Our countryside sanctuary is nestled in a tranquil valley of the Magaliesberg foothills. Founded and operated by the Geldenhuys family, alongside our dedicated team, Saamrus is a true family-run farm comprising nine private, self-catering cottages spread across our peaceful farm.
We invite you to step away from the city rush, unplug, and discover the simple pleasures of country living. Whether you are looking for a romantic getaway, an outdoor adventure, or a relaxing family stay, Saamrus is the place to escape, slow down, and reconnect with nature,
The Saamrus Experience
True Pet-Friendly Freedom
Your four-legged family members stay completely free! Every cottage features a private, fully fenced garden for safe, worry-free roaming. Best of all, well-socialized dogs can experience the ultimate freedom of running off leash along our designated mountain, forest, and river trails.
Abundant Nature & Hiking
Explore our peaceful 14-hectare farm and enjoy exclusive walking access to an additional 500 hectares of pristine mountain veld and grasslands. Discover bird-rich shaded river paths, scenic viewpoints, and adventurous 2km to 8km plateau hikes.
Romantic Country Comfort
Unwind in rustic self-catering cottages thoughtfully spaced to prioritize your total privacy and seclusion. Spend cozy evenings together by an indoor wood-burning fireplace and enjoy an authentic, peaceful country braai under the stars.

Wonderful getaway and rest for your soul
Was a lovely getaway. The cottage was so cute, neat and clean. We had a great stay. Our dogs enjoyed it just as much. The hiking trails are well maintained and we were able to hike comfortably.
