in Magaliesburg, West Rand,

PETS STAY FREE!
Pet-friendly, Self-catering Accommodation in Magaliesburg, Gauteng.
Do you dream of wide open views, walking along a forest path or sitting under a
tree listening to the gentle sound of water flowing...
What you need is a piece of peace, tucked away in a slumbering woodland valley
between a tranquil stream and the foothills of the ancient Magaliesberg
Mountains. Just one hour's drive from Johannesburg, you'll find Saamrus -
pet-friendly, self-catering, comfortable and charming farm cottages surrounded
by 500 hectares of unspoiled nature, bird life and walking freedom.
A better rest than all the rest.
You can't be in the top ten if you don't get to the bottom of what pet-lovers
want.
If you would rather stay at home than leave the four legged members of your
family behind, why not bring them along? Saamrus is a home-from-home for you and
your best friend. The owners of Saamrus Guest Farm: Chris, Annatjie and Leonard
(their son) treat their two dogs Jackie and Riffels, the 6 cats as beloved
family members. They understand completely that while you want comfort, safety
and charm for yourselves, you want the same for your pets - after all, they are
your four legged children.
That's why Saamrus is one of the top ten pet-friendly getaways in the country. A
special pet welcome awaits all breeds of socialised and house-trained dogs. Even
cats and caged birds will feel at home. Each cottage has a fenced garden to keep
your pets safe while you take a nap or generally indulge in some human-only
relaxation. When you're strolling with your dogs along the river banks or
heading out on longer hill-rambles on the 500 hectares of Saamrus walking
freedom, we invite your dog to run off the lead. Walkies freedom, oh joy!
Each cottage at Saamrus has a special character, with every convenience to make
your stay more comfortable and memorable. (Any suggestions are eagerly
appreciated).
All the cottages are at least 50m apart, except Tarentaal and Kiewiet which are
about 15m apart. We have used reeds and hedges for screening to give you maximum
privacy and seclusion.
All cottages are equipped for self catering:
- Each cottage has a fenced garden for the dogs.

- There are fireplaces in all cottages as well as ceiling or
loose-standing fans and wall heaters for comfort in winter and summer.
