We stopped in Springfontein whilst making our way down to the coast, and we're happy we did. It's the perfect stop along the road, in a sleepy but secure little town. Going for a run throughout the surrounding fields wasn't an issue at all. Pieter was a magnificent host, making sure we had everything we needed and always reachable. Room itself is exactly as advertised and comfy, with a very spacy bathroom. Great stay!

Internet signal was spasmodic in Unit 6, but manageable. Rustiq Restaurant was a good suggestion. Great place to break the long-haul trips. The staff were great and the welcome right up there. Will be back.

Phillipolis is a little out of the way .
Phillipolis is a little out of the way . The roads are quite potholed, but they are working on it. It is a really dusty and rundown little town , but there are signs of renewal. People were friendly and welcoming and new guesthouses and eating places have opened. The town is safe to explore.

The clean well maintained unit was Great.
The clean well maintained unit was Great.
The reception staff ,security and restaurant staff were all very friendly.
Recommendations
The reception staff can maybe promote the restaurant/ dining area we had to ask if it is open and available for dinner.
The lights at the reception entrance inside the outside of restaurant and restaurant foyer are extremely dull. I recommend some nice bright lighting will definitely add to the ambiance.
The food was good value for money.
Stay was Great!
Historic buildings, architecture. Friendly people. Many old towns in the Free State have fallen into complete decay (eg. Winburg, Zastron) but property owners in Philippolis clearly love their properties. Even though it's a way off the N1 the detour on the R717 is no longer than the main road ... you just have to drive carefully to avoid potholes. Going slower is good as you pass through stunning Free State Karoo landscapes.

Gariep is really conveniently situated for an over night stop to and from Cape Town, You can self cater and really enjoy the view, relax and have a really comfortable nights rest. You can also go to the restaurant if you prefer. We have been coming for many years really look forward to our stay each time.

Oldest establishment in the Free State.
Oldest establishment in the Free State.
All activities/facilities are within walking distance from the centre of town.
The Philippolis Hotel is definitely a stop for a traveller wanting to see how a building can be restored. Definitely check out the woodwork. The bar serves ice-cold beverages, even in load-shedding.
Pitstop restaurant offers great meal options at reasonable prices. I can recommend the Lamb.
The main access road to Philippolis has a few potholes, but the town residents continually repair the road to ensure good access. The roads in the town are in a reasonable state.
Good option as a stopover en route to Gauteng from Cape Town
