds like they are in your room.

We stay in Elephant room, and was unbelivable. The view is even better than the one you can see in the pictures. It is one of the most incredible views from a room than I ever has seen. The decoration of the room, simple and beutifull. The breakfast, excellent, and the attention og the girl responsable, was unbeatable. I will come back for sure, and I recomend to eveybody to stay there.

We had a short stay in Headlands house, but really enjoyed the house. It was very clean. The team is very nice and friendly and do what ever they can to let you enjoy! They booked boat trips for us and are very helpfull. Also the breakfast was super.

LIKED: The views are spectacular. The amenities are wonderful. The room and house was clean and the staff I communicated with friendly and helpful. There was enough info provided should I not have had an idea what to do. I noticed careful attention to such details provided to me You can take a walk and in less than five minutes reach a place where you can look at various angles of the lagoon and the spectacular view towards the sea. On a clear night you see the beautiful lights of Knysna. I loved the fact that there was even provision made for in case there is a blackout (electricity). My room included a jaccuzi and that was something I have not experienced before, at least never at any residence of my own, so this was an added bonus I really appreciated. The outdoor pool was beautifully lit by times with a beautiful blue light. The garden looked well kept..The breakfast was good and tasty. There were security cameras all around that added some sense of safety The lovely fireplace and in-room heating was enough to drive out the winter chills. There was some coffee and tea available for that nice relaxing home away from home experience. Ps. I appreciated the "crunches" (day 1) and the attention to detail, like a towel (available) even for going to the beach. All the keys and locks worked (yes, sometimes little details like that can also annoy or please guests) What I liked a bit less: · Such a great view does come at a price. If you don't know the steep roads surrounding the house you might get a little confused. Also steep roads mean that you cannot comfortably walk in all directions with ease. Also the beautiful house took a little physical effort to get my suitcase up the stairs But this should be expected in ANY house around the "heads" and was a small discomfort (and the view made up for it all) But let's be fair: Any high-lying place in such a beautiful area will have narrow and steep roads. As for the steps to my room:... They were not endless and I am sure had I asked for help due to back problems someone would have helped me!

A very enjoyable stay. The staff where are all very friendly and helpful. The views are amazing and nice & clean.
