Wilde Manor

Wilde Manor Rooted in history, alive with adventure - Southside Virginia's most unforgettable experience. Wilde Manor is where timeless elegance meets wild adventure.

Nestled on a historic estate in Southern Virginia, our luxury wildlife lodge transports guests to the savannas of Africa — no passport required! Sip tea with giraffes, wake to flamingos dancing in the morning light, and unwind with a nightcap in the library bar after a day of wild discovery. From the charm of waddling penguins to the grace of leaping lemurs, every moment at Wilde Manor invites won

der. With beautifully designed accommodations, immersive animal experiences, and curated educational programs, we create meaningful connections between people and wildlife. Every stay directly supports the Wilde Conservation Foundation, funding real-world efforts to protect species and ecosystems right here at home as well as across the globe. Whether you're joining a behind-the-scenes animal tour, toasting the sunset as giraffes stroll by, or simply reconnecting with nature in quiet luxury — Wilde Manor offers a truly one-of-a-kind escape rooted in beauty, discovery, and nature.

"Penguins use camouflage to avoid predators" - FACT!

Their black backs and white undersides, known as counter-shading, help camouflage them from predators in the water and in the air.

🐧 Our little penguin is officially in their awkward teenage era — half fluffy baby, half sleek adult. 😅 As they grow in their adult feathers, things get a little patchy, scruffy, and wonderfully weird.

But every funny feather means he’s growing up strong and healthy. 💙

Teenage years are hard on everybody… even penguins.
