A mountain retreat among the orchards of Ceres

Come visit us!
Fairfield Cottages is set on a 100 ha operational fruit farm against the foot of the Skurweberge Mountains.  All the self catering accommodation options have a breathtaking view of the mountains surrounding Ceres valley. The vine covered porches provide the ideal place to enjoy sundowners, while watching the mountains basking in the pink afterglow of the sun or see the full moon rise over the mountains. Each season is special on the farm – winter boast views of snow capped mountains and crystal clear streams running past the cottages, in spring the orchards in pink and white blossoms are breathtaking – so is the abundant wild flowers, summer is ideal for our numerous activities and autumn turns our special town (a mere 6km away) into a picturesque wonderland. Our activities on the farm include hiking trails, mountain biking, fishing, canoeing and bird watching.  Fairfield is also home to a variety of wildlife, magnificent fynbos, 2 resident four legged friends (which duty it is to pay a friendly visit to all guests) and a few horses. The self catering accommodation is also pet-friendly.

"Well-equipped, perfectly located, clean cottages for a super breakaway from the city.

Fairfield cottages are located at the foot of the mountain and amid the fruit orchards of Fairfield, just outside Ceres. They are very well equipped, with everything you may need. We occupied both Klipspringer and Fynbos. They have high-quality crockery (enough of everything) and the kitchen is very well equipped with an electric stove and other electric appliances. There is no backup power, but there are fireplaces and rechargeable portable lights so load shedding hardly bothers you. Everything is super clean with lovely linen and comfy beds. There is a Tickle Tub, which was perfect for late afternoon chilling (or warming). There is a sparkling clean swimming pool and many options for walks on the farm. There is also a dam and you can canoe or swim or fish or bring your own SUP, etc. Fairfield Cottages are highly recommended for a family or a couple. The cottages are far enough apart to enjoy peace, but close enough to move between if your group is large enough to occupy more than one cottage. There are good security measures like burglar bars, security gates and an alarm system. The cottages are comfortable enough to lounge about in if you don't fancy going on walks or doing any of the other activities. You can buy rusks and firewood on-site. Just book it - you'll love it!"

Pragtige verblyf. Alles wat jy nodig het. Lekker swembad. Lekker staproetes.

Vriendelike diens. Pragtige verblyf. Alles wat jy nodig het. Ons het heerlik afgekoel in die swembad. Kon lekker gaan stap. Mal oor die plek. Sal definitief weer daar bly.

"Anita we would just like to say Thank you so much again. Honestly it was worth every minute! Every cent/penny! We had such an amazing time surrounded by most beautiful views of nature we had complete privacy and safety. Everything was clean and we felt right at home.

We also enjoyed the hot bath outside and a lovely warm night under the stars.

Everything we needed was right there for us.

Thank you Anita for your warm hospitality and quick response! God bless you!"

"Spacious, comfortable and clean accommodation. Lovely walks around the farm, dips in the splash pool and paddling in canoes on the dam during the day. Beautiful sunsets, relaxing braais and multitude of stars at night. Well worth the visit."

"Beautifully appointed, well stocked, spacious farm cottage under the trees. The dogs had a ball. High recommended dog stay. We had a bit of a problem following the mountain trails but the farm roads were more than enough."
