“Far Far Away Guesthouse is a small, character-filled retreat in the heart of historic Graaff-Reinet, lovingly created by Dutch hosts Arnoud and Masjenka. After more than twenty years of travelling through South Africa, they finally followed a long-held dream and made the Karoo their home.
Set among jacaranda trees and whitewashed walls, the guesthouse invites guests to slow down and feel at ease. Thoughtfully designed interiors feature local artworks, Pierneef-inspired murals, and carefully selected antique furniture from the Eastern Cape. Despite its peaceful atmosphere, the guesthouse is perfectly located in the lively town centre, with restaurants, cafés, and local shops all within easy walking distance.
Mornings are unhurried, breakfasts are generous, and days unfold at the gentle rhythm of Karoo life. Far Far Away is more than a place to sleep — it’s a place to arrive, feel welcome, and truly experience the spirit of Graaff-Reinet.”
