Fairy Knowe Backpackers

Set in leafy grounds overlooking the Touws River, this long-running hostel is based in a 19th-century farmhouse. The bar is in another building some distance away, so boozers won’t keep you awake. There's an activity centre offering kayaking, abseiling, horse riding and paragliding. To get here, drive through town and follow the road for 2km to the Fairy Knowe turn-off.
