We stayed at Fancourt from 8 to 10 August 2025 as a family of four – my wife, our son (4), our daughter (6 months), and myself – as part of a group booking. This was our third (or more) visit, and once again, Fancourt reminded us why it remains a benchmark for luxury hospitality in George.||⸻||Arrival & Welcome Lunch||We arrived just after noon to a warm welcome and were immediately invited to enjoy the lunch buffet. The spread was generous, with excellent quality dishes. Although seating was in high demand, we quickly found a table. The cozy indoor atmosphere and charming outdoor setting made it a perfect start to our stay.||⸻||Smooth Check-in & Exceptional House||Check-in was seamless, and we were escorted to our assigned house. From the moment we entered, we were struck by the breathtaking golf course view from the living room – a picture-perfect scene.||The living area was spacious, with a chimney, comfortable seating, and a smart TV connected to YouTube (a highlight for our son). The bedroom was large, spotless, and inviting, with a bed so spacious that three of us slept comfortably.||The bathroom featured both a bathtub and a shower with hot water available at all times. Our son especially enjoyed the bathtub. The house came with abundant linen, bottled water, a safe, and every detail thoughtfully provided.||On arrival, the house was already heated, creating a warm, welcoming environment. Everything felt fresh, meticulously clean, and well-maintained.||⸻||Personalised Touches||One of the hallmarks of Fancourt is its attention to detail. We were greeted with a personalised welcome letter for our children, complimentary wine for us, and chocolates labelled with our children’s names. On the second day, we were surprised with more chocolates, which delighted them. These small touches elevated the entire experience.||⸻||Kids Club & Activities||Our son absolutely loved the Kids Club, which offered a variety of activities throughout the day. One evening, the children enjoyed a cinema night complete with a special kids’ dinner. The staff were warm, attentive, and clearly enjoyed working with children.||Below the Kids Club is a modern, spotless gym that opens at 06:00, fully equipped with a variety of well-maintained machines and weights, as well as a heated indoor pool.||Family recreation extended beyond the club – our children enjoyed mini-golf near reception, and cycling around the grounds offered spectacular views of the estate.||⸻||Dining Highlights||Dinner: The main restaurant served outstanding meals. The wine selection waa nice, the range of dishes wide and well-prepared, and the salads fresh and full of flavour. Service was polished, friendly, and attentive without being intrusive.||Breakfast: Breakfast was equally memorable. A highlight was the omelette with salmon – an unexpected and delicious treat. The fresh strawberries, likely from the nearby farm, were sweet and flavourful, adding a wonderful local touch.||⸻||Service Excellence||The staff at Fancourt excel at delivering genuine, attentive service. From porters, kitchen team and waiters to receptionists and Kids Club staff, every interaction was courteous and professional. Calls to reception were answered in under two seconds, which is rare even among top-tier hotels.||⸻||Grounds & Transport||The landscaping at Fancourt is breathtaking – manicured gardens, pristine fairways, and beautiful natural backdrops in every direction. The estate is large, but a club car service with a porter is available anytime with just a quick call, making it easy to move around.||⸻||Checkout & Final Thoughts||Checkout was fast and efficient, closing out another memorable Fancourt experience.||From the warm welcome and thoughtful in-room touches to the world-class dining, immaculate facilities, and truly personal service, Fancourt delivers a 5-star+++ experience that blends luxury, comfort, and family-friendly hospitality.||We will return again and highly recommend Fancourt to families, golf lovers, and anyone seeking an unforgettable stay in George
