This is a place to stay when you want to pamper yourself, in an exclusive wilderness retreat, a boutique hotel with open fires, gracious gardens and the pleasure of watching the local birdlife from the verandah.
A Queen Room at Franklin Manor has a queen-size bed and an ensuite bathroom with a shower. A Manor Room has a large bathroom and a king-size bed. Then there’s the Manor Room Spa, which also has a bath style spa and bath robes.

Some also have their own alarm clock and clock radio. Continental breakfast included in the price, regardless of accommodation choice.

There are quite a lot of things to do nearby.

The Botanical Garden Reserve, Hogarth Falls and Strahan Harbour are just fifteen minutes’ walk away, and you are only about three kilometres from Strahan Golf Club. Also in the area are the West Coast Wilderness Railway, a heritage steam railway with a cog-rail system for dealing with the steep mountain climbs, performances of Australia’s longest-running theatrical play (‘The Ship That Never Was’), and even more can be discovered from the staff at Franklin Manor, who will gladly help with any ticket or tour bookings.
