The guest farm with its endless horizons, lies about 1234m high on a giant ridge, the natural geologic divide, between the central highland and the Namib desert. The farm house is built on a plateau that has an awe-inspiring view over the mopane landscape. This accounts for the wonderful climate of this area throughout the year and will inspire you to take walks through the surrounding mountains or the mopane forest, where you can observe indigenous game and birds.

All enthusiasm for nature and animals already showed large effect in the building phase. The lodge was mainly built from local materials as well as with local inhabitants of Damaraland. The management was aware of their ecological responsibility while building the camp and also in maintaining it.

This 9000 ha game ranch borders on the south-western section of the Etosha National Park. For more than 40 years, lions have moved from the Park onto these neighbouring farms, killing domestic livestock (cattle, donkeys, horses, sheep and goats) as well as various antelope species.

Vreugde Guestfarm
The meaning of the word "Vreugde" is joy or happiness and that is exactly what the owners strive to offer their guests. Vreugde Guest Farm is a small, friendly family business, offering accommodation that is comfortable, rustic and elegant. Situated in the heart of Namibia, just 30 minutes drive from the Etosha National Park's Anderson Gate, "Vreugde" is a perfect stop-over where you can sit back and relax, and recapture the beauty that you have experienced on your travels through our vast and beautiful country. Come and enjoy the peaceful tranquillity as you relax in our beautiful, lush garden, while your hosts Danie and Elsie Brand taking care of your every need.
Vreugde offers comfortable and rustic accommodation in 1 double room, 5 twin rooms and 1 family room, all en-suite with a shower. Since the owners treasure the intimate feel of a small guest farm they have no intention to expand further. Breakfast and Dinner are served in the main farm-house, but drinks can also be served either in the garden, under the grass-roofed "Lapa', around the fire, or at the swimming pool. Elsie’s delicious Namibian farm cuisine is well known and loved.
A laundry service is available on request, as are telephone and internet access. Credit card facilities are also available.
