It's the perfect place to recharge while escaping the pressures of city life and with the Midlands Meander on our doorstep you can be as busy or as quiet as you choose. The farm is now fully off Eskom power so load shedding is a distant memory.

Forest Falls Treehouse
Enjoy the serenity of nature on the edge of the Umgeni Valley. Conveniently placed less than 10 minutes away from Hilton Village. This is no normal cottage. Our Forest Falls Treehouse is built at the confluence of two streams. Perched amongst trees, birds are constant visitors while shy nyala often make an appearance.

EcoTreehouse luxury off-grid cabin

It’s perfect for couples, solo travellers, or small families wanting to unplug without compromising on comfort.

Swim, stargaze, wander the trails, or meet the horses — this land invites you to slow down.
