Most people don't realise Portland Manor is a working farm until they arrive.

Then they see the macadamia orchards. The protea rows. The drying plant on the property. And something shifts — this isn't just a hotel. It's a place with roots.

That's what makes it different. 🌿

You know that feeling when you finally exhale?

That's what Portland Manor does to people. Tucked into the forests and farmlands just outside Knysna, this is the kind of place where the pace slows the moment you turn through the gate.

💧 Portland Manor's private dam is one of those quiet surprises guests discover on arrival.

Big enough for water skiing, calm enough for a canoe at sunrise, and stocked well enough to keep any fisherman happy for an afternoon.

And when the dam isn't enough?
The Knysna beaches are 20km away.

What's your relationship with water — fast and exciting, or slow and still?

Wimbledon Comes to Portland Manor 🎾🗻👀

This past weekend marked a long-anticipated tennis event on our beautiful grass courts at Portland Manor!

We had the privilege of hosting a wonderful birthday celebration with a classic Wimbledon theme and it suited our setting perfectly. Guests embraced the occasion, dressed in white and bringing the true Wimbledon spirit to the day.

Tables were set alongside the courts, ensuring that everyone could enjoy the tennis action while celebrating together.

And, in true South African style, the day ended with a relaxed braai at The Cowshed Restaurant. 🇿🇦🔥

A beautiful day of tennis, friendship, celebration and great food at Portland Manor. 🎾🥂

The Slow Living Escape at Portland Manor. 🌰🔥🛏️🗻🌳

The fire is lit. The sherry is poured. The only thing left to do is slow down.

This winter and spring, escape to the countryside for two nights of quiet luxury, crisp country air, and meaningful moments. Leave the notifications behind and rediscover the simple pleasures that make life extraordinary.

Imagine arriving at our Country Hotel, settling into your room, and ending the evening beside a crackling fire with a warming glass of sherry. Roast marshmallows over the flames, dip fresh strawberries into melted chocolate, savour traditional rusks with rich hot chocolate, and enjoy a selection of country-inspired treats as the evening unfolds.

Wake to birdsong instead of alarm clocks, explore ancient forests, wander peaceful gardens, enjoy hearty country breakfasts, and embrace a slower rhythm of life.

Whether you're celebrating a special occasion, reconnecting with someone you love, or simply craving a well-deserved break, The Slow Living Escape invites you to pause, breathe, and enjoy the season as it was meant to be.

✨ Available for a limited time this Winter & Spring.
