Darren and Anna have created something very special in their corner of Namibia. We felt very welcome and enjoyed sharing stories with other travellers. Their hospitality was "next level".

Darren and Anna are the most incredible hosts - they are kind, down to earth and take care of everything! We had a wonderful time at the farm, loved spending time with all the animals and enjoyed horse rides, hikes and outstanding gourmet meals....

The hosts were friendly and made us feel right at home. They are eager to share information about the farm life and the horses. The home cooked meals were excellent. We thoroughly enjoyed the walking trail and the drive to the sunset viewpoint.

Darren and Ana are wonderful host. We had a very good dinner with them and laughed a lot. The apple crumble was better than the famous apple cake in Solitare. They showed us their farm and have lovely dogs. We can highly recommed the farm.

Was man wissen muss: die Unterkunft befindet sich im nichts. Auch die Anfahrt ist Anspruchsvoll und bis 500 m vor dem Ziel sieht man nicht viel außer Natur. Wir lieben das und haben uns das genauso vorgestellt. Alles war perfekt. Unterkunft war...

Anna and Darren
Nestled amidst Namibia's breathtaking landscapes, our newly built farmstead offers modern comforts with a traditional African farming lifestyle. All guests are welcomed into our home, instantly become best friends with our puppies, and are invited to explore our family's 22,000 hectares to their hearts' content. My wife and I always try to be available for guests 24 hours a day. If there is any urgent farm work that cannot be delayed, we are always happy to take guests with us ... to spectate or to help. There are hundreds of kilometers of hiking trails to explore and the opportunity to go on a farm tour, a sundowner, do some target shooting, or horse riding. Just please send us a message as soon as possible after booking with us to let us know if you would like to arrange an activity with us. The more notice we have, the better prepared we can be for your visit.
Anna loves horse riding, working with the animals, and baking. Darren enjoys managing our next project on the farm, meditation, sports, and learning new skills such as woodworking, bee keeping and growing mushrooms. Together we enjoy cooking, going out onto the farm with the dogs, exercising, watching TV, and playing computer games.
Our closest neighbour is over 10km away. Our front gate is 16km from the main road connecting Helmeringhausen and Maltahohe. We often go days at a time without noticing a car driving past our front gate. There is no worry of any noise or light pollution. Wider afield, our farm is situated neatly between Fish River Canyon, Luderitz, and Sossusvlei with lots of fantastic opportunities in between. There are so many amazing guest farms and experiences on offer. You don't have to drive far to find the next highlight worth stopping for ... which most travellers drive straight past as they rush to get to the major attractions. Please, with or without a booking, please feel free to get in touch and ask any questions that you might have about exploring our heavenly little corner of the world. It is always a pleasure communicating with travellers and hearing all about everyone's exciting adventures. We also have plenty of family friends who have work in the tourism industry who we will be able to connect you with depending exactly what you want to get out of your time here in Namibia.
