All was exceptional during the stay. Very nice and spacious room, excellent service from the owner himself and the dinner and breakfast were better than what you would get in most restaurants.

Une belle expérience !
C'était très différent. Cet hébergement à la ferme, avait divers intérêts. Nous étions les seuls clients et cela influe probablement notre jugement. Très bien reçu, ce fut si pas le meilleur au moins l'un des meilleurs repas de notre long périple Namibien (18 logements différents). Un petit déjeuner de produit frais à tomber. Un verre pris au coin du feu avec la mère des propriétaires et un guide. Un game drive de nuit que je vous conseille. Par contre attention à la promenade autour de la ferme. Environ 11 km en plein soleil. Une épreuve. Nous étions parti pour sois disant une heure de marche. La route pour arriver à la ferme est très correcte, et tous les ouvriers agricoles vous saluent sur la route. Pas eu la chance de voir le porc épic. Citronnier magnifique dans la cour centrale. Profitez des produits fermiers de haut vol. Enjoy

Pour une étape de charme
Très jolie guest farm excentrée de 25 km de la route principale entre Grootfontein et Rundu. Mais cela vaut le détour ! Belles grandes chambres confortables. Repas bien cuisines avec un maximum de produits de la ferme. Félicitations aussi à John qui assure une excellente communication pendant le séjour.
