Budget Getaways Review
Located right on the Western tip of the Tsitsikamma National Park, you'll be welcomed with open arms and warm hugs at Wild Spirit, a well-loved family-run lodge and backpackers.
Wild Spiriit is situated on Khoinania Farm in the Crags area, and strikes a happy balance between being close to both Plett CBD and Nature's Valley and its ethereal landscape.
Offering a variety of accommodation options - campsite, dorm rooms, family suites, pre-erected Safari tents - there literally is something to suit every need.
The eco-theme runs deep on this 18ha farm, as it prides itself on being sustainable, holistic and eco-friendly in its design and organic gardens.
A typical stay at Wild Spirit runs something like this: indulging in some “me-time” in a treehouse, while watching the horses graze nearby; learning a new craft from one of the talented onsite staff; getting your hands dirty with a spot of permaculture gardening; swimming in a rock pool at the foot of an 80m waterfall; taking a walk through indigenous forests; enjoying good company in the Driftwood Boma and Deck; cuddling up in front of the fire with the resident cat; enjoying the wholesome fruits from the no-preservatives-added gardens.
A Garden Route getaway where you can finally release your inner wild spirit.
"Unfortunately we had only one day in the Knysna area, but I am glad that we spent it there, the people are all interesting and friendly and the place is well situated. I hope to be back soon..."

"What a wonderful and restful place and the views are food for the soul. Being more mature we wondered how we would fit in with the "backpacker" style but no worries. Everyone was so friendly and we never felt out of place. Will definitely return for a de-stressing weekend."
(, April 2010)
