General Information: Ghaub, nestled in the Otavi Mountains, was built as a mission station in 1895. In 1999 Ghaub was transformed into a guest farm which combines modern comforts with a historical ambience. Take a walk to the old cemetery or the rock engravings, participate in a farm drive with opportunity for game viewing, or discover the cave on a guided tour.

Location: Ghaub is located in the Otavi mountains, 410 km north of Windhoek, (25 km from B1 between Otavi and Tsumeb). Ghaub can also be reached via a very scenic route, the D2863 turning off from the B8 between Otavi and Grootfontein at Kombat.

Accommodation: The original farmhouse as well as the homestead were renovated and 2 further buildings were erected in the same style, the historic character has thus been retained. All 10 twin rooms were tastefully refurbished with wonderful wooden and cane furniture and decorated with pictures from the early days. They all have en-suite bathrooms and offer a magnificent view of the surroundings from the verandah. A short walk away is the swimming pool, and the hide.
