RACT Ventures (Pty) Ltd t/a Friendz Guesthouse
Friendz Guesthouse is a family run Guesthouse that is home away from home. You will meet the family dogs and cats that roam the property. All rooms are comfortable appointed with queen size beds, fridge, micro wave, kettle, air conditioning and free wifi. A hearty breakfast cooked by the owner is waiting for you each morning. Breakfast includes cereals, yogurt, toast, eggs, bacon and sausage. Some days you are able to enjoy fresh homemade bread or muffins. Friendz Guesthouse is located in Old Place, Knysna, up on the hill with sweeping views across the Knysna Lagoon through to the Knysna Heads. We are close to all attractions in Knysna yet far enough out of town to enjoy peace and quiet in a family neighbourhood.
RACT Ventures (Pty) Ltd has been around for a number of years. We currently own and manage a coffee shop in Kwa-Zulu Natal under the name of Friendz Cafe. Friendz Guesthouse is new to the company fold.
Quiet, well established neighbourhood close to all amenities.
