Fairview Historic Homestead

Description

Welcome to Fairview Historic Homestead where Desmond is the creative force behind the glorious gardens and Philda runs the Guesthouse.

It took a lot of hard work to recapture Fairview’s long lost splendour and elegance and we invite you to share in our beautiful home and gardens when you next choose accommodation on the Garden Route and in George.

Polished wooden floors, brass and iron four-poster beds from a bygone era, antique furniture and working fireplaces lend warmth and character to the spacious high-ceilinged rooms. Whether on business or holiday, home comforts and privacy will ensure a memorable stay in this graciously restored homestead.

A Victorian Cape-Colonial style home and a National Monument.
