Enjoy the perfect holiday accommodation on South Africa’s West Coast. Farr Out Guesthouse Paternoster is less than two hours drive from Cape Town and offers you a relaxed country getaway.
It is close enough for a weekend break but distant enough from the hustle and bustle of city life with comfortable, affordable unique accommodation options. This 4-star graded guesthouse is located in the sandy bushveld wilderness. Crunching up the glinting shell pathway you can see across an indigenous garden and right out to sea, feeling pleasingly remote, and yet the few minutes’ drives from Paternoster to Farr Out is not what you would exactly call far.
Rooms
Choose your best fit: 2 elegant, luxury tastefully furnished guest rooms, namely “White Mussel” and “Black Mussel”, exciting glamping adventure “Wigwam Rising Moon” and /or self-catering apartment “The East Wing” will make your stay comfortable and unforgettable. Experience Farr Out’s activities such as wood-fired Hot Tub, Beach Buggy Fynbos Safari, in-house Healing Touch massages, an illusion chair in the garden, and lots more.
Catch a glimpse of the last manned lighthouse of South Africa situated near Cape Columbine Nature Reserve or listen to the foghorn and cuddle up. Farr Out Guesthouse is successfully operating since 2005 by German-born Marion and her South African companion Deon. Your hosts speak English, German, and Afrikaans.
Black Mussel- Witness Amazing Sunrise / Moonrise
Farr Out bed and breakfast has designed an east-facing spacious carpeted double bedroom (king-size bed or twin beds) at the ground level of the East Wing. You can witness the beautiful sunrise as well as moonrise. Fynbos will amaze your eyes from a private patio.
White Mussel – Feast your Eye on Landscaped Garden
White Mussel room at Farr Out B&B is a north-facing airy carpeted double bedroom (queen-size bed) at the ground level of the East Wing with views of the landscaped garden with Koi pond which can be enjoyed from a private terrace.
Wigwam Rising Moon – Glamping
Ever wondered what is “Glamping”? Glamping is a portmanteau of glamour and camping and describes a style of camping with amenities and, in some cases, resort-style services not usually associated with “traditional” camping. Glamping has become particularly popular with 21st-century tourists seeking the luxuries of hotel accommodation alongside the escapism and adventure recreation of camping. (Wikipedia)
This is where Farr Out’s luxurious Wigwam Rising Moon (tented tipi/tepee accommodation) located 40 m away from the guesthouse surrounded by Fynbos comes in: Twin peak tipi with ensuite bathroom (toilet, basin, and shower), comfortable octagonal bed fitted with electric blankets, thick duvet, and warm water bottle, tea/coffee facilities and even WiFi make your stay unforgettable and a rather unique accommodation experience.

Meet your Hosts
Marion Lubitz, originally from Germany, was hooked on South Africa since her first visit in 1989. She moved permanently to the country in 1998 to dedicate herself to the tourist industry. From 2007 to 2010 she was the volunteer chairperson of Paternoster Village Tourism and implemented ie the tourism office in Paternoster. By now she is tackling more projects at Farr Out together with Deon.
Deon Van Schalkwyk is an authentic South African and with his passion for the West Coast, he convinced Marion to settle down in the quiet area of Paternoster in 2003. After 24 years of Air force duty, he called it a day to start a new life along the coastline. In 2009 he decided to study again and became a qualified Tour Guide for the Western Cape. This gave him the opportunity to take out the guests for casual strolls in the Beach Buggy to share the interesting stories and history of the West Coast.
