Escape the hustle and bustle at Anna Africa Guest House
Anna Africa Guest House offers a peaceful and comfortable retreat just 10 kilometres outside Bloemfontein’s city limits. Set in a serene rural setting, this guest house provides an opportunity to unwind and enjoy both the tranquillity of the Free State countryside and the beauty of nature.
The guest house is designed with an open-concept layout, blending a warm color palette and tasteful furnishings to create an inviting and cozy atmosphere. The spacious home features three bedrooms, which can comfortably accommodate up to eight guests. There is a full bathroom, a separate toilet, and a large, open-plan kitchen that flows into a welcoming lounge area.
For those who love outdoor living, the guest house features an outside barbeque area near the garage, complete with granite countertops. Guests can enjoy barbecuing in style while taking in the gorgeous Free State sunsets, all protected from the wind and cold.
A major highlight of Anna Africa Guest House is its diverse farm wildlife. Guests can encounter various animals, including eland, sable, blesbuck, springbuck, gemsbuck, and ostrich. Daisy the impala, who has an amusing belief that she’s an alpaca, and the quirky alpaca clan (Patty, Sparkles, Brownie, Basil, and Onemore) are among the most beloved residents.
Kerry was very friendly and welcoming, and the location in Bloemfontein was peaceful. However, we stayed during an extremely cold night, and unfortunately, the water pipes froze due to the... read more weather. We had to purchase wood from Kerry to use the fireplace in the TV room, which helped a bit, but the bedrooms had no heating. Only a hot water bottle was available for warmth. For the rate we paid, I do feel that some form of heating in the rooms should be included during winter. I would consider returning in summer when heating isn't necessary, but would not recommend a winter stay unless heating is added.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay! We were warmly welcomed by our lovely host and her daughter—both enthusiastic animal lovers, which made us feel right at home with our dogs.... read more The whole family was a delight, and they went out of their way to make our stay special. What a memorable moment: watching the wild animals come right up to our unit at sunset to be fed—a magical experience. The space had everything we needed, and we slept comfortably. We’ll definitely stay again and look forward to keeping in touch!

I just wish we werent so far. Its an experience we will forever remember and cherish.
We would recommend Anna's Guest House to everyone!

Kerrie's place was such a beautiful place to stop for the night. It is close to town, but feels like you are in the country, with animals wandering around the... read more property with a beautiful sunset in the background. Kerrie was very welcoming, and was great at communicating as well (and were able to give us great recommendations for the area, too). Her place was spotless, and there were many little touches that made the place welcoming (coffee and rusks, hot water bottles, water next to the bed etc.). We were able to watch as the family fed the animals, and they were kind to build us a fire too. Everything was perfect, and we'd be happy to stay there again!

The owners were exceptionally friendly and attentive, making check-in and check-out smooth. I appreciated their quick response to a minor issue I had with the gate and Wi-Fi, which was resolved promptly.

Perfect setting to relax after a days driving. Very cool to be surrounded by all the wildlife and probably the best place to have seen the special red moon. Felt... read more right at home. Will definitely make it a go to place to stay in Bloemfontein

Kerrie’s place was extremely beautiful!
The place was very calming and therapeutic. Waking up to the beautiful animals was a show-stopper!
Pictures don’t do the place justice!... read more It’s even more stunning in person.
Kerrie’s communication was out of this world! She contacted us hours before our arrival as we were driving from other provinces. She updated us on the weather and cautioned us about the recent floods.
Check-in was super easy. Kerrie kindly waited for us even though we arrived later than anticipated. She showed us around the beautiful house, and was also kind enough to offer our parents a free stay in their flat as we were a big family.
With Kerrie’s great personality, prompt responses and scenic surroundings, I 100% recommend staying here.

Definitely one of my favourite Airbnbs ever.
Felt so much at peace at the Airbnb and on the farm. I can imagine coming back and staying there for longer.
The... read more farm and the animals are extremely beautiful and peaceful. Taking walks there every day felt very calming.
The accomodation was super comfortable and spacious and clean. Even with the cold outside, the fireplace and the beds kept us warm.
Also, having animals walking by in front of one of the bedrooms felt beautiful.
Communication was great. Kerrie and Sean are genuinely nice people. One can really enjoy talking to them. And seeing them taking care of the animals. Plus joining them to feed the animals is a wholesome feeling.
Thank you!
