Böhm's Zeederberg is a small owner-run Country House situated in the picturesque Sabie River Valley of the Mpumalanga Drakensberg, South Africa, close to the Kruger National Park in a Malaria Free Area.

Mrs Böhm and her German speaking family have been your friendly hosts since 1975, and have been awarded a Four Star Grading by the Tourism Grading Council of South Africa.
The Country House is surrounded by all the major tourist attractions - 30 minutes drive to the Kruger National Park, 30 minutes drive to the Panorama Route with all the waterfalls, and 1 hour's drive to the majestic Blyde River Canyon.


The garden is filled with beautiful indigenous trees, which have been labelled for easy identification.
The garden is a birdwatcher's paradise, with two different kinds of Turaco nesting in the huge wild fig trees.
For those seeking serenity, the garden offers many private corners to simply sit and watch the beauty of nature or to read a good book from our library.
The farm consists of 60 hectares of indigenous bush, alive with varied wildlife: small buck including Duiker and Bushbuck, Blue Vervet Monkeys and Bushbabies, many small mammals like Mongoose and Bats, and a myriad of indigenous birds.
