Perfectly Positioned to Come & Go

Located a ten minute drive away 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.

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.
