Boutique guest house and spa with old world charm

A fabulous place to spend a few days recovering and being pampered at the spa after visting the Kgalagadi national park. Rooms are huge, with confortable king sized beds. The old fashioned/ antique furniture makes you feel at home and there are paintings everywhere. Beautiful garden with fountains and a small pool area is just what you need after the desert. And the food: home slow cooked with love.

I can confirm beyond any hesitation this was the best overnight stay we have been to (been traveling for years!) - service / room / facility and spa was exceptional, friendly and the food absolutely incredible - served outside our room under candle light. No wonder they get all the awards and must be the best value for money one could ever get!.
