The guesthouse was clean and neat, rooms were excellent. Check in was good and I was most appreciative for the packed breakfast.
This is not the fault of the guesthouse but the road leading to the guesthouse (New Road) is in a terrible state and could deter future clients. Perhaps in the future the Ladybrand municipality will get round to fixing the roads!

Reviewed May 26, 2026We liked everything about the place. The hospitality was exceptional. Breakfast was warm and delicious. We were allowed to change rooms the following day after we requested a room that has a balcony and that was amazing.
There was nothing we could actually say we did not like because we were treated with warmth and we could not even pin point anything that was negative there.

Reviewed Jan 22, 2026Niets eigenlijk.
Alleen meisje bij de receptie was heel aardig.
De ligging van het guesthouse.
Via tomtom of google adres heel slecht te vinden.
Je moet iemand daar in de buurt vragen andets vond je het niet.
En de straten in Ladybrand zijn verschrikkelijk slecht.
De straat van het cuesthouse is geen straat maar een greffelweg met gaten.
Accomodatie niet goed schoon en slecht onderhouden.
Bedden waren knetterhard.
Eigenaar niet eens voorgesteld wat je toch wel verwacht.(normaal doen ze dat wel)
Gewoon verschrikkelijk,wij gaan daar nooit meer heen wat een bende helaas.
Excellent Breakfast!
All was good, no dislikes.

Reviewed Dec 10, 2024We had travelled for 8 hours, much of it on really bad Free State roads ~ shocking, really ~ so we we were exhausted on arrival. The road to the property was also in need of repair, but arriving there was like finding an oasis. Lavona was super helpful and efficient, an absolute treat to see that our suite was at the pool, lovely gardens, green lawn, big comfortable room, well equipped ~ we were hoping to be there another night just to enjoy the place and recharge, but could not extend our trip to Gauteng. We also had a great meal at Cranberry Cottage, recommended by Lavona. If I had to make any critical comment it would be that the rave reviews of the brekkie which I read before booking did not quite match what we had, although it was good and prepared with love no doubt! Would most definitely recommend to others! Thank you !
I am big on good quality (preferably organic) food without preservatives/colourants and other unnatural ingredients that are not good for us. Sadly much of the brekkie things had these ingredients in ~ I get that in a 5 star place and also having access to such produce, it would be different (possibly) so it's not really a criticism others may not be bothered by so many Es and unnecessary additives
Great breakfast. Spacious room
It's a bit outdated

I would definitely recommend Ladybrand Guesthouse.
For the rate I paid I am more than satisfied.
The breakfast was good
The location of the place, the streets of ladybrand are full of potholez
I love that the property is big one can just stroll around and be captivated by the beautiful landscape
It’s very far
The heated blankets are a life saver! Despite it being freezing cold we had a relaxed and warm night. The room is simple, but has everything you need. I wouldnt call the breakfast exceptional (as advertised by booking) but it's okay. People with a sweet tooth will enjoy it. The check in and check out was very easy, thank you for that! It was a good place to spend a night during our travels.
