"Thirsty Falls is a beautiful, tranquil place to escape the traffic and busy city. So quiet and peaceful, you wouldn't know that you're only an hour or so from Joburg.
The chalets are wonderfully private, and isolated from each other, adding to the feeling that you are far away from civilisation, giving you the perfect opportunity to relax and "reset".
Everything is immaculate and well looked after.
Jenny and Alan are both very welcoming, accommodating, friendly and helpful.
We will definitely visit again and again.

"What a beautiful and tranquil getaway. We absolutely loved our stay and can't wait for our next visit. Thank you so much to Jenny and Alan for being such awesome ans special hosts! "

Its not far from Johannesburg which is a bonus if you need to get out of town for a short break, and still feel relaxed and rejuvenated.

We will definitely be back soon. "

"One of the best places to go to for an absolutely relaxing 'break away from it all', yet still close enough from home! Jenny and Alan are fantastic hosts who brought fresh figs and packed my fire for toasting marshmallows. The surroundings are beautiful and lush, the chalet was private and lacked nothing, and the Ecopool was a wonderful new experience. Birds abound and the variety of bird sounds truly amazing. A bonus was the healing massage performed by a caring local massage therapist.
This is a place I will certainly return to! "

"Thirsty Falls was the perfect place for us to replenish our energies and recharge our state of being.
Set underneath the tranquil mountains surrounded by beautiful trees and bird songs, we managed to totally hide-away from the bustle of Jo'burg life.

We enjoyed the early morning walks and watching the sun rise and set every morning and evening.
One evening, we were lucky enough to view a spectacular lightening show as the rain nourished the land.

The accommodation was extremely comfortable with all the amenities needed. We stayed in the 2-bedroom Lavender cottage and we were pleasantly surprised at the spaciousness. The main bedroom had a romantic jet bath to soak all the stress away.

A lovely getaway place for a quick rejuvenation of mind.

Allan and Jenny are amazing hosts and we wish them everything of the best, we will definitely be back at their beautiful, cosy piece of heaven in the mountains, we did not miss having a TV!"

"A quiet place to chill and unwind."

"Jenny and Alan were very hospitable"

"We were blown away by how green the area was after some really good rains. The road leading to the lodge was a bit dodgy and we were a bit concerned about what we had gotten ourselves into, but there was no need to have worried. The accommodation was lovely!

The road leading to the lodge was a bit dodgy and we were a bit concerned about what we had gotten ourselves into, but there was no need to have worried. The accommodation was lovely! We had a wonderful stay. Jenny and Alan were perfect hosts and even managed to send us on our way with some indigenous plants to plant at home. I would recommend the Guest Farm to anyone that wants to get away from the rat race and just get back to nature."

"It's just the place to unwind and relax. The hosts are such nice people. The nature is a true testament of an Amazing God we serve. The chalet is luxurious with everything you need. We enjoyed it very much. "

"Beautiful setting, peaceful and just what we needed! Clean and neat accommodation and wonderful hospitality from Jenny.We will definitely go back! "

"We enjoyed our stay at Thirsty Falls Guest Farm. Cottage was spacious, very nice and neat. The views are spectacular! It was very peaceful. Allen and Jenny was very welcoming. I would definitely recommend it to others and will go back! Thank you Allen and Jenny! Natalia"

"We have discovered a gem in the beautiful Magaliesberg. Truly secluded and private but the chalets are modern and with all the furnishings of home. The perfect place for unwinding and soaking up of the beautiful surroundings.

We will definitely be returning."

"We were looking for a peaceful retreat for a few days and we found it here.

Protea Cottage was so well equipped and comfortable. We loved the beautiful views and lovely birdlife around. Our hosts were so friendly and helpful. We can definately recommend a stay here."

"Location was fantastic."

"I loved the peace, quiet and solitude. Accommodation very acceptable. Our hostess, Jenny, was simply amazing. I didn't like the poor condition of the farm road and the bugs and mosquitoes definitely did not enamour my wife."

"Peaceful and quiet - perfect for a get away. Beautiful views of nature. Cottages are well maintained and have everything you need."

"Wow! What a fantastic weekend we had! Quiet and serene! Thank you for the experience!"

"WOW, what an relaxing weekend.

Great scenery, quite and peaceful.

We stayed in the Protea house, clean, neat and cosy.

This is not a place for parties, but if you want to get away from the city noise and bustle, and enjoy some quite time and RnR with your partner, you won't regret Thirsty Falls.

Definitely recommendable!"

"What a wonderful experience.

Peace and quiet and the fireplace was a treat.

We saw 30 different types of birds just from our bedroom window."

"What we needed was a breakaway from a hectic couple of weeks and it was exactly that. It was a welcome switch from a hustle-bustle-life to a time-freeze (even if it was just for a weekend).

"What we needed was a breakaway from a hectic couple of weeks and it was exactly that. It was a welcome switch from a hustle-bustle-life to a time-freeze (even if it was just for a weekend). We enjoyed supreme privacy for the entire weekend and were oblivious to any form of life even though we were on an operating farm. Such was the kindness of the hosts that they upgraded our accommodation for the weekend when they realised they were in a position to do so. The unit was modern, well-equipped and comfortable. The jacuzzi-bath was a lot of fun and the fireplace helped set a laid-back mood in the evenings. The setting in nature is unsurpassed resulting in spectacular dawns. We will no doubt do this again in future."

"WOW WOW WOW, What an amazing place.......Words and pictures will never do the place justice, it is honestly out of this world, you will never regret staying at Thirsty Falls,

Jenny and Allen Thank you so much, you are awesome people "

"Thanks a lot very well equip stay and quiet and was great !"

"The cottages are very comfortable and very well equipped. The swimming pool is great for cooling off after a hot day. The peace and quite of the area is what makes a stay at Thirsty Falls so special. If you wish, you can be totally alone and see nobody else. What a relaxing experience."

"What a wonderful welcome - a self-catering cottage that is a home from home, with added romance! Very peaceful and private, with views that are stunning. We will definitely be back! Jenny and Alan made us feel most welcome!"

"We had a wonderful stay at Thirsty Falls. It was comfortable and pleasant. The rusks were delicious and the sunset was breathtaking. "

"We had a peaceful relaxed stay. The cottage was comfortable, fully and well catered for our needs. We will definitely be back. Thank you."

"We had a fantastic time at Thirsty Falls, Jenny and Alan were not only great hosts but great people and great company as well. Nothing was too much to ask for and in fact Jenny realised that us 5 male species needed to be looked after and that she certainly did, fantastic breakfast's and dinner's and Alan treated us to an exquisite Poitje dinner.

Accommodation was comfortable, clean and roomy even with 5 of us. The views are the reason people will always come back to Africa and an added bonus was the two dogs (Cassidy and Rudy) who gave it the complete family feel.

If anyone is in the Rustenburg area and they miss out on Thirsty Falls, well it's their loss, I will be back one day.

Thanks Jenny and Alan, you have left a lasting memory for 5 very happy Aussie visitors.

Brian"

"Had a great time, Jenny and Alan were great and the surroundings are beautiful. Would recommend to anyone!"

"We thoroughly enjoyed the escape from reality and the opportunity to mentally, spiritually and physically prepare ourselves for the year ahead!

The accomodation was basic but comfortable; the jet bath was a treat! The real luxury was in the majestic mountain we looked up upon from our bedroom and the panoramic view surrounding our chalet!

When we find ourselves as frazzled by life as we were, we’ll know just where to go to restore our souls; we’ll be back at Thirsty Falls!"

"We did not know what to expect, but this was a great surprise. The mountain view, the silence, no TV to obliterate the feelings, so we could take all of it in.

The morning was announced by the beautiful song from birds and the breeze from the veranda was amazing. We had the choice of either staying at the mountainside or view the busy world. Not much, save the busy streak of the traffic down there without the noise or with filtered noise by the bushes of different types.

To be honest, I could use the full two weeks up there without ever coming down to the crowds.

I would recommend this Farm to anyone that wants to have a taste of paradise."

"What a gem of a find. Thirsty Falls is a must. Fabulous breakaway. Beautiful Views, quietness, tranquility, and African sunsets, just perfect.

Hospitality was outstanding. Will be back again

Tanya and Kobus"

"The chalet was very comfortable and well situated with exceptional views all around. If you need a getaway to relax and unwind this would be the place. We had a great time and would recommend it to anyone.
Thanks Allan and Jenny."

"We had a lovely weekend. Felt revived and ready to tackle the rat race once again. Beautiful and quiet.We loved the fact that there is no tv in the chalets. We could reconnect and actually talk,"

The cottage was very clean and comfortable. The kitchen was well-equipped. It even had tupperware for storing leftovers. The huge shower and spa bath were both a treat."

"The place was well appointed, right on top of the mountain and the views from our balcony was spectacular. The environment was tranquil, just what we needed to have a relaxing stay. The owners was friendly, we had everything we needed and had no complaints."

"The place was environmentally refreshing and very relaxing. My bedroom was nicely equipped, the service was the best and I couldn’t find fault anywhere. I had no complaints about the accommodation and can certainly recommend. I’m definitely going back again."

"I really enjoyed my stay at Thirsty Falls with my partner. I could say it was a time we needed apart from the noise of everyday living and stress and just being surrounded by beautiful nature and ourselves made us connect with our spiritual lives. "

"The venue and the house was nice. We had a pleasant stay and enjoyed ourselves."

"When I got there gosh I got lost but in a very funny way as I expected the place to be just under my nose. Wow wow instead it was were I really hoped it will be in the MOUNTAINS, PEACEFUL MOUNTAINS :) it made me super happy. Quiet, peace, nature and a fresh breeze and it is a place to be in. Wow did..."

Wow did I mention that on that Saturday the rain was pouring but no no no! I’ve never seen rain in those mountains :) it’s like a movie, the midst, clouds, weather just NATURE!!!! I should come back again because I found the peace I needed- God bless."

"Our stay was amazing at Thirsty Falls. The chalet we stayed in was just as we saw it on their site, it was clean and the hospitality was above par, the tranquility of the location was just what we needed. I would definitely go back again."

"Thirsty Falls is awesome and very relaxing. The accommodation is fantastic.
Jenny and Alan very friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend it and will go back again.

"Thirsty Falls is beautiful, and the hosts extremely pleasant & gracious."

"I love my outdoor experience and Thirsty Falls Guest Farm made me want to stay even longer, the exceptional view of Rosemary was majestic. It was private and intimate, I felt like we were the only guests. Thirsty Falls has definitely made it to the top of my list of favourite outdoor homes.
"

"This is just the place when you need to chill out and do nothing. You can go out during the day or you can just sit and relax. Our hosts Jenny and Alan made us feel welcome and looked after. Thanks for a great get-away."

"Thank you for a wonderful and very relaxing stay. We had an amazing time away and can't wait to come back."

"We had an awesome experience. We will definitely be back with our friends."

"What an awesome experience, as a nature lover I always look for peace an quiet. I was concerned about the 3km dirt road, but had NO problem getting to our beautiful, clean, tasteful decor, cottage. Every effort to luxury and comfort was put into the lovely Lavender Cottage. We were greeted by our friendly host, Allan. It was so amazing waking up with birds chirping in the bush, we even saw a bushbuck on the way out.
Well done Jenny and Allan, I will visit your paradise again!"

"Our visit to Thirsty Falls was absolutely lovely. It was peaceful and tranquil and just what one needed to unwind."

"This place is just wonderful; everything was to my satisfaction with no complaints. Thanks for great accommodation."

"After arriving from the hustle and bustle of good old JHB, Jenny and Alan met us at the gate, showed us straight up to our cottage and checked to see if there was even anything we needed before we even had our bags out the car. Blissful silence, warm breeze, the smell of rosemary and friendly hosts like Alan and Jenny and we felt like we were in our own private little bubble with 5 star service at our beck and call almost as if we were still at home. The comfort, cleanliness and general atmosphere was like something out of a dream, we couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful, serene place like thirsty falls. Thanks guys, hope to see you soon! Cannot get the weekend out of our minds and as a newly engaged couple showed us how beautiful life is when it’s just us every now and again."

"Thirsty falls is a great place to refresh and renew. The cottage we stayed in (Protea), was well equipped and located on the perfect spot at the foot of the mountain. Jenny and Allan were more than hospitable and they gave us our privacy. For a home away from home, you can definitely stay here."

"Peaceful, neat, well furnished, with everything we needed and more. It is a calm and relaxing getaway location."

"Tranquility, beautiful view, comfortable.

We enjoyed it so much getting away to this place next to the Magaliesberg to catch a breath of fresh air."

"Thirsty Falls Farm is literally on the slopes of the Magaliesberg. The 5 cottages on the farm are close enough to each other to be rented by a family group, but they are also secluded and private, hidden by the natural bush. You won't know you have neighbours.

"Thirsty Falls Farm is literally on the slopes of the Magaliesberg. The 5 cottages on the farm are close enough to each other to be rented by a family group, but they are also secluded and private, hidden by the natural bush. You won't know you have neighbours. The cottage that we stayed in was very neat and tidy and well stocked with everything you need for a self-catering weekend. The lounge-dining room-kitchen and spacious bedroom are well planned. The bathroom has a shower and a spa bath (highly recommended!)

Jenny, our hostess, was very friendly and helpful. She came around late Saturday afternoon to see if we were happy.

The traffic police welcome weekend visitors to North West Province and they will even give you a welcoming ticket, if you don't relax and enjoy their beautiful scenery. Start the weekend at a very slow pace on the dirt road to Thirsty Falls. You don't need a 4X4, but you do need to slow down to 20-30km/h!"

"Wow, wow and wow again!! Absolutely awesome!! From the very warm and friendly hospitality, to the very beautiful, clean, neat and very well equipped cottage, to the breathtaking views and sunsets, to the wonderful tranquility and peace and quiet.

"Wow, wow and wow again!! Absolutely awesome!! From the very warm and friendly hospitality, to the very beautiful, clean, neat and very well equipped cottage, to the breathtaking views and sunsets, to the wonderful tranquility and peace and quiet. What an idyllic place. A highlight for us was sitting on the patio at night, snuggled up in a duvet with the rain pouring,a thunderstorm raging, and watching the breathtaking displays of lightning. Absolutely unforgettable and truly a small piece of heaven!"

"We really enjoyed our stay at this place, the hosts were very hospitable and took good care of us. The rooms are beautiful and the surrounding ares is splendid.

We got in touch with nature. It was a nice way to relax.
"

"We can recommend Thirsty Falls to anyone looking to break away from the city. The unit was clean and neat, and very comfortable. Everything you would usually expect to be in a self catering unit was provided. The views are spectacular, with the foot of the mountain on your doorstep."
