Set amongst the fynbos at the top of a valley, the views at Fairview are in a class of their own. This magical small hotel only has eight rooms.  Renovated to embody a luxurious, contemporary feel, the Cape Dutch style homestead makes use of spacious design and vast windows to make the most of the idyllic surrounds. Refined and sophisticated, yet warm and welcoming, the elegant interior has been carefully considered. Taking inspiration from the works of South African painter, Irma Stern, the colour palette is a unique combination of neutrals with vibrant splashes of colour. Coupled with the whitewashed walls, brushed cement flooring, and natural materials and textures, the result offers a more modern take on country living. Striking South African artworks on loan from the esteemed Everard Read Gallery adorn the walls, while the presence of original antiques and other classic pieces, some of which have been on the farm for years, add to the charm. Whether you stay in the Main House or the Coach House, you will experience the ultimate in relaxed and simple luxury, from the fine linens and furnishings to the picture-perfect view. A fusion of elegant simplicity and sumptuous country comfort, each of the eight beautifully appointed rooms has been tastefully styled. Soothing neutrals and natural materials coupled with crisp, white linen and accents of colour, make the rooms the perfect place to relax and recharge. The ideal destination for a romantic stay for two, or for a larger group of family or friends looking for that special getaway, this charming home away from home has something to suit everyone’s taste and budget. Located a ten-minute drive from the scenic hub of Plettenberg Bay, Fairview House is close enough for easy access to the abundant attractions along this famous coastline yet secluded enough to take you away from it all.  Relax at the pool set amongst the fynbos, get lost in one of our library’s many books on the veranda, picnic in the gardens, take a leisurely stroll in the scenic surrounds or put your feet up in one of our eight luxury rooms. Whether you are looking for absolute relaxation or a little bit more, Fairview House has everything you need for the perfect escape from the everyday. The creation of seasonally inspired fine food in glorious surroundings is intrinsic to what we do at Fairview House.  We source our ingredients locally and take great pride in supporting small independent producers who contribute so valuably to the local economy and to the charm of the region. Breakfast in the summer can be taken on the veranda looking out over the valley and in the winter, tucked in the dining room warmed by the wood burning stove. We serve lunch and dinner by arrangement and would be delighted to pack a delicious picnic for you to enjoy on your days out. Ten minutes from whale-watching at Keurbooms Beach, ten minutes from the gorgeous Robberg Peninsula, fifteen minutes from Nature’s Valley’s idyllic beach and forest walks. Close to Kurland and Bitou polo fields and a stone’s throw from local vineyards, restaurants, golf courses and more. Fairview is the perfect base from which to explore.
