Bastion Farmyard B & B

Experience the pleasure of staying on a peaceful and tranquil farm. Bastion Farmyard is a restored farmhouse situated among the farmlands of the Hardap Irrigation Scheme. It is the ideal base to visit the surrounding areas as it is only nine kilometres from Hardap Dam Resort and 14 km from Mariental in southern Namibia.

Our location on the B1, halfway between Mata-Mata and Sesriem, makes it an ideal stop over and base from which to explore the famed Namib Desert and the Kgalagadi Desert. It is a tranquil retreat after spending time in these world-renowned tourist destinations. Bastion Farmyard is perfectly suited for families or friends to enjoy the beautiful gardens and has lots of space for children. The farm offers secure, spacious and safe off-street parking. The covered verandas are ideal for outdoor entertaining and braaing is a great Namibian tradition. We provide both indoor and outdoor braai facilities.

There are a total of five very well equipped en-suite rooms to choose from. The skillful interior is done by the owners who have made every effort to carefully and uniquely decorate each room as well as the kitchen and dining room. The rooms can accommodate from one to five people each and 16 people in total.

Bastion Farmyard serves a delicious warm farm breakfast plated with home-grown herbs, but self-catering is also an option. Bastion Farm Kitchen has all the conveniences to make your stay pleasurable. It is very well equipped for self-catering with a stove, a fridge/freezer, a microwave oven, a washing machine, crockery, cutlery and braai equipment. The kitchen is available to all the guests, free of charge and can comfortably seat eight people. It even has a Dover stove to warm up cold winter evenings. Promoting a wholesome family lifestyle, you will find the only TV on the premises is in the Bastion Farm Kitchen, with a full DStv bouquet.

Bastion Farmyard now also hosts the Bastion Farm Stall & Coffee Shop. Here you can buy gifts, décor, coffee, cake, braai packs, wood and ice. It has fully licensed bar facilities. It is not only a shop, but an experience! Home cooked farm dinners are also available on request, but pre-bookings are essential.
