Hacklewood Hill Country House is a five-star establishment set in a tranquil garden in the suburb of Walmer, Port Elizabeth, in the Eastern Cape.

This beautifully restored Victorian Manor House is a classic, featuring handsome antiques, fine furnishings and character-fireplaces. Eight spacious bedrooms (all air-conditioned) have luxuriously large Victorian-style bathrooms. Each bedroom has a private verandah or balcony facing picturesque gardens where birdlife is plentiful. There are two beautifully appointed lounges, a lounge bar and verandah overlooking the swimming pool. Dine in an exclusive restaurant and enjoy gourmet cuisine and excellent vintage wines from an authentic wine cellar.

This is a superb base, either on its own or in tandem with an Eastern Cape safari or a Garden Route holiday. Port Elizabeth is well situated in relation to both these options. Leisure activities in the area include the beach, various watersports, a theatre, an oceanarium, a casino and shopping malls. Gym, hiking and cycling are also on offer in the area.
