Mike the owner was very helpful and patient about my enquiries for the area. His wife is a tremendous cook and equally amenable..Highly recommended is the offer of a pizza in the evening totally delicious. The lodging has utmost rustic charm. Such a great relaxing cheery vibe - go for it ##### Charlie Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Charlie 15 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The ideal place to stay on the Garden Route as approximately halfway.However more importantly The Trading Place exudes a beautiful calm rustic charm, exemplifed by the host. The most delicious breakfast awaits you at a time of your choce, the bread is homemade. Highly recommended is their preordered pizza in the evening. The host is coincidentally the guide for the river trips, so has exceptional knowledge on the nature of the area. If all this attracts you if you are considering being based in the Wilderness area I would urge you to stay here. ##### Charlie Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### william 1 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Lovely ##### william Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ulrich 29 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities On our way from Cape Town to the wonderful Pure Nature Lodge in Paterson we stopped twice at The Old Trading Post for one night stop-over.

Nice location, good walk nearby. About 8km cycle ride to the centre of Wilderness. I was able to hire a good mountain bike. Very good breakfast. Friendly and helpful owners ##### Peter ### 8/10 Good #### Per, Danmark 24 Jan 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### En lille perle for naturelskere Vi havde et ønske om at besøge Wilderness National Park. Da The Old Trading Post Guest House ligger ideelt tæt på National Parken, valgte vi stedet som udgangspunkt for vores besøg. Stedets værtspar og deres 2 søde hunde var en glædelig oplevelse i sig selv. Vil du bo på landet i Sydafrika i rolige omgivelser og et hyggeligt miljø, skal du lægge vejen forbi netop dette sted. Vi var så heldige, at værten havde en bådfart i Wilderness National Park, som vi benyttede os af og fik en stor oplevelse om parkens fauna og fugleliv på sejlturen. ##### Per ### 10/10 Excellent #### Heather 22 Dec 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Rustic, Tranquil Stay! We LOVED staying at The Old Trading Post. There's a lot of history to the place, which my mom really enjoyed. The properly is beautiful and surrounded by nature. We enjoyed watching many species of birds while staying on the property. The dogs on the property were friendly and sweet and not overly loud. We enjoyed only one night here but which we could have stayed longer...and plan to return on our next Garden Route adventure. The property is truly peaceful and tranquil. We enjoyed sitting by the pool reading books and resting, the beds and room are comfortable and clean. We stayed in the Tin Room. The only thing we did not like about our room was the floor boards create SO much, it was very noisy to walk around one side of the room. We felt terrible being so loud on our way out the door in the early morning because the room shares a wall with another suite. Mike and Renee were great hosts and even woke up to prepare a breakfast for us, ready at 6:30am so we could get on the road on time! Great food and lovely people who gave us our space but were also very friendly and helpful. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/s1655-p84689d20-c831-11e6-b340-cea531f716f3-original.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Heather ### 8/10 Good #### Birger, Copenhagen 23 Mar 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Good Night.

It was clean & comfortable. Couldn't get wifi in our room & had to be in the main house to use it. The breakfast was delicious & plentiful with a good selection of both continental & hot options. The owner was very friendly. ##### Katherine ### 10/10 Excellent #### Erin, Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania 5 Jul 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### beautiful lodge in wilderness We only stayed one night but wished we could have stayed for longer. The house itself was beautiful with a big front porch. We spent a few hours outside, reading and staring at the beautiful scenery. We were there in winter, but were cozy warm with a heated blanket and after taking warm baths in the tub. Breakfast was big, with both cold and warm options. We'll definitely be planning to come back someday. ##### Erin ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jem, honiton Uk 17 Feb 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A delightful place with a great host. A tucked away place that is very peaceful. Breakfast good, and facilities adequate. Mine host is friendly and informative. For bird watchers one of the lakes' hides is about 5 km away. ##### Jem ### 10/10 Excellent #### Claus 17 Nov 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Absolut empfehlenswert! Ein wunderschön gepflegtes Anwesen mitten in der Natur, nahe diversen Wanderwegen und nur einige Autominuten in die Stadt. Die Eigentümer sind sehr herzlich und sehr hilfsbereit. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. ##### Claus ### 10/10 Excellent #### Will, dc 3 May 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### peaceful setting We arrived a little later than we expected but it was easy to find even after dark.

Das Hotel liegt etwas abseits und man braucht auf jeden Fall ein Auto um ein Restaurant zu erreichen. Im Zentrum von Wilderness gibt es einige Restaurants. Das Frühstück war super und die Inhaber sehr freundlich. ##### Dirk ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 15 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Empfehlenswert ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alan 29 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities ##### Alan Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daniel 27 May 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service ##### Daniel Stayed 1 night in May 2021 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Arniston Spa Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Arniston-Hotels-Arniston-Spa-Hotel.h9746021.Hotel-Information) > > [motelone Hotels in Dublin](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dublin-Hotels-Motel-One.0-0-d6140001--bMotelOne.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Miramonti Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Avelengo-Hotels-Miramonti-Boutique-Hotel.h984436.Hotel-Information) > > [Historic Hotels in Ayrshire](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Ayrshire-Historic-Hotel.0-0-d6051145-tHistoricHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [5 Star Hotels in Hampi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Hampi-Hotels.s50-0-d6345163.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Perfect 10 - Blue Lagoon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Langebaan-Hotels-Perfect-10-Blue-Lagoon.h38359952.Hotel-Information) > > [Caravan Parks Yelland](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Yelland-Caravan-Parks.d3000471853-aaCaravanParks.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [The Wolfkop Nature Reserve Cottages](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cederberg-Hotels-The-Wolfkop-Nature-Reserve-Cottages.h10008888.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Blagdon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Blagdon-Hotels.d3000012283.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Amour Guest House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/George-Hotels-Amour-Guest-House.h58920377.Hotel-Information) > > [All-Inclusive Hotels in Glasgow](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Glasgow-Hotels-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d1334-tAllInclusiveHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Simbavati Cederberg Ridge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cederberg-Hotels-Cederberg-Ridge-Wilderness-Lodge.h29297472.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Lufthansa Hounslow (LHR) to Tokyo (HND) flights](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flight-routes/lufthansa-from-heathrow-to-haneda/lh/lhr/hnd) > > [Flights from Ulceby (HUY) to Bang Phli (BKK)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/huy/bkk/hull-to-bangkok) > > [Flights from Birmingham (BHX) to Langkawi (LGK)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/bhx/lgk/birmingham-to-langkawi) > > [Flights from Wookey Hole](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/553248634839091919/flights-from-wookey-hole) ### Activities ### Packages > [The British Museum](https://www.expedia.co.uk/The-British-Museum-London-City-Centre.d501529.Attraction) > > [Salem Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Salem.d6600.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [Lamai Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lamai-Beach-Koh-Samui.d6050552.Attraction) > > [Malta](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/theme-holidays/all-inclusive-holidays/111/Malta) ### General > [Visit Lagoa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lagoa.dx5714) ---
