Springfontein Guesthouse

A fantastic little gem in the middle of nowhere to rest your bones for a night after a long drive. Very friendly people with a great facility. Very very quiet, perfect for a good nights rest to tackle the road again the next day. Please remember that the phone number is 072 215 2036

We enjoyed our stay. Our host was very friendly. The rooms were beautiful and bedding crisp white and very clean. I can definitely recommend. It is the perfect place to stay when driving from Cape Town to Gauteng. Just light a fire to the braai, and unwind after the long drive.

It is a bit remote area but the stay is good. The only disadvantage is there is no WiFi. Room was clean and spacious.

The dogs loved it as much as we did as a stop over on way back to Joburg after Christmas in Cape Town. Excellent all round but ensure you have all the food you need as the town itself is very sparse in terms of shops. The accomadation is first class and very comfortable and clean.

Spotless rooms, friendly and helpful host, beautiful sunset, It was a good break from our road trip back to joburg

tranquil stopover on a long trip On a trip from Tshwane to the Eastern Cape, Springfontein is a convenient stopover point, about 60% of the way home. It is just off the N1, and hence convenient for a mostly-N-road trip home (R roads can have terrible potholes). Pieter phoned before we set out to ensure that we knew that there were no restaurants nearby, and was equally helpful once we arrived, finding a fridge for us. Everything was clean and tidy and the facilities were excellent, with good-quality bed and bathroom including linen and supplies. The TV has a cheaper satellite service than DSTV, Openview, with fewer options, but we were there to rest on a long trip, so we did not miss our usual entertainment and news options. Just two minor quibbles – a helpful list of options such as asking for a gate remote if you want to go for a walk would be good. And the curtain was not heavy enough to mask an outside light.
