The Guesthouse

St Fort's sandstone homestead, which was built in 1913, is nestled below the Mushroom Rock with the Little Calendon River meandering below. This landscape is the quintessential Eastern Free State farm experience. It truly offers the ideal getaway for family and friends to enjoy a wholesome and authentic farm stay while in close proximity to Clarens.

St Fort Farmhouse has been lovingly restored into a luxurious and comfortable guesthouse with 6 en-suite bedrooms, inviting one back to a bygone era that reflects the grandeur of pressed ceilings and wooden floors.

The guesthouse is divided into 2 units, the Main House and the Annex. An inter-leading room joins the 2 units.

The Cottage is free-standing and is situated to the West of the house. This cosy cottage sleeps two and has a lovely view overlooking the dam.
