Location

Head over Hills, Glen View Road, The Heads, Knysna, South Africa

Perched at 22 Glen View Drive, Coney Glen, Knysna, Head Over Hills is a 5-star boutique retreat elegantly perched on the rugged cliffs of the Knysna Heads — a setting that delivers some of the region’s most spectacular ocean and lagoon views.

🛏️ Accommodation & Comfort

  • The property offers 8 en-suite bedrooms and suites, each furnished with premium beds and generous amenities.
  • Guests enjoy private balconies or decks with sea/lagoon views — ideal for sunrise coffees, sunset drinks, or simply relaxing to the sound of waves.
  • Interiors are elegant and comfortable: air-conditioning, Wi-Fi, Smart-TV or DSTV, mini-fridges, and optional luxury touches depending on the room.

🍷 Dining & Leisure

  • A gourmet breakfast each morning is included, served either on the deck or in the dining room — a lovely way to start the day with a view.
  • On request, the in-house kitchen and private chef prepare à la carte lunches or dinners — perfect for a “stay-in” romantic evening or a relaxed meal after exploring Knysna.
  • There’s a beautifully designed, solar-heated rim-flow pool with a wooden sundeck, a stocked bar and a cosy communal lounge — great for unwinding after a day of activities.

🌅 Why It Stands Out

Head Over Hills is more than just accommodation — it’s a full retreat experience. The location offers sweeping views of the Indian Ocean and Knysna Lagoon, making it a top spot for whale and dolphin watching (in season), magical sunsets, or simple seaside tranquillity. It’s ideal for couples, honeymooners, or anyone wanting a luxurious, peaceful base along the Garden Route — far from city noise, yet within easy reach of Knysna’s attractions.
