128 guests' feedbackEverything was comfortable and the heater, warm blanket and extra blanket helped a lot.
Had a lovely time, very friendly service and I would definitely recommend them. They are also very good value for money.
Very nice and friendly service. Would just love to fish but reeds are a problem. So fishing on premises is not possible.
We really enjoyed our stay. The guest house is ideally located and is value for money.
Sally was amazing. She was so friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend it as a stopover if you need to break up a long journey!
Very pleasant, clean and spacious.
Friendly, well located and tidy - maybe more power points and mirror for doing hair. Age that starts counting against you.
We were welcomed very kindly. The place is neat and clean. The pool was a nice cool down.
Nice for a family gathering or just a sleepover. Feel nice place.
We had a great time! The staff are very friendly and went out of their way to make things enjoyable. The rooms are large and have everything one needs. The view is breathtaking. Highly recommended!
Exactly what we needed! The hostess is also very nice and always willing to help.
I was very impressed with our skin recovery. Sally is a beautiful person and goes out of her way for her visiting guests. I will definitely visit there again and this time for longer. It's peaceful, nice view, rooms everything you need and I think if there is something you want they will make a plan. Thank you very, very much!
Rooms are nice and warm and have everything you need.
Can recommend the guesthouse.
The scenery was lovely, both our rooms were 100% clean, tidy, fresh and well furnished. Perfect for a stopover on the road.
Everything in the room worked as expected. Very clean and comfortable. Very friendly staff at reception. Lovely gardens, and secure undercover parking.
The guest house is neat and nice for an overnight destination. They are pet-friendly and have a large lawn for the dogs and walking paths where you can walk with them. One can also order food from the hotel and they deliver it to the guest house.
Anytime willing to help and give a good service every time our people stay there.
See stars.
Friendly reception. The farm atmosphere creates tranquility.
Basic accommodation. Little cramped for 3 adults, but good overnight stop at reasonable price.
We were received very kindly. Inquiries are handled very quickly. Good service.
We were received very kindly and the hostess also immediately arranged for us to have dinner at the nearest excellent restaurant, so there was no need to drive to town. Will stay there again for sure.
Enjoyed staying with you guys.
We are very grateful to have been able to discover Petronella. It meets all our requirements. We will come here again. Thank you very much.
The walking route was one of the most enjoyable.
Sally received us with kindness. The unit is clean and tidy. We had a very nice stay.
Value for money. Friendly reception and nice clean.
Check-in time closes 19:00 we were only there at 21:30.
Friendly staff. The room was clean and was good as an overnight stop.

Peaceful surroundings and friendly service.
Accommodation was very nice and the hostess very friendly, we received a fantastic welcome and she told us more and showed us about the place. Would definitely recommend to anyone as it's value for money.
We were looking for a safe and quiet place to stay overnight after a wedding, but got much more than that. We were received kindly, rooms were neat and clean, even got mosquito nets to use. Enjoyed a great night's rest after a late night. We will definitely use Petronella's services again in the future.
We had a very pleasant two-night stay which started with a very friendly welcome. The breakfast was delicious and more than enough. There is absolutely nothing negative, except that it would have been lovely to stay longer if possible. Even though it is very close to town, with Clarence and Golden Gate close enough for day trips, it has a farm feel and has beautiful surroundings to relax in. I would (and have already) recommended it to our friends.
Suggestion: Family rooms to have separate bedrooms for the kids!
The guest house has lovely gardens that create a peaceful atmosphere. Beautiful views of a pond and mountains, with safe walking paths. We had a wonderful stay.
Nice comfortable place, well located.
If I could make a suggestion, I would recommend that a fixed covered parking space be allocated to each residential unit. As it is now, guests who have more than one vehicle can occupy the covered parking and some guests' vehicles must then stand in the sun. After all, every guest pays the same amount and therefore deserves the same amenities.
Thank you, Sally, for the the comfortable, clean and affordable stay. You went an extra mile for us without hesitation. There are spacious rooms.
Easy to book, friendly reception and comfortable accommodation.
Very peaceful environment. Neat and clean.
I was there for my first wedding anniversary and asked them to help decorate the room. What I got was more than I expected.
Beautiful rustic venue with warm and welcoming hosts.
What a wonderful, peaceful place. We as sports fans enjoyed it so much, as everything was available. We went mountain biking, on the premises, and even along the dam that was nearby. Our child who does athletics was also able to practice on the track that was cut out on the premises, which is safe. We sailed on the dam with the canoes, and were also able to take pictures of the bird life there. It is close to Clarens which we went to visit. The fact that it is just outside the town makes the farm feel even more enjoyable for a break from the city. The owner and management are friendly and very helpful and George the dog just crawls deep into your heart. Will definitely visit again with all the activities available.
Found a place full of peace and sunshine for me and the new baby so we can recover. Far from the noise and obligations. The room was spacious, the cleaners were good and my time there was over too quickly.
Easily accessible for the disabled. Wheelchair friendly. They put a chair in for me to shower. Lovely garden.
Very peaceful and helpful hostess. The place is very nice and tidy and has a beautiful view. The charlet was perfect for our whole family: two adults, two small children and our two big German Shepherds! Definitely a place we will stay again!
Thank you to Petronelle Gastehuis. It was peaceful and neat and comfortable, especially for my quad son. Thank you for the hospitality.
Thank you very much to Petronella Guest House. It was quiet and neat and comfortable especially for my quadriplegic son. Thank you for the hospitality.
Great location, clean linen and bathroom. Very friendly reception.
Value for money! We had a great stay and had a delicious breakfast. Kids enjoyed the swimming pool and games room. Will definitely go back.
We had a great overnight stay and would recommend any time!
Absolutely value for money! We had everything we needed and more. It was clean, tidy and just a pleasure to be able to spend 2 nights there. We will definitely stay there again!
Well located. Great service, friendly, helpful. Go out of their way to make it convenient.
See stars.
Will recommend to anyone.
It was so nice there. On the way home we spent the night there again. Breakfast was top notch and very cheap. We had already thought of spending the night there to visit Clarens very close by.
The room was ready on arrival. We were received kindly and the owner was very helpful. The room was serviced every day during our stay and we also received clean towels every day. Dinner is very tasty and affordable. We will heartily recommend and support them again at any time.
Clean, tidy, friendly people and just what we needed to stay for the night. Will definitely stay there again if we are in the area.
Very friendly service and incredibly tasty breakfast. Quiet, safe walks with beautiful nature to see. Neat, stylish rooms with daily cleaning. We had a great time.
Neat and clean. Friendly people.
Very nice place for the whole family who likes the outdoors. Plenty to do for everyone. Very nice atmosphere.
Was very friendly and warmly received. Rooms very clean and comfortable. Fantastic view and nice walking route on site with a lovely relaxation room and swimming pool. Truly a place that will see me again.
What a beautiful place to sleep at. Service is excellent, it's very neat and safe. Such a peaceful little gem. We really enjoyed the evening and I would definitely recommend it. Thank you Petronella Guest House for the beautiful place you have made available to people!
Rooms were spacious and clean. We were kindly received by helpful owners. Very satisfied, will definitely go again.
Baie skoon, vriendelike personeel en uitstekende diens.
The units were clean and tidy and beautifully located near the Sol Plaatjie dam. A fan would be a good asset in the summer.
Very neat place with a nice view.
WiFi is needed since there's no cellphone signal.
We slept well and were kindly welcomed by the hostess. We will stay there again.
We were warmly welcomed and it is really a beautiful farm.
Good to stay in but lacks the heart of a home. Can handle groups. Evenings are very nice and quiet.
Had a great time, will visit again in the future.
Neat and clean. Comfortable beds with very welcome electric blankets to keep the Bethlehem chill out.

We enjoyed it and slept well. The people are friendly and helpful.
Thank you very much, our stay at Petronella Gastehuis was very nice. Clean and tidy with everything you need. Conveniently located next to the highway. Will definitely stay there again.
We were pleasantly surprised. Everything was just perfect. Excellent service which you don't find very often. Should you pass through Bethlehem, make sure to stop over at Petronella, you will not be disappointed.
We stay at Petronella whenever in Bethlehem en route to the Lowveld and will continue to do so as the environment is peaceful and to our liking!
I recommend tourists to visit the place.
See the ratings.
We will be back anytime. It was peaceful and we got some great rest.
The room is spacious and tidy, the bathroom facilities clean and the owners went out of their way to accommodate us. We arrived late and were received very kindly. We were allowed to leave our vehicle and trailer there for 4 days without any further costs.
It was pleasant and affordable accommodation. Easy to find and a beautiful garden and area.
The area and the rooms are neat, and the people are friendly but there are some issues. The patio lights are really strong and they shine into the rooms - no block out curtains. The linen isn't 100% cotton. The shower was only lukewarm in the morning, not hot. My biggest issue, however, is the fact that the rooms aren't soundproof - the neighbours' activities woke us up during the night. And once you're awake you hear the traffic noise from the main road close by.
Will recommend it to anyone. Value for money and excellent service!
We enjoyed the stay and everything was so clean and fresh. Petronella will definitely see us again!
We had a nice stay. Very friendly and helpful staff. Stunning location. Thank you.
We had a great stay, it was nice and quiet and we look forward to our next visit in Bethlehem. People are very friendly. Hopefully next time we can stay a little longer than one night.
Everything was nice and neat. Shower was a bit clogged (takes a while to drain). That said, the food was delicious and the people were friendly.
I will use the facility again. The spacious rooms have everything needed.
We had a lovely stay and can highly recommend them. Just not the school teacher who chased everyone out of bed early the morning! (There was a tennis tournament in Bethlehem.) Neat, clean, comfortable, a beautiful area and affordable. Thank you!
Very nice and comfortable with a beautiful view.
We had a nice time, children really enjoyed it. Dinner was delicious but a bit overpriced. Friendly people, really accommodating. Large, spacious and neat rooms, definitely value for money. Can recommend it to any family. It's a beautiful part of the world and the dining room had a stunning view. Would've liked to stay longer.
Rooms are clean and neat and the price is reasonable for what you get.
Hospitable accommodation close to Bethlehem.
Very good overnight stay. Good location, neat, clean and quite safe. Only thing that bothered was the security light right above the door of the room which is glass and shined all night. Room was very light. Give option to switch light off or hang a thicker curtain.
Beautiful nature, well located.
We felt very welcome, safe and relaxed after a long day in the car. And particularly enjoyed the opportunity to sit outside and enjoy the lovely environment!
We have been staying at Petronella for years on our annual trek from the Cape to the Kruger Park and we have always found them reasonably priced, clean, neat and the new management are doing good word.
It was a lovely stay. Nice out of town but also only a 5 minute drive from the nearest centre. We had a great time and will visit again.
We were received very friendly and hospitable with a cup of coffee. The rooms are neat, clean and well equipped. We will definitely stay at Petronella Guest House again!
Beautiful Free State, lovely and peaceful overnight stay. Thank you for your friendly service.
The only comment is that the room was prepared for 4, while we booked for 5. And the rusk was only for 2! But what we asked for, we got! Thank you very much. We had a very nice overnight stay. Spacious facility for family with teenagers, who otherwise find it very difficult to find a place to sleep, or have to book two rooms. Great thought! Farm is very beautiful. Unfortunately we couldn't appreciate the nature, we didn't have enough time. Will spend the night there again!
Truly a great place to spend a day or more!
My husband and I stayed at Petronella for three days for a much needed break, it was really the best choice we could have made. I was able to relax wonderfully at Petronella and also go fishing again. For my spouse, it was just as nice and peaceful and since Bethlehem is only a few minutes drive away, she could enjoy the variety of restaurants and shops there. We will certainly use Petronella's hospitality again. The facilities and service at Petronella are excellent and not expensive at all.
The bathroom is very cramped. The sliding door of the toilet is not very private.
Thank you for the high quality stay. I would love to bring my family next time.
Apart from not knowing where the dining room was, the stay was pleasant and without problems.
Very neat and beautiful, for sure value for money and worth the visit.

Friendly service. What more do you want? Clean and tidy facilities. Beautiful surroundings. No noise. Heavenly in my eyes. Will definitely book there again.
I met Hans (the owner). It was very nice to stay and "visit" there. I would definitely recommend it, especially for families who want to visit Clarens or other places in the county over a longer period than just one day. I will definitely use Petronella Gastehuis again when I visit the county.
Everything was perfect. I will also return here with my family.
See the stars below.
The rooms are very spacious and clean, with everything you need. We were amazed by the wonderful experience we as a family had here.
We were pleasantly surprised with their facilities and cleanliness. The fact that it is on a farm outside the town is definitely a big plus. Definitely value for money.
Nice and quiet, had a nice stay, will sleep there again!
Nice away from the town's noise and clean.
See the stars.
In my order.
We slept warm and everything was very tidy!
Units neat and clean. Mattresses old and need new ones. Felt a bit unsafe.
The bedding was hostel-like, the pillows were flat and hard and the towels were clearly left over from the owner's own household. Not at all comparable to the value for money you would have lived on if you had already lived elsewhere.
