Property information

Nestling beneath the craggy Imperani mountain lies the town of Ficksburg and there, at the heart of the Freestate highlands, you will find Green Acorn with its uniquely decorated guest rooms, filled with the comforts of the latest technology like DSTV and Free Wifi. Enjoy the peaceful and private gardens of the guesthouse. The Green Acorn Guesthouse lies at the gateway of Lesotho’s primary tourist destinations like the Katse Dam and Oxbow ski resort. But Lesotho is not the only attraction that this region offers the visitor. Just to breathe the unpolluted mountain air makes a visit here worth-while, and to rest and relax in the Cafe Chocolat Restaurant / Gin-Ger Bar where cosy winter evenings can be savoured around a roaring log-fire. The Green Acorn does THE BEST BREAKFASTS in town and if you would rather enjoy the ambiance of the guesthouse - you are welcome to arrange meals through the guesthouse too! Your hosts at the guesthouse, Christine & Rudi, are a power-couple on the go and will make sure that your stay at The Green Acorn Guest House is memorable.

Neighbourhood information

Ficksburg is a small town and the neighbourhood is extremely safe. This is a little town where you will still see the school children riding on their bikes. The locals are friendly people and we are always willing to help where we can.
