Kevin and Elsie Cook
Interlaken Guest House is owned and managed by Kevin and Elsie Cook we bought the house in 2004 as a run down buisness. Over the last 12 years we have added many features to the house and made it a lot more modern. Today we are very proud to offer what we believe is one of the top guest houses in Wilderness having won several excellence awards from Booking .com and various other organisations.
Kevin is an ex submariner and loves cooking and fishing while Elsie is a bubbly person who amongst other things enjoys raising money for under priveliged children at various schools in our area
Wilderness is a quiet Village with a lot of character and some excellent restaurants we also have one of the best beaches on this coastline.There are plenty of outdoor activities such as fishing paragliding kite surfing to name but a few
