Once you realised that you had stepped back 30-40 years in time, the place is amazing! Everything, down to the aluminium butter dishes is period correct! The hosts couldn’t be better if they tried! Absolutely fantastic people👍

Superb accommodation. Right up there with the nicest on the R62.
Thanks Vivienne… and thanks Barry for the bumpy ride into the mountains in your little go anywhere vehicle with all your dogs. So much appreciated … especially by my daughter and granddaughter visiting from the UK.

An easy drive from Colesberg via Meiringspoort Pass which a must to view. Received a warm welcome from Theresa and Jan and recommended the The Grumpy Goat Pub and Grill for drinks and supper which was just what we wanted. Breakfast in the main house with various pictures of the past and also the photo of England v. South Africa Cricket Marylebone Cricket Club July 1994 score card and signed photo. South Africa won by 356 runs. Breakfast was excellent.

De Rust has authentic old houses lining the main street throughout town. Mountains as backdrop complete the picture. The reception at Irissa Sanctuary was warm. I felt right at home. Karen is an excellent host!
Make sure you have enough time to enjoy the unreal Meyerspoort.

We arrived for one night on Jan 3 2023 and basically De Rust was closed.
All restaurants had the night off save for one pub who managed to serve us their last 2 portions of bobotie thankfully. Could not even get fuel for the car or cash out of the ATM.

We loved this beautiful little town in a panoramic setting with various vintage deli's, coffee shops and antique shops. Meiringspoort is jaw-dropping beautiful.
The let-down was the begging children day and night in the street where tourists walk and eat. They were clearly on drugs. The one was extremely forceful and stood infront of our car, refusing to move unless we gave him money and the same child followed us all the way as we walked to our restaurant and back to our accommodation again later that night. It definitely did not feel safe and felt sad at the same time. Surely this should be a social responsibility issue for the town management to sort out?

Nice quaint little village.
We tested the hiking trail on the Meijers Rust farm, which were nice. Saw a large group of baboons and some buck.
Also the Meiringspoort waterfall is well worth a visit - short walk from the parking up to the waterfall and the scenery is just spectacular.

Small but charming, surrounded by lovely mountains, on the South side of the Meiringspoort Pass. A good trip would loop around Meiringspoort Pass (tarred, easy driving) to Prince Albert and return via Swartberg Pass (tougher driving). Both of these Passes take a while to drive, both are worth the effort, and are different enough to make both worthwhile.

Friendly and hospitable people.
Friendly and hospitable people. It is always a pleasure to stop when traveling through De Rust and our weekend stay was memorable and pleasant.
Many nice place and for an excellent meal, stop at the Spekboom Restaurant at the Rooi Donkie. You will love it
Amazing location and lovely finishes inside, the soundproofing is great between the Chalets. The mountains are breathtaking, felt safe and secure and wished we stayed longer. We had our 2 dogs with us and were able to explore the beautiful farm, big bonus. Very close to Meiringspoort Waterfall and the town De Rust. The Owner is friendly and there is wood available to purchase.
The second time I've stayed and just as comfortable and welcoming as before 👍 Plenty of places to explore and restaurants with delicious meals and typical Karoo hospitality in De Rust. Thanks, Colin ... l love your cottage 🌹
Anmarie was an excellent hostess and ensured that we were well looked after. Beautiful and very neat cottage.
