About

Sedgefield Backpacker, situated in Sedgefield, the heart of the Garden Route South Africa. Our backpackers is one of the original Sedgefield cottages built in the 1940’s. Recently renovated, this quaint Cottage offers the traveller easy access to the town and its many interesting shops, coffee bars, health bars, the world-renowned Saturday morning Wild Oats Market and the alluring wonders of nature.

The tranquil lagoon is a 900m walk from the backpackers. Boats are available for hire to enjoy a day in the sun, watch the birds at play or to throw a line and catch a fish for dinner (or at least share the fisherman’s tale around a blazing bonfire back at the backpackers!).

Sedgefield beaches are quiet and offer unique and amazing walks and sights – the geological fossil formations of Platbank, the pools that teem with fish and sea-life at low tide at Gericke’s Point, the endless views of sea and sand from all vantage points.

Not happy. There is some questionable people staying in there. You never know if someone just slipped off the street to grab a place to sleep. So its a bit of a shock when some one suddenly walks into the dorm at 1AM in the morning swinging the door open and no one was aware that someone would join the dorm. The staff doesn't seem to really know what is going on at this establishment and seem to be high most of the time. Also the staff wasn't even aware we will be checking in.
