Fairview Historic Homestead

 

Country comes to town...We offer true South African hospitality, superior holiday and business accommodation in a unique antique furnished Cape Georgian home first registered in 1864 - in those days a farm on the outskirts of George, but today, centrally situated in the Eastern side of town. It took a lot of hard work to recapture Fairview's long lost splendour and elegance and we invite you to share in this beautiful home and gardens when you next choose accommodation on the Garden Route and in George. Desmond is the creative force behind  the glorious gardens and Philda runs  the Guesthouse : we will gladly assist  you with bookings for Golf at local clubs, local tours, restaurants, plus onward travel arrangements.  Ons praat graag Afrikaans met ons Afrikaans, Nederlands en Vlaamspreekende gaste ! *Full traditional breakfast and dinner by arrangement *DSTV *Off street parking *Wireless internet access available *Salt water pool - towels supplied *Golf and other sport facilities nearby *15 minutes from the Airport and 5 minutes from Victoria Bay beach Polished wooden floors, brass and iron four-poster beds from a bygone era, working fireplaces lend warmth and character to the spacious high-ceilinged rooms.
