Knysna Log Home - Brenton on Lake
This is our happy place. We come to Knysna to escape the city rat race. Brenton is 15km from town and it's truly worth it for the authentic Knysna experience of being in a log home overlooking indigenous forest. We go on walks to the jetty and spend time on the water and enjoy the slow peaceful pace of life in Lake Brenton. We love the abundance of nature here, especially the buck and birdlife which we view from the terrace. It's the perfect place to unwind.
