A stunning property in a world class location.
The designer property is ideally situated within the world class Pezula Private Estate where you can relax away from the stresses of life in complete tranquillity and security. The house has wonderful living and outdoor space to allow large groups to spread out and enjoy their own peaceful areas. The accommodation is luxurious, beautiful en suites, and the beds appeared new and very comfortable. The views from the windows capture the essence of the surrounding nature and you're sure to see plenty of wildlife if you care to stand and look. It's a short drive to the town of Knysna ( but I wouldn't suggest walking unless you're fit!) and the lagoon, and even shorter to the wonderful Pezula golf course which you can glimpse from a bedroom window. I couldn't fault the property and hope to return again.

A stunning 5 star property within a peaceful and secure private estate
We had an absolutely fantastic holiday staying at this beautiful, spacious house within the Pezula estate. The accommodation exceeded my expectations and was immaculately presented. We enjoyed the peaceful environment and the lovely views. We attended Pezula hotel gym and made use of their spa facilties and gourmet restaurant, we also played tennis. We found the location within easy distance of Knysna and the attractions along the The Garden route. We enjoyed the walks within the Pezula estate and down to the private beaches. We are definitely planning to return next time with the whole family!

Blissful
A fantastic house that is great for entertaining and relaxing. Pezula Private Estate is something special. We were met by the villa manager at the gate to Pezula who kindly showed us the property and how everything worked. The property was clean and presentable. There are a few things that require some maintenance and I found the beds a little uncomfortable. I would certainly recommend the property to friends and family.

Why they chose this property

Greenland's House on Pezula Private Estate is like no other property I have ever seen. I visited and stayed at the house myself in April 2012 and was amazed by architectural design and standard of finish the owner David has achieved. The property is built within the Pezula Estate which also forms part of a nature reserve with a selection of wildlife inhabiting here. The property also backs onto the Pezula Championship Golf Course making it very popular with keen golfers from around the world.
