  • Description
  • Facilities
The Anker is situated in the province of the Free State. It is surrounded by lovely farms and mountains. Here you can switch off completely and forget about rush-hour traffic and deadlines. The tree-lined dirt roads, simple Karoo-style cottages and pomegranate and quince trees give The Anker a tranquil feel.

We have three self-catering rooms. The Karoo Room has twin beds in one room and a single bed in another, as well as a full separate bathroom. The Lavender Room has a double bed with a full separate bathroom with a double shower. The Ocean Room has one double bed and a single bed, with a separate bathroom with bath. All rooms are self-catering and included use of the front outside area with braai. Breakfast is available on request.

Philippolis is a lovely village for those who want to escape from the city for a few days. Enjoy silence, closeness to nature, stargazing, birdwatching, no traffic, old-fashioned tranquility and friendliness in this beautiful Free State town.

Braai area available, braai packs can be organised at an additional cost. Very favourite: Karoo Lamb.

25 fruit trees: peach, pear, apricot, plum, apple, grape, and pomegranate; in-season you are more than welcome to stroll down into the bottom garden and help yourself.

Hairdressing salon: appointments available 24/7. Shampoo, conditioner, Hairdryer, mousse or gel can be used

What a pleasant surprise! the room is great, the bath divine after a long day on the road. Will definitely stay there again. Value for money as the room can sleep 3 people.

We really enjoyed our stay at The Anker. Our host was very friendly and helpful. The area is nice and quiet - just what you need after a long day of driving! Will stay there again.

Philippolis is our preferred overnight stay on the way to the Cape. The rooms are beautifull, well furnished and quite at night. It is easy from The Anker to take a stroll into town (dorpie) and enjoy the quitness of the platteland.
