I stayed for 2 nights in a suite at the manor house at Fancourt. From the moment we arrived we were so well looked after, nothing is too much trouble for the staff here.

The New York Times bestselling author of the Manor House Mysteries and the White House Chef Mysteries returns with a mix of murder and mayhem for curator Grace Wheaton.
Now that Grace Wheaton has officially been named heir to Bennett Marshfield’s fortune, her usually busy schedule has become a juggling act. In addition to her duties at Marshfield Manor, she’s bankrolling her roommates’ refurbished wine shop, Amethyst Cellars. Grace is excited to check out the rustic space with Bruce and Scott. But that excitement turns to dismay when they stumble upon the body of the banker involved with the sale. Grace wants to get to the bottom of this mystery quickly so that her friends’ new venture isn’t overshadowed by an unsolved murder, but she’s got even more to balance when her troubled sister, Liza, is released from prison early. Liza’s first stop is Marshfield Manor and her first priority is grabbing a bite of Bennett’s fortune for herself. Grace has to keep her greedy sister at bay and catch a killer before her new life comes crashing down around her.

Roxanne was particularly polite & helpful:-) The surroundings are incredible, set beneath the Outeniqua mountains, its simply breathtaking to look at. We took a bike to ride arounds the grounds, I would highly recommend doing this, it was a great way to view the property. There are 3 golf courses, one of which is a Links championship course, so great for all standards. And for the golf widows out there, there is a fabulous spa! I had a full body massage which was pure heaven. Food wise, we ate at Henry Whites and I had delicoous springbok there - cooked to perfection.
La Cantina is the italian restaurant, I ahd. Dear lolasunshine, Thank you for your wonderful review of Fancourt.

Taking care of you during your time with us was only our pleasure and we sincerely look forward to welcoming you back 'home' to The Manor House and Fancourt in the near future.
Warmest regards, Roxanne Marais The Manor House Operations Manager. We do travel a lot and most of that has to do with golfing. We have been to the Fancourt before and liked it already, but this time was some real extra-class. The freshly renovated Manor House is clearly amont the best we have ever seen - and so far it is the best hotel we stayed at so far. We know the Ritz Carltons as well as the One and Only but we haven't ever experienced such a warm hearted, family-like atmosphere in a really exquisit suite like this. Just the same as all rooms on the ground floor we were only a few steps away from the pool and a few more steps away from everything else (restaurants, golf-courses, fitness-center, jogging trail etc.). For luxury golf experiences, this is certainly within the top10 in the world.

Actually, Fancourt has now 3 golf courses. We were recently so lucky to stay at the Manor House in Fancourt, the newly upgraded boutique hotel on South Africa's most famous golf estate, and it was a superb experience from the word go. The proactive service, the food, the Lavazza coffee machines, the free mini bar, the spacious suites, the high tea and sparkling wine and especially the golf and spa all contributed to create an experience to remember. We can only give this superb place the highest accolades. I don't think I have ever experienced service as good as this. Obviously the wonderful setting of Fancourt all contributes to the atmosphere and if you are a golfer even better.
We laughed our heads off at the surprise towel animals in our room every night but will not give the game away because part of the fun was to.
