Ek en die familie is so rukkie terug op 'n bederf vakansie af Knysna toe en my neef Gert het vir ons vertel van Wayside se goeie diens en lekker geriewe. Liewe genade was dit nou 'n lekker week by die see gewees. Die mense daar is super vriendelik en die kamers is baie deftig. Baie dankie mense vir die lekker tyd wat ons by julle gehad het. Ons sal belsis weer kom oor bly. Frik en Hanna

Lovely and warm. This is the perfect holiday destination. There is so much to do around the area and the farm free just gives you a chance to breathe. I have set up my parents here when they came to visit and they absolutely loved their stay. They loved the friendly environment and world class service. The grounds are amazing as well.

ABOUT US

Knysna’s Wayside Inn has been a landmark in the center of this well-known holiday town since its humble beginnings in the early 1990’s. The development of Pledge Square was a major improvement for Knysna, and brought a vibey and lively atmosphere to this previously sleepy part of town. Now, a mere 20-something years later, Pledge Square is still known for its restaurants and pubs, with quaint shops open during the day.

The Wayside Inn’s central location is to this date a major attraction for those who wish to walk into town for a drink or bite to eat. The famous Knysna Waterfront, and nearby Thesen Island, with its ferry trips on the Knysna Lagoon, sailing charters for those more romantically inclined, and whale watching trips going through the famous Knysna Heads (in season: June to November mostly) are all within walking distance.

My team and I are here to welcome you, and make your stay as comfortable and memorable as possible. We look forward to having you as our guests!
