"Lovely peaceful getaway weekend. Come enjoy!"

Had a great stay, everyone who was with commented on the great view, quiet peaceful environment, perfect for a getaway. Good exercise going up and down the stairs. Would recommend anytime! All that is needed for a lovely visit with friends or a group of people away from city noises. We would love to come again.

"Vinnige familie wegbreek."

I have stumbled upon Twin Towers @ Fairview Estates while looking for nice hiking trails, and decided to book. What a wonderfully quirky and fun place to stay at with spectacular views over mountains. Alpaca, horses and cows roaming below. Sipping on my coffee early in the morning while watching the wondrous sunrises melting over the farmland. A truly wonderful place! This 3-story “silo-house” is for the fun-loving adventurer looking for something different while enjoying nature at its best. The ground floor has 1 bedroom with a queen bed, shower and toilet, and 2 double beds in the open area. The 1st floor has the main bedroom with a queen bed and a bathroom with a bath and a separate toilet. The 2nd floor has the kitchen with everything you will need, as well as the lounge area with comfy seating, fireplace, TV, DStv, Netflix and good WiFi, but no phone service. The internet worked well. Also on this floor is a small balcony overlooking everything, beautiful sunrises and spectacular views. The 3rd floor has a large open area with a dining area and braai facilities. Amazing views from up there. This area leads up to a nice grassy area with a bonfire area and a “plaasdam” for swimming. The house has lots of open stairs which are not safe for little kids to climb alone, but totally safe for older kids and adults. The stairs did not bother us. They are easy to climb and provide good exercise! The floors are wooden floors which are a bit noisy when you walk, and you can faintly hear each other through the wood, but again it did not bother us at all. We loved staying there; it was different, fun, and unique. The house was surprisingly warm and cozy. There is ample space and farm roads to walk and cycle. Bring your bicycles! The animals are beautiful, and the farm dog is super cute. We can't wait for summer to go again!

"Food for your soul!"

Thank you very much Fairview Estates for sharing your piece of heaven with us. It was very nice, we rested so well. And really enjoyed the quiet environment. It's just what we needed.

"Great family vacation!"

It was such a nice cremation! Beautiful area and so well appointed!

"Cosy stay."

We spent 2 nights in De Rust cottage. The view is beautiful. All the rooms have an oil heater and electric blankets on the beds. The cast iron stove made the cottage cozy and warm. Take just enough wood. Kitchen has everything you need. Even a filter coffee machine. There is a cleaner who comes to clean every day. Horses, alpacas and cattle on the farm. There isn't a shop around the corner, if you might have forgotten something. So pack nicely. At least there is WiFi, because there is no cell phone signal.

"Fantastic."

Fantastic. Secluded. Quiet.

"Peaceful, tranquil and very private."

Superb stay in a beautiful location! Would highly recommend!

"Thoroughly enjoyed the experience."

The venue is unique. Serenity and ambience with a mixture of farm animals made it more pleasurable. It is important to advertise unavailable facilities (e.g. television, DSTv). The taps for shower and basins should be labelled as hot or cold - the balance of hot and cold water in the showers was almost impossible.

"Dirt road."

We gave the accommodation away. In the house rules it states that the accommodation is 19km down a dirt road. Unfortunately it's not part of the general description.

"It was breathtakingly beautiful, will definitely visit again."

We had a tough year, the break was just what we needed. My family and I will definitely visit again. Thank you very much for the hospitality, help with milk, it was an experience.

"Great."

Was very nice.

"Lovely getaway in the breathtaking Eastern Free State."

The Eastern Free State remains one of my favorite places in South Africa. And Fairview's Twin Towers make it even more fun to visit. They converted two old silos into a three-bedroom unit, and it feels like visiting a friend's house. It's really well equipped with everything you need, with interesting artwork, comfortable furniture, and breathtaking views from every room. At the very top is a covered meeting area, and if you want to make a proper fire and barbecue, there is a bridge that leads to a nice fire place. There is no mobile phone signal, but there is strong Wi-Fi. The owners are friendly and helpful, and it's simply a pleasure to stay there.

"Rest and peace without equal."

Beautiful stay. It is an incredible privilege to be able to explore the beautiful farm. Be sure to bring cameras and binoculars.

"Very peaceful and incredibly beautiful."

We had a quiet few days.

"A fantastic, unique accommodation experience in the idyllic Eastern Free State."

The Twin Towers really are perfect for a unique Eastern Free State getaway. The accommodation has been furnished with a fine eye for detail - from the delightfully quirky "pop art" works of art to the warm blankets, alpaca wool cushions and fabric. We didn't sleep cold at all, even though we stayed there in the dead of winter. If you are a jogger, there are also beautiful jogging paths! We definitely recommend it (unless you're afraid of climbing stairs!). Thank you for a lovely break.

"Very very nice, beautiful and clean."

The road to the house was a bit rough, but only because it rained, but the stay, the view you see every day is just perfect, would go again anytime. A little far out of the towns so make sure you take everything you need and extra, because we just stayed an extra night so nice and nice it was.

"Breathtaking views."

Very cosy, all the luxury you need, electric blankets, fire place, beautiful decorated inside. Most amazing views.

"Absolutely an adventure destination."

De Rust guest house is something to experience. A dirt road leads to a bit of a mountain road that sends you through a cave mouth to the most breathtaking cottage next to a mountain range. The house is private and well equipped for visiting and relaxing. Corlia is a fantastic host and was available all the time. We will definitely visit Fairview again.

"It was even more beautiful than the pictures"

The house offers everything and more for a family of 4. Everything was clean and beautiful. The house is located in an incredibly beautiful part. The house makes you feel welcome. Clarens is relatively close if you fancy a lot of shopping and eating out.

"What a gem!"

The twin towers is quirky and fun! It's so lovely to see the thought that went into all the details and accommodation. It's really something unique and different. We loved it.

"Great worthwhile and unique experience."

If you enjoy the outdoors and something unique, the Twin Towers is the place to visit.

"De Rust Farm Cottage is a wonderful retreat."

We stayed at De Rust Farm Cottage which is away from the rest of the farm and nicely secluded. The Cottage itself is very well equipped and has an internal fireplace for wintery evenings. Can highly recommend. Just a note that the cottage itself does not have cell phone signal, one needs to walk a little and one does need a car with a bit of ground clearance to get there (bakkie, SUV, we were in a Hyundai Venue), a low sedan won't work.

"We were enchanted with the beautiful surroundings and were able to relax, rest, laugh and hang out."

Even though the area had more rain than usual (since 1958) and we were mostly indoors, the house lent itself to family togetherness and the nature around us could be seen and experienced. We were a large group and booked both the Twin Towers and De Rust, I would not recommend this at all as the distance and terrain between the 2 makes it impractical.

"Adventure!"

Fairview Estates is nie glitz en glamour nie - as jy wil fancy wees, bespreek by ’n hotel. As jou siel rus kort, pak jou tasse en reis na Fairview Estate. Maak seker jy pak alles en skakel vir ’n paar dae af waar niemand jou sal pla nie - behalwe die Alpacapella groepie!

"Absolutely beautiful."

Wow! What a wonderful and beautiful place. We loved our stay at Fairview. Helpful and friendly service, breathtaking views, fully equipped house.

"Breathtaking views! Stunning stunning."

We stayed in Twin Towers. The views are really beyond beautiful. We loved every minute of The Towers.

"Fantastic getaway weekend in very nice and quiet location with very comfortable accommodation."

We had a great time and enjoyed this beautiful place between typical East Free State sandstone mountains. We also had a great mountain bike ride.

"No words."

The road is not for cars. I had a flat tyre on the dirt road towards the venue. We only slept at the venue for one night of the 3 as we could not travel back an forth on the road. When I told the owner I could not stay there due to the road she simply stated that she did not think the road was bad at all. I am telling you now that the road is not suitable for cars, SUVs or bakkies, for sure but not cars. It took me 1h40min to travel back to the main road the next morning.

"You immediately find tranquility when you arrive there."

This is my second time at DeRust and just enjoyed it even more than the last time. You need a 4x4 car to get there. They have nice big soft towels, good quality linen and warm blankets for a good night's rest. The kitchen has everything you need. We love walking, and had a nice walk to the pond in the morning before breakfast and enjoyed the incredible sunrise. We will go back again and again.

"Ultimate rest and escape from the busy world we live in."

Made so many unforgettable memories in my two night stay at Fairview Estates that I wish I had stayed longer. There is no better place to escape the noisy and fast paced world. Was the perfect boost of relaxation and happiness to get me through the rest of the year. Thank you to all at Fairview Estates for the breathtaking experience.

"Wonderful experience."

A wonderful experience. Very neat and clean with a beautiful view.

"Had a good stay. "

Had a good stay, will recommend it.

"#ALPACAMYBAGSAGAIN#TO#TWINTOWERS#MALCOOL!"

Ons het 'n lekker stil, maar tog "nice" wegbreekplek gesoek om ons anniversary to vier! Wat 'n lekker surprise was dit nie om in só 'n unieke, wel toegeruste, silwerskoon, smaakvolle plek in te boek nie. Dit was eerlik een van die beste plekke waar ek nog gebly het, so uniek met 'n ongelooflike mooi uitsig! Weer was die Saterdag nie great nie, maar Clarens en Fouriesburg is 'n klipgooi weg met 'n mooi pad om te ry! Corlia — wenresep, ek hoop die "Twin Towers" loop oor van bookings, dit was nou rerig 'n lekker naweek! Die swembad agter met sy view is iets om te beleef, son het ons lekker verbrand die Sondag! Mense, besoek die plek, dis ongelooflik!

"Awesome!"

Verblyf was uitstekend en silwerskoon. Ons gesin het dit werklik geniet. Sal definitief aanbeveel. Baie dankie.

"Outstanding."

Great place for a weekend away!

"The nature surrounding us, the people, the house, everything enriched our souls!"

De Rust is a place where you can fill up your cup. The surroundings are breathtakingly beautiful. The cottage was fantastically luxurious and equipped with everything that one could possibly think of. The cleaner is a beautiful person who does her work with so much respect and devotion. We were so privileged to stay there. Next time we'll bring the kids along, they are all that was missing.

"It was a nice adventure. "

Twin Towers was such an experience. Had a great time, was just a pity it was so short. Everything was neat and clean. We had a great time driving around on the farm and cooled off in the farm dam. Breathtaknig view from every window. We arrived at night, gravel road comes to a dead end in Fairview Estates. Basically no cellphone reception, how nice. Thanks, we'll see you again.

"Wonderfully relaxed!"

Had a great time. It would have been valuable to know that one actually only if i.t.v. had to pack food supplies, as the 25 km dirt road back to the main road took about an hour to complete. Also think the cleaning service should be included in the total package. To pay extra if you are already paying R1750/night... The facilities are in excellent condition. Beautiful antiques, lovely big fluffy towels, fresh bedding. Can see there is no neglect at all. Even the kitchenware, plates, mugs etc. is good quality and there is a nice big fridge. Poor cell phone reception was a lovely bonus! Fairview will definitely see us again, but our preparation will be a little different.

"Lovely, unique and very relaxed."

What a lovely experience. The accommodation was unique and something completely different. Stunning environment. Neat and clean. Will definitely visit again.

"Unique and relaxing!"

The "Twin Towers" provide a unique accommodation experience. Very well furnished and a view from every room. We will return for sure, especially with a larger group for a longer time.

"Great! Well equipped house, everything was neat and clean."

Great weekend. Definitely recommend this. Well equipped house, neat and clean. Amazing to be in nature, will definitely go back.

"Breathtakingly beautiful location and very nice and comfortable accommodation."

Fouriesburg area is very beautiful and also a good overnight stop if you want to visit Katse Dam. I would recommend it to anyone looking to get away from the city for a weekend.

"It was the most delightful, beautiful place to just get back to basics and recharge."

Wow, what a great experience. We had a great time in the beautiful farmhouse, and everything you need was at your disposal. Remember to buy all your groceries before you go home, because I assure you you won't want to drive back and forth. It's a long stretch of dirt road, but once you're there, it's all worth it. The horses came to visit us in the house and were tame enough to handle. It was fantastic!

"Awesome accommodation and breathtakingly beautiful surroundings."

The "Damn Caravan" was luxurious beyond our expectations, even though we saw the nice pictures on the website. We had a great time relaxing and enjoying nature. Rosalina and James made us feel at home and visited us every day asking if we needed anything.

"Heavenly!"

Amazing place! I would definitely recommend this to anyone who needs peace of mind!

"Fairview Estates was so much more than we hoped for!"

De Rust Gasteplaas, where we stayed, was really like our own piece of "Hemel" for the 10 days there. Would highly recommend for those looking to switch off from the daily grind. As a family, we have new appreciation and love for each other as well as for our creation!

"Had a wonderful sleep on the farm, incredibly tidy, nice 4 X 4 routes driven."

The kitchen works great for a large group of people and there was enough sleeping space for everyone. Lovely porch where we sat and barbecued for hours and admired the flames and scenery.

"Amazing getaway."

Wonderful! We had an incredibly nice stay.
