Four Fields Farm, hotel in The Crags

Four Fields Farm offers accommodations in The Crags, 21 miles from Plettenberg Bay Game Reserve.

We had a delightful stay at Four Fields Farm. We used the apartment as a base while exploring the nature's valley area, which is only a short drive away. We really enjoyed the tranquil setting, the landscaping, the birds, the fresh cut flowers, the well-equipped kitchen, and Ilze's sound advice. Would gladly return.

    A beautiful region, with excellent restaurants.

    A beautiful region, with excellent restaurants. The Grootrivier and (Western Cape part of) the Bloukrans River passes are exceptional, as is Nature's Valley. The Birds of Eden is THE world leading bird conservancy -- the biggest anywhere with free flying birds in a magnificent forest with a beautiful kloof, waterfall ,,, The nearby Monkeyland and Jukani conservancies are also probably the best in Africa. Thyme & Again restaurant is also a favourite.

    This is definitely not a family holiday spot!

    This is definitely not a family holiday spot! It could, at best, be a backpackers lodge. The water in the bathrooms was brownish, and although there were assurances that it was healthy, we were sceptical. The rooms were tiny and barely furnished. The kitchen is communal and almost 100 meters away from the rooms - very inconvenient for those rainy days! What about the toilet and bathroom outside the rooms! We had surely booked the wrong place, and stayed only for one night out of four.

    Its a wonderful place to stay, especially since it is 18kms...

    Its a wonderful place to stay, especially since it is 18kms from Plettenberg Bay, so its more serene than Plett over the height of summer. There is a lot to do in the vicinity. We loved our visits to the elephant sanctuary (an absolute must-do), the wolf sanctuary, Birds of Eden, Tenikwa (wildlife rehabilitation), Jukani (wildlife sanctuary, especially for Big Cats) and Monkeyland. There's a super water park (Adventureland) about 19kms away, with fabulous waterslides. We made the mistake of not booking restaurants for dinner in advance. Over late December / early January most places were fully booked, which really limited our options and we spent a lot of time calling around, which we could have avoided. I would scout the restaurants and book well in advance next time.

    We found everything we might need in the cottage like plates, pots, pans, pillows, blankets, etc. The cottage itself is a modest place with 2 bedrooms, a kitchen, a nice view, a parking space in the garage. The hosts are such a friendly and lovely couple. The host made us very delicious breakfast and brought it early as we asked the previous night. We enjoyed our stay a lot, it definitely was a good value for money, quite close to Nature's Valley. There's also a supermarket nearby.

    This was a magical place to spend time on our South Africa vacation. The Villa is outstanding with the lovely rooms, resident animals/friends who gave us lots of cuddles, fabulous food and the host are very caring. I felt like I was wrapped in a warm blanket of care. Scrumptious breakfasts and phenomenal dinners. I cannot recommend this place enough! Luckily we spent three nights here but would have loved to spend even more time.

    This hotel was amazing! Set in the middle of a forest. Beautiful outdoor space. Rooms were gorgeous. Staff were lovely. We especially loved talking to Wonderful. Such an interesting man and he made our stay so welcome and interesting. Evening meal was good. Limited menu and you booked in advance. We would highly recommend a night or two here. Loved it! It was our favourite accommodation in South Africa.

    We made our own breakfasts. The hosts were very kind and helpful. The location is very close to the world-leading Birds of Eden, and equally close to the excellent Monkeyland. Conveniently close to the beautiful Nature's Valley, the magnificent Grootrivier Pass and the equally magnificent Western Cape portion of the Bloukrans River Pass. And not too far from Big Animal conservancy Jukani.

    We stayed for a view days at 20 good summers and it was terrific. Very clean and spacious room with a large, comfortable bed. Well decorated and beautiful art. Fast laundry service as well. Surrounded by nature and nearby great hike trails and beach. Hosts gave us a warm welcome and everything we needed. The farm stay is totally off the grid, so no loadshedding. Really recommend it!

    Good location, delicious breakfast, spacious property with great views and most importantly, Gert-Jan is an outstanding host who is really knowledgable about the region and activities around Plettenberg Bay. The property is unique as it is surrounded by nature and is great if you enjoy time outside.

    This was our favorite of the places we stayed in South Africa, and we hope to go back some day. The proprietors are warm, welcoming, and helpful. Breakfast was wonderful, but you should definitely plan to eat dinner here during your stay- they were some of the best of the trip.
