Twin Falls Farm

Self-catering cottages situated in the unique Karkloof Mistbelt Forest, via a rural KwaZulu Natal route, on the banks of the beautiful Mholweni river. A rustic setting and an authentic farm experience – an escape into the country!

We have 3 cottages: Ellem (sleeps 8), Chimes (sleeps 4) and Col’s (sleeps 2) Cottage. There are also some rustic camping options: Converted Stable and Will’s Hut


Ellem Cottage

Our comfortable larger cottage “Ellem” sleeps 8 in 3 bedrooms:

  • 1st bedroom has a double bed and en-suite bathroom with shower and toilet,
  • 2nd bedroom has a double bed,
  • 3rd bedroom has 4 single beds, including 1 bunk bed, and the other bunk bed has been separated into 2 single beds.

There is a 2nd bathroom with bath, shower and toilet, and there is also a 3rd single toilet.

If you need more persons to stay, the space is very large as shown in the pictures. You are welcome to bring extra mattresses and bedding. We would charge per person per night for this facility. Ellem has crockery and cutlery for 12 people.


Chimes Cottage

Our delightful smaller cottage “Chimes” sleeps 4 in 2 bedrooms with a double bed in each, and each having en-suite bathrooms with shower and toilet, and one bathroom also having a bath. The perfect space for a small family or group of friends to relax together and explore the KZN mistbelt forest and grassland, and waterfalls!

About

Twin Falls Farm

This working farm is situated in a peaceful corner of the rare KwaZulu-Natal midlands mist-belt grassland and forest biome. It is a South African Natural Heritage Site with rolling green hills, wild natural bush, beautiful indigenous fauna and flora, and hidden life-giving streams – including two magnificent twin falls deep in the forest.

Originally part of the larger farm “Braco” which has belonged to the Shaw family since the mid 1800’s, “Twin Falls” has recently been bought back into the “Braco” Shaw family. This has been after belonging to other landowners for a few decades. Because of the property’s limited agricultural value, due to the natural bush and very steep terrain, it has preserved its pristine natural beauty and untouched elements. We have decided to share our special place with the public, and have a number of self-catering accommodation options, as well as day visitor access. Please contact us for more information – all visits are by appointment only.
