Almost halfway between Cape Town and Gqeberha (Port Elizabeth) on the internationally renowned Garden Route and nestled between mountains and golden beaches, you will find one of South Africa's most sought-after holiday destinations, the seaside village of Wilderness. Wilderness is only 25 kilometres from the well-served George Airport, gateway to the Garden Route. With its spellbinding beauty and endless beaches, it is a most sought-after destination in South Africa.
Idyllically situated between mountains and beaches, with a chain of tranquil lakes locked-in between, Wilderness is a unique holiday destination. Together with its rivers and lakes, surrounding lush forests and 18 kilometres of coastline, Wilderness forms part of the Garden Route National Park.
Wilderness Manor is an elegant and refined guest house overlooking the Wilderness Lagoon, in the scenic village of Wilderness. Step out of the front door and cross the road onto the boardwalk for an easy and safe stroll to golden beaches, restaurants and village shops.
Owners Gerald and JD provide upmarket, luxury accommodation and personal, but discreet service in a refined environment. Guests find Wilderness Manor a tranquil base from which to explore the idyllic surroundings of the lakes area and Garden Route towns like Knysna, Plettenberg Bay and Mossel Bay, as well as Oudtshoorn in the Klein Karoo. A three or four night stay is ideal to explore the Garden Route.
Wilderness Manor is luxuriously decorated in an African colonial style with fine oriental rugs, heirlooms, antiques, art and collectables which contribute to a refined and stylish ambience. Relax in the spacious Guest Lounge or Reading Lounge with superb views from the balconies overlooking the lagoon.
Retire to the serenity of four stylish en-suite bedrooms: three luxury and spacious Lagoon Facing Rooms on the second floor with breathtaking views of the lagoon and one Garden Room on the ground floor with a private garden and patio.
Each bedroom at Wilderness Manor offers:
• Quiet nights with birdsong in the mornings
• En-suite bathroom with a separate bath & shower, double hand basins and heated towel rails
• White percale bed linen, towels and bathrobes
• 32” LCD TV, including selected satellite channels
• Telephone
• Hairdryer
• In-room safe
• Ceiling fan / heater
• Bar fridge
• Magazines
• Tea / coffee tray
Look forward to our Continental buffet and English breakfast served in our breakfast room, opening onto a sunny patio overlooking the indigenous forest where the Knysna Loerie often comes to feed...
Whether you are passionate about water sports, hiking, extreme adventure or animal encounters, the Garden Route and Klein Karoo has something for you.

9 guests' feedbackWould definitely recommend to everyone, best time ever! You are spoiled from your shoes!
Best, cleanest guesthouse I've ever stayed at. Gerald and JD made me feel so welcome. They really went the extra mile and went out of their way to accommodate me. Felt like home. Best experience ever!
Recommend for a lovely stay and relaxation well positioned. Lovely couple who are very attentive to their guests.
As already mentioned, the service was particularly good. Rooms are always clean. Towels and other bathroom items are replaced every day, more than once. Breakfast was very nice and the hosts' suggestions for lunch and dinner were very good every time. The rooms themselves are very nice and you can rest and relax very well. We had no idea before our visit that the guest house was one of the best in the country, but we both agree that you can easily see why.
Absolutely excellent. Gerald and JD go the extra mile and every guest is treated like royalty. I have never experienced another place to stay on the level, and the breakfast is excellent.
See star rating.
The Wilderness Manor lives up to its star rating and would easily qualify as a five-star destination in our opinion. The rooms are spacious and very clean and are cleaned regularly. Full bathrooms (bath and shower) were in our room and crisp white towels are provided which are changed regularly. There is a beautiful view of the Touws River. Delicious breakfast is served and the hosts are very friendly, helpful and always present on the premises themselves. It's the place to stay in Wilderness and we will definitely go there again.
We had a great stay at Wilderness Manor. Room was very neat and spotless. A very central location from which to explore the Garden Route. Our host was very friendly and helpful. Will definitely recommend.
Highly recommended. Fantastic service and amazing guest house.
