Yellowwood Lodge is a place very much at the heart of knysna. It was close enough for us to allow our older kidz to go about and do their own thing whilst at the same time us having peace of mind that they were safe. We were minutes from the beach and had the best climate possible. We enjoyed the... more

My boyfriend and I have just experienced some heavy family time - so some time alone with a bit of sun, sightseeing and walks on the beach seemed like just the ticket. Yellowwood Lodge with its prime position allowed us to enjoy walks about the town, experience some sailing and leisure walks along the beach. Our weekend away was just... more

We enjoyed two nights here. Ernest was charming and made us most welcome. Our room had delightful views across Knysna Lagoon. Very central to walk into Knysna. Highly recommended! more

Yellowwood Lodge is pleasant enough, but very much has the atmosphere of a 70s B&B in Blackpool or Torquay. The reception we had was friendly enough and the rooms were reasonably comfortable, but the accommodation felt quite dated and was not somewhere to spend too much time. Particularly off-putting was the ancient combination gas boiler in the bathroom, which seemed... more

we have often gone to south africa to visit family, and visiting knysna is our little treat. we love the lagoon and the vibrant vibe of the town. Yellowwood lodge has been our usual spot. the comfort of having a place walking distance from town and with such a loving family running the place simply does it for us. we... more

My husband and I stayed here late last year (06/07) for four nights and were given the top room in the property at the front of the house. The views of the heads and lagoon were spectacular, and although the property was in need of some updating, it's location to the town centre was what we were after. This year... more

We stayed at the Yellowwood Lodge in the separate unit which was perfect for our family of 4. Although I have to admit that on very close inspection, there was some dampness in the floorboards of the bathroom and around the windows, we were happy with our room. The tiles in the actual shower/bathtub stall are a bit crooked but... more

I stayed at this B&B in January 2006 and was so disappointed with the accomodations that were provided that I was compelled to write my very first review in this forum. The website for this place looked great but when we arrived our rooms weren't in the lovely old house shown on the internet but in a 1970's addition that... more
