Best getaway for us and our 4-foot kids!
It was our third time at Saamrus together with our children, Sebastiaan the lab and Lily the beagle. We stayed in Akasia and as always enjoyed it very much. The dogs were in dog heaven with all the nice hiking trails and options. The person on duty came out specially on Sunday evening to show the city lads how the gas stove works. It was also clear that they had made an effort to better mark one of the walking routes after a previous visit and we got a bit lost because the arrows were not clear. Your service is excellent and Saamrus will definitely see us again! One of the best pet friendly places nice and close to Pta.

The chalet was a pleasant surprise - a real cozy "cottage in the mountains" with a fireplace and equipped with everything you need.
On arrival we were kindly welcomed by Vincent and at the small shop we were able to find wood and also lighters that we had forgotten at home. Bird lovers will be delighted with the variety of birds. Several hiking trails quickly lead you to beautiful views. The rondavel is spacious, tidy and well equipped with everything you need. Everything worked perfectly. Outside is clean, tidy braai facilities and a table and chairs. It is also definitely a pet and child friendly place to visit. I would heartily recommend it to anyone who wants to get away from the city noise for a bit, without sacrificing comfort.

Saamrus Guest Farm 's response
Thank you for your comments. We are glad that you found the stay relaxing and apologize for the unusual amount of flies and discomfort suffered because of it. It would seem that the chicken farm was waiting for the budget for the new financial year and did not keep up its normal controls. We have been in contact with top management and the problem is now brought under control. This is definitely not the norm here and hope that you will consider returning in future.

Had a great time, very nice view and quiet and peaceful but flies from the shepherd's farm nearby were troublesome.
The owners were aware of the fly problem and tried to spray to reduce it and also supplied us with spray. I think they should warn people in advance because we had trouble sleeping in the afternoons and the flies were overwhelming despite spraying. I was disappointed and didn't enjoy the visit as much because of it. Would rather not visit there again.

Lovely nature and a small but tidy and well-equipped house for a lovely weekend.
Was very unhappy after our peace was disturbed by unwise and unnecessary complaint. We are both 61 years old and camp often and wisely. I am really sorry for this negative report. Unnecessarily bothered for a complaint in person that our music coming from a small solar panel radio was "too loud" at 17:15 Saturday during loadshedding. This of course spoiled our entire 40 year wedding anniversary. The radio was set to the same volume what people normally speak. I clearly heard the man talking from the gate while I was working at the braai. He introduced himself as board member Saamrus "Piet". The talk at the cottage just below us disturbed us too (presumably him) as well as all the barking of the dogs, but we agree that it is on a mountainside and Piet should have understood that too, he stays there then.

Pleasant resort, location good and quiet. A nice view from above.
Akasia Huisie is definitely not intended for over 60s. Since we don't have a 4x4 vehicle, it was really difficult to walk back and forth. One of us had a bad fall in the rocky garden and we had a bad scare because we couldn't help each other up and because our car was parked below. It was a truly unpleasant experience. A railing there will have to be installed as one can fall badly there. Could you please mention the gradient especially for elderly people and recommend that a 4x4 vehicle is a recommendation. I also recommend making a plan with the decoders. Acquire some and lend them to the residents at cost. You just want to be calm and some of us wanted to watch the rugby match.

It's a very nice and peaceful place with nice walking routes and neat. Everything you need in a cottage. There are only a few things that bothered. Didn't know only 4x4 cars could go to the upper houses. Luckily we have a bigger car and were able to drive up. But it shook so much that my 3-month-old baby and I ran up instead. Our luggage in the cart they must have brought up with a motorcycle thing. There are very many flies in the house. It is fenced for your dog, but there are only stones and dirt, so not very easy for the dogs to walk around the yard.

Dankie vir al die positiewe opmerkings en voorstelle.
Daar was altyd 'n asblik by the swembad. Wonder waarheen hy verdwyn het? Ons sal ondersoek instel en seker maak daar is 'n asplik.
Ons kan ongelukkig nie 'n braai by die swembad sit nie, want as daar van die gaste is wat as 'n groep geboek het, is hulle geneig om die swembad area oor te vat en dan voel ander gaste onwelkom om ook daar te sit of the swem. Om die rede is daar net braaigeriewe by die cottages.
Daar is chips en shokolade by die Ontvangs te koop. Ons het voorheen meer eetgoed daar aangehou, maar het gevind dat dit oud word en nie vinnig genoeg verkoop nie, aangesien die meeste gaste hulle eie goed saambring. Dus het ons besluit om nie 'n groot verskeidenheid aan te hou nie,net genoeg vir 'n noodgeval.

Saamrus Guest Farm is the ideal getaway with your partner. The cottages are neat and fully equipped. The silence and view make the location a real break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. If you need time alone with your partner this is the ideal place to just spend time together again. Even families can travel here to spend quality time together. Although the accommodation is a bit more on the expensive side, it is worth it. The location is also not far from Johannesburg and Pretoria - just about an hour's drive.

A dog paradise with fantastic hiking trails.
We had a great time, and it was important to me that our dogs could explore the world safely, get exercise and also rest well. The hiking trails were absolutely the highlight! There are a variety of routes that offer the most beautiful views and the paths were well visible. Saamrus is really excellently designed for dogs. The bedrooms were a bit small and the Suikerbos cottage doesn't actually sleep six adults comfortably, but everything was nice and clean and the kitchen was surprisingly well equipped. I know the Magalies area is struggling with an excess of flies this year, but this was particularly bad. That would be the one thing that would keep me from coming again, although Saamrus really put a lot of effort into making it bearable (people coming every day to spray, fly swatters, incense, poison, flytraps, etc.), and it seems ' is a seasonal problem. Thank you for a nice holiday!

Dankie vir al die positiewe opmerkings. Dit maak al die harde werk die moeite werd. Ja, daar was 'n buitengewone en onverwagte probleem hierdie Desember met vliee. Ons sien in die media dat daar hierdie jaar oral oor Gauteng meer vliee as gewoonlik was as gevolg van veranderde weerpatrone. Alles is egter nou weer onder beheer en terug na normale toestande.by Saamrus.

It is as they promise a getaway weekend for couples who want to be left alone, super quiet with a great mountain view.
They just need to connect with people and if the house is on a mountain, recommend people to use a van or 4x4. We had to walk up the mountain to the highest house. We went home later to collect our Fortuner because we didn't have a chance to take everything down. The cottage is super comfortable for a forest break and has everything. Places are nice clean and very private. Didn't feel scared at all and everything was very peaceful. You can only take your clothes and food with you, everything is in the houses.

Suggest that the management spend funds in their DStv's upgrade so that visitors can bring their own "Explorer Decoder". Current connections only work for the very old decoders.

We had a lovely rest together in a cozy and warm guest house with plenty of atmosphere.
Hoehoep is a wonderful little hole in a fairy tale world. Forest, river, winding walkways make for a great getaway.

Glorious. Could rest and enjoy nature.
The location was not too far for a short getaway. My dogs enjoyed it very much. I think they would like to stay there. However, it was a bit noisy with the noise of, I think, a chicken farm and the road to Rustenburg. I suppose we heard it more because we were so high. Nevertheless, it was great. My husband went cycling on other roads and I could just sit and take nature in with a paintbrush. There was a tick or two on the dogs, so I would recommend that owners follow up and wash and dip their pets when they get home.

Neat, well furnished, romantic.
Wonderful. Stayed in Karee. Neat and clean. Was able to brave the steep road without a 4x4, though would recommend a vehicle with higher clearance and strong enjin! The fireplace and cement bath was so romantic! Went walking with our 4 legged children. The setup was ideal for dogs. Drinking water was supplied for them, even a poop scoop. Would recommend to any couple of family seeking a breakaway with their furry friends. My husband unfortunately lost his wedding ring in the bush! We suspect it might be in, or just outside the premises of Karee Huisie. We would appreciate it so much if other guests could possibly return it to the owners, Chris or Annetjie, we even offer a reward. It's so sentimental for us. Thank you!

Little paradise
The cottages on the hill can only be reached by foot or 4x4. After the somewhat wild ride to Olienhout, our four-legged friends were welcomed with a large bowl of water and the stoepie is a cool place with a breathtaking view. Here on the hill you can imagine you are alone in the forest. After a nice hiking trail, cooling off in the pool is heavenly. There is room for the dogs to wait in the cool and nice space to walk around the swimming area. The cottage is well furnished with everything you need. Candles and a fireplace for the winter create a romantic atmosphere. In the summer, mosquitoes and flies can be troublesome, so take poison with you. There is a small kiosk where you can get wood and some refreshments as well as much needed tick stuff for the animals. A nice carefree weekend get away type place.

Saamrus is what its name says: "Here we will rest together". It was wonderful to just take in the peaceful surroundings. The hiking trails were not too difficult. The accommodation was clean and very well furnished. Would recommend anytime and will definitely visit again.

We were really impressed. Everything was perfect! Only thing I can say is that there should be a little more hot water, especially in such a large bath on a romantic getaway in the cold.
