Farmstay vacation rentals in Eastern Cape

Throughly enjoyed our stay. Love the cottage and atmosphere. Sue was a very great host and the cottage had everything we needed. Definitely would stay there again

We had a very pleasant stay! The unit is neat and cozy with everything you need, and we loved the mountain view, farm animals and peaceful surroundings. Lucas is a great host too and made us feel very welcome

What a beautiful stay. Sally & Margaret were great! The treehouse is actually a hidden gem. The estate is out of the way of the crowds but close enough to everything. The treehouse has all the amenities you could need, it is spacious, furniture is comfortable, aesthetically pleasing and the whole place was clean! I would 100% go back and wish we could have stayed longer! Thank you for being such gracious and accommodating hosts!

We had a beautiful one night stay in the place! It is located within a lemon farm and Nita and her Husband were lovely! The roads to the place are dirtroads but fine with a normal rental car, no 4 weel drive required!

If you are looking to disconnect with real life and connect with nature then this is the place to go! We had a lovely stay at River Lodge at Karoo Ridge Conservancy. The hosts were very friendly and helpful and considerate with providing a camping cot and feeding chair for our baby and a net over the pool. Everything you need is there. We also did some of the hikes from the River Lodge and went for a great game drive with sundowners. Our dogs enjoyed the space as well. With no cell reception and WIFI at the lodge (only available at the reception shop), this is exactly what we need d for our breakaway. We will definitely visit again.

Helen was kind and welcoming. You can tell it’s a very well loved space. The rooms are cozy with such soft and comfy bedding. We loved the fireplace, full fridge space, and refreshing rainwater from the tap! Breakfast and dinner at Wild Fox Hill was all so delicious and nutrient rich! (My husband raved about the venison burger) Really incredible place for star watching and relaxing into a slow pace. The road up isn’t too bad, we faired well even with our low ground clearance rental. Just take it easy. We are excited to come back for a longer visit. Really nice space for the family to chill.

What a pleasure to stay at this beautiful place! We travel frequently and have stayed at a variety of locations, but we usually do not book long-term unless we see the property first. This time was different. Just looking at the booking page, something clicked for us and felt right, so we booked for almost three weeks, sight unseen. We were not disappointed, as it was everything better than we had hoped. The beautiful photos did not do justice to the actual vistas. Overlooking a nearly private, remarkably clean beach, you are surrounded by nature. The Cottage is clean, well-equipped with everything you need and comfortable. The hosts are great!! Friendly, attentive, with useful tips for shopping, etc. We will miss our times sitting outside taking in the view, having a coffee and biscotti with the delicious fresh milk the host family shared. Outdoor cooking on the braai and al fresco dinners became our habit and we really just wanted to stay at the cottage all of the day. Thank you!

The stay at Phillipa’s house was great. Spacious ,with beautiful views. 4x4 if you want to drive down to the fishing spot, or just enjoy the walk way down to the river “less than 10min walk”. Relaxing… We were 7 adults, 4 kids, and everyone enjoyed their “getaway”. Staff is very nice and does cleaning for you every morning.

We loved the place the minute we walked into the cottage. Everything you need (and beyond) is there and the view over the valley is amazing. Michelle's place also offers some amazing walks in the forest, and it is a great place for bird watchers. This is a place for nature lovers and it is super easy to immerse into it. Having said this it is still a very comfortable place and Michelle does everything to make that this feels like a home-away-from home. What a beautiful place and for sure we will book it again!

Private secluted area, with gekkos and monkeys. Beautiful area. House was clean and booking/checking in was easy. Kitchen was fully functional and if you need something, people here are kind and helpfull. Greetings from Copenhagen, Denmark.

Words can't describe how much we loved staying at Askop. The house is elegant, spacious, caters for your every need and offers incredible views from every room. The sunsets from the large outdoor entertainment area is absolutely breathtaking. We felt very welcome and we extremely comfortable.

I really love this place!!! Lorna and John are the best host. Will definitely come back.

We had the most incredible experience at Claire’s Airbnb! We hosted a baby shower here, and it was absolutely perfect in every way. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the setting with all the amazing animals made it truly special. From the moment we arrived, the staff was beyond accommodating, ensuring everything ran smoothly and that we felt welcome. The animals were a huge highlight! They added such a unique and magical touch to our celebration—everyone, from kids to adults, was in awe of them. It was such a joy to be surrounded by such a peaceful and beautiful environment. Claire and her team went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed, and their hospitality made all the difference. If you're looking for a one-of-a-kind venue for a special event or just a relaxing getaway, this is the place to be. We can't recommend it enough! Thank you, Claire, for an unforgettable experience—we'll definitely be back!

Tanja and her husband are lovely people who made us feel right at home. They were always willing to answer questions and give helpful suggestions. The house was exactly as advertised with everything you need and more. The shower is a steaming hot dream! The kitchen is well equipped and we had a great time cooking in this kitchen. The jacuzzi was our daily relaxation spot with a view, while we had our morning coffees admiring the view from the deck. We spent one afternoon at the dam swimming, paddling and tubing to our hearts delight. We also did the short walk to the pretty picnic area by the river. Unfortunately we ran out of time and couldn't do the longer hikes on the farm. We would come and stay with Tanja again in a heartbeat!

Lovely space, perfect location, attention to detail.. will be planning my next trip soon. Love the area 💙

Our stay at Elephant View Homestead in Plettenberg Bay was nothing short of spectacular! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the incredible attention to detail and the warm, welcoming atmosphere. The freshly baked sourdough, honey from the farm and eggs from the chickens was the most thoughtful touch. The location is unbeatable—perched on a peaceful farm with breathtaking views of elephants roaming freely at the neighboring Knysna Elephant Park. Waking up to the sight of these majestic animals from our stoep was an unforgettable experience! Yet, despite the tranquil setting, we were just a short drive from Plettenberg Bay’s stunning beaches, amazing restaurants, and charming shops. The homestead itself is immaculate, thoughtfully designed, and stocked with everything we could possibly need (and more!). We cannot wait to return to this home from home...thank you Carrie and Laura for the most amazing stay!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I absolutely loved Lydia's farm stay. It was stunning and tranquil. Lydia's communication and instructions were excellent. I will stay longer next time.

Carol was so helpful and informative from start to finish! The extra touches in the house were so sweet and thoughtful. Such a great space and location Will definitely use again on next visit Thank you so much Piers, Sophia & Aila 🙏🏽

After a long road on our way to Knysna, this was a wonderful stopover. It is a bit far off the main road and therefore it will be better to stay there for another day. It is rest for the soul. Diane is a superb host. This farm house experience will stay in our memories for a long time. We travel to and from Knysna often, and we will definitely be visiting again. Thanks for a lovely place to stay.

We really enjoyed our overnight stay at the cottage. It was spacious and Rozelle was very accommodating in providing extra bedding for an additional guest. The cottage is spacious and the kitchen is well equipped. It was lovely to wake up to the sounds of the farm in the morning. The location worked well for us.

The perfect house for our relaxing family get-away! A beautiful and tastefully decorated home, well situated with stunning views. Fantastic and well equipped kitchen which was greatly appreciated by my chef son-in-law, with both an indoor or outdoor dining area to choose from. There is also a great braai area set off to the one side of the pool which includes a fire-pit, with loads of comfy seating, which we really appreciated having been travelling for a while and just wanting somewhere to chill out and all be together. The bedrooms are incredibly spacious, with super comfy beds and each has an enormous ensuite bathroom. Bliss! We will definitely be visiting again, and will be staying longer.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It’s a beautiful place with breathtaking views. Great hosts and some of the highlights for us was the attention to detail. We felt at home from the get go. We wish that we stayed longer. We will definitely recommend this amazing place to friends and family. We will be back.

What an amazing weekend we had with family. Memories were made and it was the weekend we never knew we needed.

An absolute delight! Loved staying here!!! Highly recommended! The well-equipped and immaculately clean house instantly felt like home, providing a comfortable retreat surrounded by breathtaking views of mountains and valleys. Looking forward to my next visit! Host is amazing!
