A warm and gracious welcome awaits you at The Manderson, Three Star Retreat Hotel and Conference Centre, situated at the base of the forested Amatola Mountains, 7km from the dynamic rural town of Stutterheim. Our geographical location in the province of the Eastern Cape, conveniently close to major centres, makes us a well placed stop-over for travellers. We have also become a much sought-after destination for business and international travellers, weekend visitors and conference groups. Our pride in offering professional service is expressed through our friendly, courteous staff members and attention to detail, and is further reflected in the pristine beauty of the hotel grounds.

All rooms enjoy a lovely view of the quaint and well maintained gardens, while the outside rooms have their own private patios from which guests can take in the splendid natural surroundings and forest views. The veranda and wooden deck extending to the edge of the swimming pool offer magnificent mountain views, the perfect place for enjoying a light meal, reclining in the sun on a pool lounger or sipping sundowners while the daylight fades. Our lounge with its large fireplace is a luxurious and welcoming space throughout the year, but more especially during the winter months when the ambience is complimented by a roaring log fire. Browse through our permanent art exhibition or settle down with one of our wide selection of books available for your enjoyment.

Our specially designed and built Amahlati Conference Centre offers high quality fixtures, lighting and ventilation (also heating), and can accommodate up to 50 persons depending on seating requirements.
