Springfontein House is a 3 star graded B&B offering Springfontein accommodation in 5 guest rooms.
Springfontein House is ideally situated for travellers from Pretoria (650 kilometres) to Cape Town (870 kilometres) and the other holiday resorts of the Western and Eastern Cape Coast, and visa versa. Many travellers between Cape Town and Durban choose to travel on the N1 to Winburg and the N3.
Springfontein House is on the outskirts of town and as such is surrounded by veldt. There is a swimming pool to sit by, or cool off in, during the hot summer afternoons and cosy rooms in which to relax during winter.
Springfontein House has five well-decorated en-suite bedrooms. All beds have electric blankets in winter.
All bedrooms have full air conditioning, fans and TV’s. The main sitting room and dining room also have full air conditioning and fires.
There is a beautiful garden room, which can be enjoyed for drinks before or coffee after dinner and is particularly appreciated by smokers, as all the other rooms are non-smoking. The bedrooms and main house encompasses a most interesting art collection of predominately South African painters, but with a good smattering of excellent European artists.
In general it is regretted that children under 12 years of age cannot be accommodated.
Wonderful three course dinners are prepared by the friendly staff and the breakfasts include what many people say are the best scrambled eggs in the Free State, if not the whole of South Africa.
There are two very interesting Anglo-Boer war graveyards and memorials in town for the budding historian to explore. The largest British field Hospital in the Southern Free State was situated in Springfontein and that, together with an army base, meant that the area was very suitable for the creation of a Concentration Camp.
Above all, Springfontein is about the peace and quiet of the area and the most fantastic star lit skies.

We do a once year road trip from Fish Hoek to Johannesburg and are always on the look out for interesting places to stay for an overnight break. We have stayed in the town of Sprinfontein before but this was the first time at Springfontein House. Our first pleasant surprise was to receive a phone call from the owner to check on our progress, we were 15 minutes away, and he was there to open the gates and greet us on arrival. He showed us to our room and discussed the evening arrangements.. this level of personal, but not intrusive, service characterized our stay. Our suite was traditionally decorated in farmhouse style with a spacious, but tired bathroom. The air con was quiet and effective. Unfortunately there is no fridge. The House is situated in a beautiful and expansive garden with a pool. We had relaxing pre dinner drink sitting outside listening to the bird life. The dining room has several small tables, decorated in "silver service" style. Once again personal service was evident with the owner going from table to table chatting in an unobtrusive manner. The three course meal was excellent, with choices of starter main and desert. The poached pear desert was particularly memorable. We had to leave early the next morning so cannot comment on the breakfast, but we were packed some padkos, by the owner. Our overall impression is very good. The place has a sense of peace and quiet about it, exactly what you need after 9 hours of driving! We would definitely recommend Springfontein house. Ps. The other couples who were there, had stayed several times before, which speaks for itself.
