Welcome to Alfred’s Manor, where you’ll stay in the lap of 5-star luxury while kicking back in one of SA’s slower towns, Knysna. Overlooking the Knysna Lagoon from high on hill, Alfred’s Manor has everything you’d expect for a relaxing stay away from the rush of life.
With modern tones in decoration and style, Alfred’s Manor is the epitome of contemporary class. Our staff is attentively present without being intrusive, our rooms offer all you would need with a minimalistic flair and Alfred’s Manor is set in a location that is hard to rival, except by some of the most exotic setting on the planet. You will fall in love with Alfred’s Manor when you stay with us, for many happy returns when visiting the area in future.
Due to its central location, Alfred’s Manor is the ideal base when setting out to explore enchanting Knysna and the greater Garden Route. Not only will guests be able to experience everything the town has to offer, the holiday town of Plettenberg Bay is only a short drive away, as is Sedgefield, which is home to a growing community of artists.
The area offers a great range of restaurants, activities, parks, reserves, rivers, meanders, farm stalls and much much more. Oudtshoorn, the ostrich capital of the world, and home to the Cango Caves is less than an hour’s drive from Knysna.
What a View
Alfred’s Manor is a wonderfully hospitable and very roomy accommodation, the bed was huge, our room had a large balcony looking over the inland sea, the Knysna water front, and through to the heads. There was a swimming pool, but not for us in May. Due to the only wet day on our trip we opted to hire a car and go travelling for the day. We loved the chats with Peter and the team, the history, and general advice, it’s a shame this was the end of our enchanting trip to Africa.
On Tour with Friends through the Country
Alfred’s Manor I should recommend to everybody who is visiting Knysna. The place is very luxurious and very comfortable. All rooms the most beautiful view. We asked to be served with dinner and they offered a braai. Well, that was something special. A real special braai and all was so professionally done.
Best Stay in Knysna
Alfred’s Manor is a luxury guesthouse everything you need is THERE to make you feel comfortable. The food is Greta too and the people most kind. Of we come to Knysna we will come back to Alfred’s Manor.
Topnotch Hospitality
My husband and I stayed at Alfred’s Manor (joined to Bradach Manor) for two nights as part of a two-week South African tour. The manors were set up in the hills and our room looked out on to the large lagoon of Knysna. We both said it was the nicest hotel room we had ever stayed in, large and spacious, beautiful view and very comfy bed. The service from Peter, the manager, was great – he went above and beyond to make sure we, as his guests, had everything we needed. We would definitely return to these manors, highly recommended!
