Welcome to
Die Ou Pastorie

What People are Saying
“A more beautiful and romantic setting for a Valentine’s Sunday lunch is hard to imagine. ”
“The food was both delicious and the presentation beautiful with very helpful and attentive staff. Great place to visit in the Skeerpoort countryside in the valley of the Magalies mountain range. Absolutely delightful, tranquil, tree filled venue with a strong sense of history and beautiful artworks to boot.“
“Great place to stop over”
“Well preserved South African historical residence, complete with authentic furniture and other household items, like stepping back in time to the 1850s.
Rooms are well kept, beds are comfortable.“
“Lovely little find”
“Old Country House with a great garden setting for outdoor lunches. We had a late lunch and there was live music which was great. I ate the butter chicken curry, my friends had a beef pie and the chicken strips and chips – all of them were very tasty! Service was good and the waiter made some recommendations.“
“Beautiful”
“The restaurant has indoor and outdoor seating, but we chose to sit outside under the trees. It is so peaceful and quiet for breakfast, that we just sat there for an hour or two chatting.
The breakfast was great and service was fast and friendly.“
