Overview of The Giraffe Manor
Situated within 140 acres of indigenous forest and playing host to resident herd of Rothschild’s giraffe, The Giraffe Manor offers an experience incomparable to any other. The building dates back to the 1930s and is modelled on a Scottish hunting lodge, creating a charming, yet luxurious place where animal lovers will enjoy every moment of interacting with giraffe and exploring the forest.
You find the friendly giraffes in the most unsuspecting places, like the breakfast table or your room window, vying for your attention and checking out what’s on your plate. Relax on the verandah where you can hand feed these friendly long-necked beauties. Activities include forest walks to see the variety of bird species and rare animals found here, visits to the AFEW Giraffe Centre and the Karen Blixen Museum.

From here you can choose to enjoy your meal either by candlelight in the dramatic wood-panelled dining room or at your own table under the stars with the glow of lanterns on the terrace.
Tuck into delicious home-cooked meals that feature many traditional flavours and cuisine but with tasty, contemporary flair.

Wow - how amazing to be able to feed and come so close to these tall and uniqe animals! Apart from being able to feed giraffes the Manor is really beautiful. Rooms are all unique and individually done and if you stay in a front facing room you might just be able to feed a giraffe from your room!
