Crafted With Passion, Inspired by South African Heritage


At Far Far Away Guesthouse, every detail of our interiors has been created with intention,
artistry, and a deep respect for South Africa’s rich aesthetic heritage.


We collaborated closely with Jacques Muller of JM Design, whose refined eye and timeless
design approach helped shape the character of each room. The atmosphere is further brought to life by
Chere of Anything Art, whose bespoke wall murals, beautifully inspired by the iconic work of
J.H. Pierneef, add depth, colour, and a strong sense of place.


To complement these artistic elements, we carefully curated a unique collection of
antique furniture sourced from Colonial Port Elizabeth, each piece chosen for its craftsmanship
and story. We also added bespoke, handcrafted pieces from De Oude Fabreeck in Bedford,
including a beautifully built-in library wall with a custom couch, bringing warmth, artistry, and a truly
personal touch to the space.


Every corner, texture, and finishing touch has been assembled with the
greatest passion and care, all with one goal in mind:
to delight, surprise, and inspire every guest who walks through our doors.
