“Nice journey break”
Lovely facilities, great staff and great food, including home-made bread! Nice gardens, with an interesting water feature, nice pool area. Nice to sit on the veranda in the evening and watch the springbok, widlebees and hartebees come down to drink, as well as the horses and the goats,

“Great find in the Bush”
This was an incredible find on the Trans-Kalahari highway, just outside Gobabis. It was such a nice place to stay, after having come from the bush, with more bush surrounding you. The water hole had quite a bit of traffic (we were in bed early so probably missed the best!). The food is delicious, both dinner and breakfast. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. The room is magnificent!! And really comfortable! We will definitely stop there again if we go that route in the future.
