"Stayed in one of the rondavels which was very comfortable"
Brenda Fairy Knowe Hotel
"Fantastic views, huge cabins and feels very private. The terrace, built in braii and wood fired hot tub made it very special and comfortable. The accommodation itself is very spacious and our family of four fitted very comfortably. The setting is beautiful and extremely well kept. Very close to Wilderness town and gorgeous beaches, but nice to retire to the woodland at the end of a day. The family who run it are so friendly and welcoming, we would highly recommend!"
