58 guests' feedbackThe accommodation is "outstanding".
It was amazing! Facilities fantastic! Staff so helpful and kind.
We and our children had a great stay at the Green House. Beautiful village!
I can definitely recommend the accommodation. I had never been to Philippolis, and the beautiful surroundings were a pleasant surprise for me. The staff are very competent, friendly and helpful and together with the lovely atmosphere of a peaceful little town, it really makes you feel welcome. I am glad that I chose Die Groenhuis Guest House as my place to stay on the recommendation of a friend.
Very comfortable and peaceful accommodation with a wonderful pool in which to cool off. Enjoyed an excellent dinner at the local hotel!
Great stay. A lot of information about the town and events was communicated to us. It was pleasant.
This was the second time we stayed at Die Groenhuis Guest House and we can confirm once again how beautiful this place is. I can highly recommend it.
Beautiful house, room, garden and surroundings. A gem. Lovely walk in koppie and swam afterwards. Thembi's lamb stew was top notch. (I found the dinner price a bit expensive).
Very nice stay. Nice service experience.
We would like to thank you very much for a wonderful overnight stay in the Garden House! It's so beautiful and comfortable and the ginger beer and cookies were a delight! Dinner was off the books! The world was fresh and clean this morning after about 15mm of rain in the night! Our breakfast will be eaten later along the road. I really enjoyed your beautiful and informative Philippolis book! Your guest house is a gem and the view from the oxcart is so peaceful! Thank you very much for your hospitality and may you be a haven for tourists for many years to come! Greetings Isabel and Willie Lotz.
We slept very well, got very good food in the evening and very friendly service. Would truly recommend to anyone.
Well received and lovely stay.
Someone in town asked me where I was staying. When I replied that I was staying at the Green House, she said it was the best guest house in town. I don't know the other guesthouses, but was very pleased to stay here. Here is silence and peace, exactly what I came looking for. I felt very safe, and enjoyed the bleating of the sheep and the crowing of the rooster, and the cattle and horses in the field across the road. Even the birds are friendlier here than in the city, they go about their business without being disturbed. True peace.
We had a really nice sleepover on the way back from vacation. The house is beautiful, everything was clean and tidy. Even our two dogs were welcome and they enjoyed the lawn after the long day in the car.
Beautifully clean, delicious food, and very friendly management.
The Green House exposes one to the rich history of Philippolis and the surrounding area. The style, dressing, food and hospitality remind one of the rich heritage of the region. The traditional peasant food is excellent! Will definitely return and spend more time as well.
We got dinner which was really very very nice. Our road food for breakfast wasn't too bad either! We felt spoiled the whole time! Can definitely recommend Die Groenhuis to any travellers.
Really enjoyed our stay.
Friendly, relaxed atmosphere and staff. Comfortable, clean rooms and delicious dinner. Would definitely stay there again!
We were cordially and warmly received. We immediately felt at home. If you want to organize a family weekend for family who are people of the heart, this experience is unbeatable. We were able to make wonderful memories. Something we will do again without a doubt.
Drive the back roads and take the Jagersfontein turnoff at Bloem when coming from Jhb. No trucks and a smooth ride with beautiful scenery.
Safe social distancing in the OFS, great accommodation, great people and service. Well recommended - Phillipolis is a gem in the Free State having played lockdowns to its advantage with the result being a safe socially distanced environment offering good service, value and a degree of sophistication.
Thank you to the host for a friendly welcome and a wonderful stay. The countryside is always a charm for us and so is Phillipolis and surroundings. One day was too little to observe everything in the area and the village. John and Theresa.
Jens made the whole process very easy. The place is very stylish and nicely furnished and the open field just next door was lovely for a walk or two with my dog. Can definitely recommend the Green House!
A gem in the Free State's plateau country.
We had a great time. Food was awesome. Definitely value for money. Thank you very much!
Jens and Neil are top hosts. Dinners were a highlight. Excellent chef. The guest house is in a quiet area of town. Phillipolis is also a beautiful town, rich in history. Would love to return.
We had a great time at the Green House. The place is very nicely decorated. There are the most beautiful works of art. And that porch! That stoep is made for long visits and good conversation. Or just be quiet. It's heavenly. It's clean. Plus, the food is better than anything even your Grandma ever made. Go taste it yourself.
Jens makes an effort to inform his guests about the town. Helpfulness and kindness are non-negotiable.
Very nice town and guest house. Good food and helpful people. Also accommodated us with two small children. They also helped with our booking which was incorrect without any further expense. Will stay there again.
Had a unexpected good time.
We really enjoyed our walk to the hill.
Beautiful house and great location. Our evening meal was delicious.
Jens was extremely friendly and helpful. Had a delicious dinner. I had to take my puppies out through the night and the stars were amazingly bright. It had been a very pleasant overnight stay.
Recommended as a halfway house from the Northern Cape or Eastern Cape. If there is time, stay two nights and enjoy the culture and history of the town and surroundings. By no means miss Thembi's cooking prowess.
From arrival to departure, everything was a great joy. We had dinner at the Green House and what a feast it was. The visit will stay with us for a long time.
This is prime accommodation with a friendly host who communicates well and keeps guests informed.
Lovely to sleep in the town, but to feel as if you are on the farm. Accommodation is located in a nice and quiet location. Good facilities and nice porch to sit on. Delicious plate of food ordered from a local lady on the recommendation of the host. Will definitely drive to Philippolis again, and then stay longer.
The house is perfect for a stopover between Gauteng and the Cape. It is a neat house with braai facilities on the premises. Will return to the Green House for sure.
Thank you Uncle Jens for your hospitality and beautiful home.
Very beautiful, authentic and neat.
They allow pets and that is a huge plus. Staff friendly and helpful. Meal was excellent.
The house is very interesting. Good restoration work. Absolutely loved just shutting down and rebooting.
The Green House has a lot of history which makes it very special. It feels like a real little farmhouse with the nicest furniture. Was clean and very tidy. Thank you for a peaceful and beautiful evening's stay. No technology bothering you.
The stable has been beautifully restored and has exceptional attention to detail. Beautiful antique furniture and exceptionally clean and tidy. We found our accommodation very comfortable and were even able to grill a little meat. The stable is highly recommended. We will definitely stay here again.
Was received very kindly. The accommodation is neat and clean. I can happily recommend it.
We loved Groenhuis, everything you need is provided for, the decor and furniture were really stunning, as was the lovely cotton bedding and the setting was just perfect out in the country. Great hospitality, super accommodation.
Overslept one night on vacation. The accommodation was clean, comfortable and the surroundings are very peaceful and the guest house had all the basic necessities. We can recommend dinner and breakfast at the Rooi Ooi. Overall very satisfied and would definitely recommend.
Philippolis is a very small old town with all the necessary, what you need if needed. Good for sleepover and for a view days stay if you want to brake away from city life and get some peace of mind with resting. Because that's what you can do there.
Jens is a treasure trove in itself and just looking through the accommodation is already delicious. The silence was wonderful and luckily we brought them rain.
Beautifully appointed, charming host/staff, great value. Well worth the hellish 55 km detour from the N1. Philippolis is a gem of a place.
This was our first acquaintance with Philippolis and the accommodation and town took us back to a previous era. Thank you, Jens.
We had a good time, ate well in the town and visited a farm where the people were very nice.
Lovely house in Philippolis with off street parking. Self catering in small kitchen, 4 rooms can accommodate large family or party. Electricity problems in town can cause a bit of trouble with self catering. Hopefully town council will have this sorted out.
Philippolis was our first stop from JHB to Cape Town. My family and I were pleasantly surprised. The antique furniture etc. took me and my husband back to childhood. It makes you appreciate the little things in life again. Uncle Jens was very helpful and kind, thank you very much.
Sal definitief weer gaan.
Wonderful stay - just too short - in Groenhuis. What a beautiful area in our country. So many anecdotes from Philippolis to read in the Green House. Was able to rest wonderfully before the next day's long drive. House had everything we needed and the garden was a wonderful discovery trip for the children. Had a great meal at Birdhaven, a stone's throw from the guest house.
Our family stayed at Die Groenhuis on the way back from our holiday. We were received by the owner who warmly welcomed us. The house has everything you need but is a bit on the old side. For those who like the old farmhouse feel, this is the place for you. The road to the village shakes a lot so drive slowly. But overall we had a comfortable night's rest to safely complete our second leg of our journey.
