About the host
Hosted by Rainer Jakobson
I am Rainer, retired since a couple of years. I am from and living in Sweden, close to Gothenburg, on the west-coast. When not in Sweden, I like to spend my time in beautiful Knysna together with my wife and sometimes friends and family from overseas.
Why they chose this property
After spending many vacations in South Africa, starting 2003 we finally felt that we wanted a place of our own.
We had four important criteria for our future holiday home:
- The house should be spacious to have the possibility to accommodate family and friends.
- It should be north-facing (the sun goes north over here) and the possibility of sun all day.
- The house must have a great view.
- There must be a sufficiently spacious pool.
We luckily succeeded with this, it even exceeded our expectations.
The location, Knysna was the obvious choice. Knysna has so much to offer.
For those who love shopping, Knysna offers many interesting shops tucked away around every corner ranging from arts and crafts to traditional products and handcrafted furniture made from indigenous timber.
Beaches, lakes, mountains and rivers provide endless opportunities for the adventure lover. Some of the adventure and outdoor activities available in the area include tree canopy gliding, kloofing, abseiling, boating and hiking.
Golfers will be enthusiastic with the number of golf courses right on the doorstep of our house. Knysna Golf Course and Pezula Course are less than 3 minutes away. Simola Golf Course is within 20 minutes distance.
We know we are lucky to escape the Swedish winter and spend time in amazing Knysna in the beautiful country of South Africa with all their lovely people. With our home we have the opportunity to offer other people to spend time in these relaxing surroundings.
