Duwisib Guest Farm

PLAN MY TRIP

A romantic and historic castle serves as the backdrop for the comfortable and affordable Duwisib Guest Farm on the edge of the vast Namib Desert.

Accommodations at the hotel consist of affordable self-catering units and double rooms with dinner, bed, and breakfast. Each spacious room is located in the restored historical buildings with single, double, or triple rooms available to choose from. The rooms include an en suite bathroom and a private veranda for relaxing and enjoying the stunning views. The self-catering rooms also have a choice of single, double, triple, or four-bedded rooms and include BBQ facilities; a small kitchen with crockery, cutlery, gas cooker and bar fridge; and bedding and towels. The Springbok Bungalow comes with twin beds, an en suite bathroom, small kitchen, and BBQ facilities.

There is also a camp site maintained by the guest farm within close proximity of the castle. The individual campsites are shaded by camelthorn trees. The campsites include ablution facilities with an electric light, seating area, BBQ facilities, and running water.

The guest farm is located in on the edge of the vast and wonderous Namib Desert on the route to Sossusvlei, Luderitz, or Fish River Canyon. The nearby Duwisib Castle was built by the German army office,r Baron von Wolf for his American bride, Jayta in the early 1900s. The Baron dreamed of breeding horses but was unfortunately killed in World War I at the Battle of the Somme. His wife, Jayta moved back to America leaving the castle behind which is now a museum. The guest farm realized the Baron’s dream and is a working cattle, sheep, and horse breeding farm. The Namib Desert is famous for its massive sand dunes especially Sossuvlei area, these reddish-orange dunes are some of the largest in the world, with some exceeding 1,000 feet. Small populations of lizard, gecko, gerbil, mole, hyaena, and jackal have learned to subsist here. There is even a unique population of elephants who have adapted to the arid climate.

Visitors to the farm can explore the castle’s museum which is walking distance from the guest farm. The newly built swimming pool provides a cool respite during the hot Namibian summer days and is also a popular spot to enjoy a sundowner drink.
