Situated in the valley of Middelplaas near De Rust, Die Gat Guest House is a farmstead and historic monument owned by the Schoeman family since the early 1800s. Characteristics of the old homestead, such as the paint of German origin on the interior walls of the voorkamer (lounge), the original architectural form of the house and the picturesque environment have ensured that many a South African film has been shot here.

The guest rooms in the outbuildings, previously the school where the Schoeman children were educated, the cart-shed turned winepress, or even an ox wagon used by earlier generations, have been suitably furnished to give you a unique experience of the outdoors.

A visit to the farm and the daily routine, where you get to know the ostrich with its fatal kick, and a visit to the labourers and their families ensure that you get to know the people and life on a typical Klein Karoo farm. The tranquility and peacefulness of Die Gat ensures an unforgettable sleep. You can even sleep with doors wide open so as not to miss the grumbling of ostriches. You can also relax at the special pool of Die Gat, with its beautiful view of the majestic surroundings.

This was a treat by

Staying in a national monument that has been in the family for 200 years gives a historical feel, and the setting is beautiful with lovely rural walks. Dinner and breakfast were superb, and Susan and Anton were hospitable hosts. Dinner is a must in order to avoid driving along the gravel road in the dark.

Uitstekend by

Die verwelkoming was spontaan en ons het heerlik gekuier. Die akkommodasie is puik en die gasvrou se moeite met die kosse is uitstekend. Sal enigiemand met vrymoedigheid aanbeveel om daat te gaan oorbly.

Superb Hospitality by

Our night at Die Gat was one of the highlights of our recent holiday. We were thoroughly impressed with the careful attention to details and enjoyed a wonderful dinner and beautifully prepared and presented breakfast. To cap it all the environment is scenic and restful.

Superb Gem just outside De Rust by

Because it was not full, we were upgraded to the honeymoon suite. We were absolutely fascinated by the beautiful way in which the bedoom, bathroom and jacuzzi rooms have been done. Wherever we looked there was something of interest. The pictures, the decor in general reflected the history of this farm.
Sitting on the peaceful stoep which overlooks a field with sheep and horses was an added bonus. 
 Dinner was an experience. Susan, who told us that she has never been trained professionally produced a three course meal that was OUTSTANDING. Beautifully presented, very tasty. Anton was extremely attentive at our meal, and was a very charming dinner host. 
Breakfast carried on  where dinner left off. A faultless two course meal which was a wonderful start to the day. 
All of this set in a beautiful garden with water fountains created from all sorts of farm implements, beautiful trees and flowers.
I could go on and on, but having stayed in many, many B &  B's around the country over the past years (albeit we were in the honeymoon suite) this has to be very near to the top of our list, if not comfortably at the top. A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE. 


Wonderful hospitality by

Lovely relaxing farm setting with our hosts Anton and Susan Schoeman who provided us with a spectacular home cooked dinner and breakfast
