A wonderful scenic cottage, scary to reach but well worth it once on the hill. The peacefulness was overwhelming as we can just get away from the rat race in Jozi. Will definitely be back and only one cottage to stay in – the paradise on the hill. It reminds me of the movie 'Out of Africa'. Thanks for an awesome experience.

It's really lovely here – we felt like the only people alive. A lovely place to escape the madness of reality and even better that we can bring the dogs along to share the experience. Will definitely be back to stay in this beautiful little cottage and to walk the hills and by the river.

It all started by leaving the computer open when little Kalula decided it was time for a couple of days out of town.

We were lucky that she found a pet-friendly place and allowed us to come with her. What a delight to find such a well-managed and comfortable home away from home. The lemon-infused rusks were only one of the pleasant surprises. Thank you.

Certainly food for the soul. We've recharged our batteries and are now ready for the next few months in the rat-race. Thanks for an awesome breakaway with our 4-legged child.

Thank you very much for a lovely getaway. We enjoyed the peace and quiet immensely. Awesome bath.

This is our second visit in less than a year and once again we enjoyed the absolute peace and quiet Saamrus has to offer. We could literally spend the entire weekend on the porch, with nothing more than good books, good wine and good company. Although we live less than 100 kms from here, it felt like we were miles away from the city. We love bringing our dogs here and are already planning our next weekend at Saamrus. The cottages are exquisite and beautifully decorated – so comfortable. Thanks again for a wonderful weekend.

We always come back (4 or 5 times now). Fantastic up here and so much freedom for Misty and Bailey. We went for very long walks over the hills and dogs exhausted us – good for our health (exercise)

Many birds, from blue waxbills to black-shouldered kite. Our dogs had a ball. We enjoyed our second stay and will be back soon. Keep it natural.

It was peaceful as usual. Thanks again. It's now our 5th time and we will be back again.

Thank you very much. It's one of the nicest places we have visited in South Africa. We thoroughly enjoyed every minute of our stay.

This is a beautiful cottage, with a lovely view of the hills. Heard the mooing of a cow, the baa-ing of a sheep, barking of dogs, cock-a-doodle-doo of a rooster, crackle of a fire, buzzing of flies, droning of airplanes, chirping of crickets at night, a jackal calling – these are the most beautiful sounds of nature. Seized the moment and had it all to ourselves.
