Meijer's Rust, hotel in De Rust

Meijer’s Rust is located on a working farm surrounded by the Swartberg Mountains and 1 km from Meiringspoort with its gorge and waterfalls.

We enjoyed the quaint little house (hartebeeshuisie). It was filled with peacefullnes, neatly equipped and out in the veld. If you want to listen to the silence of the night, watching the stars, smell karoo bush, enjoy "braaivleis" and an outdoor (warm) shower ... this is the place to stay over!

    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.

    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.

    Everything was perfect. The place was beautiful and clean. The views are jaw dropping, and you can enjoy watching the sun set while relaxing by the bonfire. Whatever utensils you need, are provided. Debbie was very welcoming. Extra blankets and electric blankets were provided for those cold Karoo nights. A complimentary bottle of wine made from grapes grown on the farm made it extra special. The surrounding area is magnificent. Cape Nature does an excellent job at making it accessible. De Rust has some excellent eateries for lunch.

    Nice big family rooms in a good location. De Rust is a charming little village at the foot of the Swartberg Pass, with lots of little restaurants (next time we’ll try those). Braai facilities and communal garden and pool are well maintained and create a nice place to chat to some of the other people staying there (although there is enough space to keep your distance if you prefer your privacy). En voor de Nederlandse toerist altijd leuk om een landgenoot te ontmoeten als eigenaar van dit leuke plekje.

    The location worked well for us as we arrived by motorbike and Werner gave us secure parking just off the mail road. We loved the bye-gone era feel , the tranquility , chickens with names, the unhurried feel and warmth of the hotel. It's very well positioned to explore the town by foot or the surrounding area by vehicle. Very good value, comfortable bed and good WiFi which ticked all our boxes.

    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.

    Great communication from hosts Deon and Karin. Rus in De Rust is a lovely cottage set in a beautiful garden - just what you need for an over night stop. The cottage is beautifully decorated and the bed was super comfy! Will definitely recommend a stay here for a night or three if you are looking for some peace and quiet.
