“A great place to stay outside Maclear. Just be aware of the road to get there!”
This is a lovely spot to visit. We were only overnighting but it would be restful to have another day there. Delicious home made food. We had a whole farmhouse to ourselves.

The road in can be challenging, but it is worth it. Superb location on the farm, beautiful and peaceful place. Staff most welcoming, they went out of their way to take care of us and arrange things. I would highly recommend Fairbairn for a stop over, as we did, or even for a few days peace and disconnection.
