Beautifully decorated bedroom (number 4) with a view on the forest. Extremely quiet. The main shared areas (pool, lounge, dining room) are tastefully decorated as well, and the deck offers breathtaking views over the valley. The property offers the option of dining (for a very reasonable 350 ZAR per guest). Great breakfast, included in the rate. Great location barely one kilometer from the Monkeyland and Birds of Eden parks.

We were not expecting Fairview to be such a beautiful property or location. We were completely blown away!
Offering an outdoor pool, Buffelsdam Country House is located in the Crags. Free WiFi and streaming accessare available. This country house surrounded by fynbos and offers rooms in Cape Dutch style.
A beautiful region, with excellent restaurants. The Grootrivier and (Western Cape part of) the Bloukrans River passes are exceptional, as is Nature's Valley.
The Birds of Eden is THE world leading bird conservancy -- the biggest anywhere with free flying birds in a magnificent forest with a beautiful kloof, waterfall ,,, The nearby Monkeyland and Jukani conservancies are also probably the best in Africa.
Thyme & Again restaurant is also a favourite.

This is definitely not a family holiday spot!
This is definitely not a family holiday spot! It could, at best, be a backpackers lodge. The water in the bathrooms was brownish, and although there were assurances that it was healthy, we were sceptical. The rooms were tiny and barely furnished. The kitchen is communal and almost 100 meters away from the rooms - very inconvenient for those rainy days! What about the toilet and bathroom outside the rooms! We had surely booked the wrong place, and stayed only for one night out of four.

Its a wonderful place to stay, especially since it is 18kms...
Its a wonderful place to stay, especially since it is 18kms from Plettenberg Bay, so its more serene than Plett over the height of summer. There is a lot to do in the vicinity. We loved our visits to the elephant sanctuary (an absolute must-do), the wolf sanctuary, Birds of Eden, Tenikwa (wildlife rehabilitation), Jukani (wildlife sanctuary, especially for Big Cats) and Monkeyland. There's a super water park (Adventureland) about 19kms away, with fabulous waterslides.
We made the mistake of not booking restaurants for dinner in advance. Over late December / early January most places were fully booked, which really limited our options and we spent a lot of time calling around, which we could have avoided. I would scout the restaurants and book well in advance next time.

Everything was amazing, what a gem.
Everything was amazing, what a gem. The food was tasty, beautiful location which resulted in beautiful pictures. Even Diesel was a pleasure to meet. We loved everything and we will definitely be coming back
Beautiful farm close to Plettenberg Bay! The rooms are nicely designed, super quite and have a great view on the almond fields. Derek and Davina were super welcoming, explained a lot about the farm activities and gave us the real South African experience by inviting us to a family Braai! Derek is a great cook and breakfast was amazing as well! We would definitely recommend staying here!
We were served a lovely healthy breakfast on the patio. The location was close to Plettenberg Bay and all the attractions like Birds of Eden and the Snake park were very close. Loved the peace and quite and beautiful garden and dam.
Beautiful setting over the tree canopy. Lovely cosy open plan room. Quiet space in nature. Great location in close proximity to the wildlife parks and short drive to Plettenberg Bay and the beaches.
