The private bathroom has a bath and hair dryer. Free WiFi and free private parking are provided. The property is wheelchair accessible and has facilities for disabled guests.

Dining Options

A continental breakfast is served daily. Guests can also order packed lunches. Homemade dinners are available on request - past guests have praised the pot roast with vegetables and mava pudding with cream. The breakfast is made to order and served in a separate wood-heated room with mountain views.

Activities and Leisure

Guests can cycle and hike nearby. The farm has a garden with BBQ facilities, an outdoor fireplace, and a picnic area. Kids' outdoor play equipment and board games are available. There is a shared lounge/TV area and a shared kitchen. For quiet evenings, star gazing is popular.

Location and Access

Fairbairn Guest Farm is situated in Maclear, 108 km from Mthatha Airport. The access road is a 14 km gravel track - a vehicle with good suspension or 4WD is recommended. The farm is surrounded by mountains, cows, sheep, and birdlife. It is a peaceful stopover for those traveling to or from Naudesnek Pass.

Services and Hospitality

Room service is available, and daily housekeeping is included. The hostess Linky and staff are noted for their attentiveness - they will set up a braai (BBQ) and light the fire for you. Meeting/banquet facilities and ironing/laundry services are offered. Special diet menus and kids' meals can be arranged.

“The setting here is truly spectacular, a visual feast unfolding with every turn of the drive, though be mindful of the road's rugged character. Inside, a comforting warmth emanates from the wood stove, a perfect counterpoint to the stunning natural beauty outside. The hospitality, marked by thoughtful touches like a pre-lit fire and helpful hosts, elevates the entire experience.”
