    What an excellent idea to book this magical place for one night. Chris the owner, was in Heidelberg by chance, met us and drove ahed of us to the villa. He gave us a great tour around the large property, which was a good idea, because the weather turned for the worse and we wouldn't have seen these beautiful vistas on the day of departure. Chris told us that he and his neighbour take good care of these large parcels of land, which mostly remain off bounds to tourists, are kept in their natural state and all non-indigenous trees are being removed. Our grandkids loved the villa's music-room and the biljart table. We all enjoyed being in this quiet, peaceful property that was filled with the owner's pieces of art, gathered from all or the world. We really felt that we were staying in someone's private home instead of in a holiday rental. Of course, as always, the big mistake was ,only book it for one night...

    Our villa was breathtaking, lunch was great, our dedicated game rangers were attentive and well informed and the facilities and reserve overall are wonderful. We wish we could have stayed for more than a night and day (ie we booked lunch, evening game drive, dinner, breakfast, morning game drive). Then we could truly have enjoyed the restful atmosphere and surrounds of the villa. Our children (12 and 8) had never been on a game drive before and loved it. We saw so many animals, including elephant, only missed the lions and leopard. Lovely experience.

    A real 5 star experience. We are not golfers but enjoyed a restful weekend here as part of a 3 week trip in South Africa. You are greeted on the door by very friendly staff and offered a drink. Our suite was exceptional as was the food and the lovely walks around the grounds. Treat yourself and stay at Fancourt to break up your journey on the garden route.

The finer detailed touches with their preparation of the unit was exceptional and very special. It was quiet and you could just relax and unwind. We really were sad to leave Thank you very much to the host and their staff. Hoping to see you again

    Mossel Bay itself has so much to see and do and then you have all the little treasures on the outskirts of Mossel Bay. One that we found this weekend after visiting Mossel Bay for the last 15 years is the Butterfly Sanctuary on the R328 in Ruitersbos. Visit in summer to see the butterflies as in winter their numbers are far less. A must at the sanctuary is to meet Earle Whitely a world renowned butterfly expert.

    Albertinia is a small country town without the big fast food...

    Albertinia is a small country town without the big fast food take aways . Very rural . You can buy the basics at one of the cafes or Pizza place . There is not much as far as shops go so it is a stopover to break a long journey or a week or two of total peace and quite without too many modern day interruptions. There is a braai area and all you could want to have to have an enjoyable stop and a good night's sleep and no rush to get you out in the morning .. I simply bought rolls and cold meat and yogurt at Piet se kafee as I did not want to cook . Coffee is provided although if to a heavy coffee drinker you may want to buy a bit extra as most guest houses only give you enough for two or three cups of coffee . I had a nice chat with the owner who told me about the abundance of underground water and about the area in general...This is not a property where you can come in and drink and party and be a nuisance to others . . No smoking inside the chalets which is excellent @
