Cozy and peaceful.

It was such a lovely, relaxing getaway with our two dogs. We went there to get away from the hustle, and it did wonders! The sound of wind through the trees, fire crackling in the fireplace, and different bird sounds (other than always hearing a hadeda) LOL! was indeed tranquility!

We are very happy that you enjoyed your stay at Saamrus and hope you will visit again soon.

Beste wegbreek vir ons en ons 4-voet kinders!

Dit was ons derde keer by Saamrus saam ons woefkinders, Sebastiaan die lab en Lily die beagle. Ons het in Akasia gebly en soos altyd dit vreeslik baie geniet. Die honde was in die hondehemel met al die lekker staproetes en opsies. Die persoon aan diens het spesiaal uitgekom Sondagaand om die stadsjapies te wys hoe werk die gasstoof. Dit was ook duidelik dat hulle moeite gedoen het om een van die staproetes beter te merk na 'n vorige keer se kuier en ons ietwat verdwaal het omdat die pyltjies nie duidelik was nie. Julle diens is uitstekend en Saamrus sien ons beslis weer! Een van die beste dierevriendelike plekke lekker naby Pta.

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.

Heerlik rustig.

Ons het heerlik gerus by Saamrus. Die groot kuierstoep was 'n hoogtepunt. Ons het die wandelroetes geniet, alhoewel die langer roetes nogal toegegroei was. Die huisie is gerieflik, skoon en goed toegerus.

Dit was lekker, goed uitgerus. Honde kind het dit ook geniet.

Van die 3 plekke waar ons al gebly het, is Saamrus Guest Farm beslis die beste. Aanbeveling: Tyd om nuwe beddegoed aan te skaf. Dit is skoon, maar verslete. Alles wat jy nodig het, is beskikbaar.

Nice environment. Nice walking paths. Many, many flies at the houses.

The nature was beautiful and walking paths very nice. Enjoyed taking our puppies along and they had a great time playing in the river. Unfortunately, there were an incredible amount of flies. Just at the cottage. Something can be done about it.

Die chalet was 'n aangename verrassing - 'n regte gesellige "huisie in die berge" met 'n kaggel en toegerus met alles wat jy nodig het.

Met aankoms is ons vriendelik verwelkom deur Vincent en by die klein winkeltjie kon ons hout kry en ook aanstekers wat ons tuis vergeet het. Voëlliefhebbers sal in hulle noppies wees met die verskeidenheid voëls. Verskeie staproetes lei jou vinnig na mooi uitsigte. Die rondawel is ruim, netjies en goed toegerus met alles wat jy nodig het. Alles het perfek gewerk. Buitekant is skoon, netjiese braaigeriewe en 'n tafel en stoele. Dit is ook beslis 'n troeteldier- en kindvriendelike kuierplek. Ek sal dit met vrymoedigheid aanbeveel vir enigiemand wat 'n bietjie van die stadsgeraas wil wegkom, sonder om gerief prys te gee.

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.

Jammer om te hoor dat julle nie bewus was van die huisies op die bult wat net per 4 x 4 of te voet bereik kan word nie. Hierdie inligting word duitdelik gestel op die besprekingsinligting en op die webtuiste. Saamrus het 'n swembad en staproetes. Verder is dit 'n plek om te ontspan en die natuur te geniet.

Nice and relaxing.

It's very cosy, you're allowed to take your dogs with as there is secure fencing around the units and walking trails. Overall was relaxing but they could do more to work on the number of flies from the chicken farm next door, which is a bit off-putting.

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.

Lekker gerus!

Ek en my twee honde is vir die langnaweek weer Saamrus toe. Hoep-Hoep is goed toegerus en is pragtig. Die voëltjies was volop en het lekker gesing om die huisie. Die staproetes was gemaklik om te loop langs die rivier af en dis verskriklik mooi. Die werkers is altyd vriendelik en gewillig om te help. Baie dankie Saamrus vir 'n lekker kort blaaskans!

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.

Fantastic place to stay, and will definitely be back.

One small negative, we stayed in Karee, and the fridge in that unit needs replacing, firstly the door doesn't stay closed and it makes a lot of noise, which impacts the ability to sleep.

Thank you for the great review. We will have a look at the fridge see if it can be fixed or need replacing. Hope you will visit again sson.

Rustige, gasvrye, plattelandse atmosfeer.

Dis stil, rustig en privaat. Met gasvrye personeel. Hout en ander essensiële produkte beskikbaar op die plaas. Naby genoeg aan omgewing se besienswaardighede. Ons het ons kuier baie geniet.

Lekker gerus.

Dit was wonderlik om net saam te rus! Die huisie was skoon en netjies, goed toegerus met alles wat mens benodig. Voorstel is om dalk gasgeyiser te installeer, die bad vat baie water om vol te tap.

Rustige omgewing, dierevriendelik.

Ons het heerlik gekuier saam met ons 3 woefiekinders. Die rondawel was besonder goed toegerus en alles was skoon en netjies. Die omheining om die rondawel is definitief 'n goeie aanwins aangesien ons dierekinders veilig buite kon rondbeweeg. Ons het 'n bietjie gestap (ondanks die nat weer) en dit werklik baie geniet. Ons sal beslis weer gaan kuier!

Quiet environment, animal friendly.

We had a great time with our 3 crazy kids. The rondavel was particularly well equipped and everything was clean and tidy. The enclosure around the rondavel is definitely a good asset as our animal children could move around safely outside. We walked a bit (despite the wet weather) and really enjoyed it. We will definitely visit again!

Very relaxed and enjoyable stay.

Everything was clean and tidy. The path up is only accessible with a 4x4 which we did not know, but there was parking available and porters to help take your luggage up, so only a minor inconvenience. Also there were some wild mice that scurried around and one even bit me as I was sleeping when I pushed my arm under the pillow. Gave me a bit of a fright and woke me up, but it's rather funny in hindsight.

Long weekend stay - Hoephoep Cottage.

My teenage daughter, our two dogs and I had a very peaceful and relaxing stay. The staff were friendly and helpful and proactively investigated a veld fire on adjacent farm to ensure our safety. Cottage was wel equipped with additional blankets specially prepared for use at the campfire. We slept warmly in spite of the cold nights thanks to a fireplace and electric blankets.

Aangename oord, ligging goed en stil. 'n Mooi uitsig van bo.

Akasia Huisie is beslis nie bedoel vir 60-plussers nie. Aangesien ons nie oor 'n 4x4 voertuig beskik nie, was dit regtig moeilik om heen en weer te stap. Een van ons het lelik geval in die rotsagtige tuin en ons het lelik geskrik omdat ons mekaar nie kon ophelp nie en omdat ons motor onder geparkeer was. Dit was werklik 'n onaangename ervaring. 'n Reling daar sal aangebring moet word aangesien mens lelik daar kan val. Kan u asseblief melding maak van die gradient veral vir ouerige mense en aanbeveel dat 'n 4x4 voertuig 'n aanbeveling is. Ek beveel ook aan dat u 'n plan maak met die dekodeerders. Skaf 'n paar aan en leen dit op koste aan die inwoners. Mens wil net rustig wees en van ons wou die rugbywedstryd kyk.

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.

Lekker, maar party goed het gepla.

Dis 'n baie lekker rustige plek met lekker staproetes en netjies. Alles wat jy in 'n huisie benodig. Daar is net paar goedjies wat gepla het. Nie geweet net 4x4-motors kan na die boonste huisies toe ry nie. Gelukkig het ons 'n groterige kar en kon ons opry. Maar dit het so geskud dat ek en my 3 maande baba eerder opgeloop het. Ons bagasie in die waentjie moes hulle met 'n motorfiets-ding opgebring het. Daar is erg baie vlieë in die huisie. Dit is wel omhein vir jou hond, maar daar is net klippe en grond, so nie baie maklik vir die honde om in die erf rond te loop nie.

Nice, but some things bothered.

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.

My daughter and I had a lovely stay midweek and enjoyed the peace and quiet of the farm.

We were both very tired and lazed at the cottage. We made food, read and slept and soaked up the beauty of nature. I went for a walk and photographed a lot of wild flowers in the fields adjacent to the cottage. On the whole the venue is very well organised and we were left in peace. The only thing I would like to recommend, is to provide thinner bedding for the summer months or alternatively to take cool bedding along yourself. We did and that was very useful, as it was very warm.

Baie lekker plekkie, sal beslis Saamrus Guest Farm aanbeveel.

Die staproetes baie oulik en verskeie wandelpaadjies om van te kies. Hul verskaf ook 'n map van al die staproetes. Waterbakke by jou blyplek neergesit en so ook by die swembad. Baie stil en rustige plekkie en baie netjies. Die hondekinders het dit so baie geniet. Sal graag die volgende voorstelle wil maak indien moontlik. 'n Asblik by die swembad en so ook n braaier of 2 by die swembad plaas. Ys op die perseel verkoop, so ook meer lekkergoed of iets om te peusel. As jy eers daar is, is jy nie lus om winkel toe ry nie.

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.

'n Wegbreek in afsondering.

Saamrus Guest Farm is die ideale wegbreek saam met jou lewensmaat. Die kothuise is netjies en ten volle toegerus. Die stilte en uitsig maak die ligging 'n ware wegbreek van die gewoel van die alledaagse lewe af. As jy tyd alleen saam met jou maat nodig het is dit die ideale plek om net weer tyd saam te spandeer. Selfs families kan hierheen reis om kwaliteittyd saam te spandeer. Alhoewel die verblyf 'n bietjie meer aan die duur kant is, is is dit die moeite werd. Die ligging is ook nie ver van Johannesburg en Pretoria af nie - net so oor 'n uur se ry. Gaan rus lekker saam op Saamrus Guest Farm.

'n Honde-paradys met fantastiese staproetes.

Ons het heerlik gekuier, en dit was vir my belangrik dat ons honde die wêreld veilig kon verken, oefening kry en ook lekker rus. Die staproetes was absoluut die hoogtepunt! Daar is 'n verskeidenheid roetes wat die mooiste uitsigte bied en die paadjies was goed sigbaar. Saamrus is regtig uitstekend vir honde ontwerp. Die slaapkamers was bietjie knap en die Suikerbos kothuis slaap nie eintlik ses grootmense gemaklik nie, maar alles was mooi skoon en die kombuis was verbasend goed ingerig. Ek weet die Magalies-gebied sukkel vanjaar met 'n oormaat vlieë, maar dit was besonder erg. Dit sal die een ding wees wat my weerhou om weer te kom, hoewel Saamrus regtig baie moeite gedoen het om dit draaglik te maak (mense wat elke dag kom spuit, vlieëplakke, wierook, gif, flytraps, ens.), en dit blykbaar 'n seisoenale probleem is. Dankie vir 'n lekker vakansie!

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.

Dit is soos hulle belowe 'n wegbreeknaweek vir pare wat alleen gelaat wil word, super rustig met 'n wonderlike berg-uitsig.

Hulle moet net met mense in verbinding kom en as huis op berg is, mense aanbeveel om 'n bakkie of 4x4 te gebruik. Ons moes oploop teen die berg na die heel hoogste huis. Ons is later huistoe om ons Fortuner te gaan haal want het nie kans gesien om alles af te dra nie. Die kothuis is super gerieflik vir 'n boswegbreek en het alles. Plekkies is mooi skoon en baie privaat. Het glad nie bang gevoel nie en alles was baie rustig. Jy kan net jou klere en kos saamvat, alles is in die huise.

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.

Rustig en troeteldiervriendelik.

Stel voor die bestuur bestee fondse in hul DStv se opgradering sodat besoekers hulle eie "Explorer Decoder" kan saam bring. Huidige konneksies werk net vir die baie ou dekodeerders. Swembad kort ook 'n bietjie aandag. Verder was die verbly genotvol en kon ons rus en die troeteldiere besig hou met al die staproetes en oop velde. Dit was my derde besoek en sal weer kom.

Quiet and pet friendly.

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. Pool also needs some attention. Furthermore, the stay was enjoyable and we could rest and keep the pets busy with all the hiking trails and open fields. This was my third visit and will come again.

Ons het heerlik saamgerus in 'n gesellige en hartlike gastehuisie met volop atmosfeer.

Hoephoep is 'n wonderlike gatehuisie in 'n sprokieswereld. Bos, rivier, kronkelende wandelpaadjies sorg vir 'n wonderlike wegbreek.

Hoehoep is a wonderful little hole in a fairy tale world. Forest, river, winding walkways make for a great getaway.

Heerlik. Kon rus en die natuur geniet.

Die ligging was nie te ver vir 'n kort wegbreek nie. My honde het dit vreeslik geniet. Ek dink hulle sal graag daar wil bly. Dit was egter bietjie raserig met 'n gedreun van ek dink 'n hoenderplaas van bure en die pad na Rustenburg. Ek neem aan ons het dit meer gehoor omdat ons so hoog was. Nieteenstaande was dit heerlik. My man het gaan fietsry op ander paaie en ek kon net sit en die natuur inneem met 'n verfkwas. Daar was 'n bosluis of twee op die honde, so ek sal aanbeveel dat eienaars wel net opvolg en was en dip na tuiskoms.

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.

Netjies, goed ingerig, romanties.

Ons verblyf was heerlik! Het tuisgegaan in Karee. Baie netjies en skoon. Kon die steil pad trostseer sonder 'n 4x4 (maar sal dit aanbeveel vir 'n voertuig wat hoog van grond af is en sterk enjin het!) Die kaggel en sementbad maak dit baie romanties! Heerlik gaan stap met ons 4-poot-kinders. Baie goed ingerig gewees vir ons honde. Drinkwater vir hulle voorsien en selfs 'n "poop-scoop". Sal dit aanbeveel vir enige paartjie/gesin wat wil wegbreek saam met hulle dierekinders. My man het ongelukkig sy trouring in die bos verloor! Ons vermoed dit is in of net buite die Karee huisie se erf. Ek en my man sal opreg dankbaar wees as dit aan die eienaars, Chris of Annetjie, besorg kan word. Ons bied selfs 'n beloning. Die ring is moontlik nie veel werd, Titanium - maar dit het soveel sentiment. By voorbaat dank.

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!

Great, geen klagtes behalwe dat mense van agter die berg droë hout kom afbreek van bome af naby ons rondawel wat ons bietjie onverwags gevang het. Die mense wat daar werk is baie gaaf. Mooi uitsig.

Klein paradys

Die huisies op die heuwel kan slegs bereik word per voet/poot of 4x4. Na die effe wilde rit tot by Olienhout is ons vierpotige vriende verwelkom met 'n groot bak water en die stoepie is koel lafenis met 'n asemrowende uitsig. Hier op die heuwel kan jy jou verbeel jy is alleen in die bos. Na 'n lekker staproete is afkoel in die swembad hemels. Daar is plek vir die honde om te wag in die koelte en lekker ruimte om te stap rondom die swemarea. Die huisie is goed ingerig met al die nodige. Kerse en 'n kaggel vir die winter sorg vir 'n romantiese atmosfeer. In die somer kan muskiete en vliëe lastig wees, so vat gifgoed saam. Daar is 'n klein kiosk waar mens hout en 'n paar verversings kan kry asook baie nodige bosluisgoed vir die diere. 'n Lekker sorgvrye naweek wegkom tipe plek.

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.

Wonderlike juweel in Magaliesburg.

Ons het die hele pakket - kinders en honde - en kon nie vir beter gevra het nie! Die Plaashuis was 'n fees om in te bly - al was dit reënerig, het ons almal ons gate uit geniet! Gaan beslis gou weer.

Heerlik en rustig!

Saamrus is wat sy naam sê: "Hier gaan ons saam rus". Dit was wonderlik om net die rustige omgewing in te neem. Die staproetes was nie te moeilik nie. Die verblyf was skoon en baie goed ingerig. Sal dit enige tyd aanbeveel en sal beslis weer daar gaan kuier.

Ons was baie beïndruk met die plek. Als was perfek! Enigste iets wat ek kan sê is daar kon meer warm water wees, veral in so groot bad op 'n romantic getaway in die koue.
