Desert Homestead and Horse Trails



Desert Homestead, Namib Desert Region, Namibia The Desert Homestead lies at the junction of the C19 and D854 roads, 35km southeast of Sesriem. The wide grassy valley is sheltered by the Nubib, Tsaris and Naukluft mountains with a view reaching the distant dunes of the Namib Desert in the west.

The Desert Homestead will ensure you an unrivalled respite from the desert extremes. Tranquil surroundings, Alfresco dining, delectably fresh farm cuisine, refreshing dips in the pool, stunning sunsets and sunrises are the basic pleasures at Desert Homestead.

The main lodge is an old farmhouse turned into a cosy meeting place. The living areas of the lodge are all open plan, encouraging guests to move around freely. The most prominent feature is the well sheltered verandah where you can have a leisurely breakfast, lunch and dinner, candle-lit even on windy evenings. Inside, you will find a cosy lounge with ethnic African decoration and comfortable leather sofas. Satellite TV is available in an separate room. The bar is attended by a friendly, well educated and communicative barkeeper.

The swimming pool in front of the main building is good for a refreshing dip and well utilised throughout the year.

Desert Homestead offers sixteen rustic chalets, all built from local rock and blending in with the environment. Inside they provide luxury, with large single or double beds and en-suite bathroom with shower and toilet. The mosquito nets render a cosy alcove feeling. The lights and fans in the guest accommodation is powered by a bank of batteries, which are charged by wind and solar power during daytime. All our guest amenities (soaps, shampoo, body lotion etc.) are environmetally friendly.

Twelve of our chalets have two single beds each. Four chalets are family units with four beds.

The Desert Homestead has excellent riding horses, all docile and easy to handle. You can choose between several outrides options. Most popular are our sunrise and sunset rides.

We also offer a sundowner drive in the evenings which includes a leisurely nature drive, slowly winding up a mountain, and culminating in gin and tonics and snacks, before venturing home again.
