All Comments for Bastion Farmyard

Pragtige, skoon kamers. Was 'n plersier om daar te oornag. Puik geriewe.

Kan dit enige tyd aanbeveel.

Baie mooi plek Ons het gekamp maar na gesukkel met donkie vir warm water,ons eie hout op gebrand,kom ons agter warm water loop uit by klep wat lek.Die drie ander kampeerders het dieselfde probleem gehad .Ons het ingeboek en dis laaste wat ons gasvrou gesien het.Sal nie plek aanbeveel voor warmwater probleem uit gesorteer is nie

friendly and hospitable hosts. clean, comfortable and well equipped guest farm.

Best stop-over between Cape Town and Northern Namibia. Complete with extensive braai facilities and fully fitted kitchen with vintage crockery. Refreshing aircon.

Sjoe  maar  Mariental  is  WARM. Gelukkig  werk  Bastion  se  lugreeling  puik. Wonderike  plek. Ons  kom  weer  EENDAG. Hoop  dit  sal  gou  wees.

Goeie waarde vir geld, veral met die goed-toegeruste kombuis.

Clean and spacious with a nice bathroom.

Very convenient, friendly host, comfortable room and well appointed kitchen. Good value and would highly recommend.

Five Star facilities for campers. Never before have we seen hand soap, hand cream and toilet spray (in an open air toilet) and a lock-up facility for all your extras. Truly an amazing place.

Beste verblyf in Mariental! Dankie vir jul gasvryheid Salome.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Bastion Farmyard. The facilities were clean and comfortable and the dining room with its quaint relics of the past brought back many memories. We'd definitely visit again!

The campsites and breakfast were wonderful and i would definetely recommend to stay there!

Bastion Farmyard has everything the weary traveler needs: friendly hosts, a cozy kitchen, a warm bath and a comfortable bed.  This stop-over made the whole day's journey worthwhile.

WOW what a wonderful experience when we arrived at Bastion Farmyard.
We arrived after the normal check-in time, but she (the owner) was so friendly and met us at our room.
She showed us around and was willing to open the little shop they have on the property for in case we needed anything.
Bastion Farmyard is really a little gem in the desert. It is beautiful and well maintained.
We will definitely recommend Bastion to anyone that visits Marienthal.
Thank you Bastion Farmyard for a very nice experience and wonderful soft and cozy beds.

Ons was 4 volwassenes met elk ons eie en-suite kamer.  Nog nooit het ons so 'n netjiese plek, vol interessanthede om elke hoek en draai gesien nie.

Very comfortable, well equipped kitchen. Good value for money, highly recommended.

We arrived on Sun 29 Mar and were shown to the very nicely set up campsite. Each extremely neat site had its own kitchen/ablution block with lovely decorations around the mirrors and toilet holders, and a large shaded patio. Lots of (decorative) hooks for clothing - not often thought of by hosts. If you have a two-person tent there is not a lot of ground on which to pitch it within the fenced enclosure. But otherwise a vey well appointed site. Civilised camping - what a pleasure. We were just surprised that the farm shop was closed on a Sun, but the owner did say to call if we needed anything in it, and they would send someone to open up. If there were more guests at the time we were there, it would be a lovely place to gather for a chat. Overall, we would definitely recommend camping here.

Ourselves and our friends from Germany had a lovely stay for one night. The rooms were as  requested at booking stage including a braai for the tired travelers. Thank you for your hospitality and interesting surrounding details. Realy a gem!

Pragtig skoon en netjies en baie privaat. Sal dit aanbeveel om te oornag.

What a pleasant surprise. A great overnight stay with a little tourist shop full of surprises. The breakfast was really nice and we could see that the camping sites are also of a very high standard. What a lovely host. Thanks, we will come again.

For us the jewel of Southern Namibia. What a nice place to stay. Farm style hospitality at it's best. From the moment you enter the gate to the premises you feel at ease. Well furnished rooms with air - condition, fantastic breakfast area and a curious shop where my wife spend a few bucks. Salome and her staff ensured that our stay was one to remember. Innes & Charlotta van Eeden.

A very neat overnight stop with friendly service. Well done. Strongly recommended.

Very clean The rooms and breakfast room have been decorated with good taste. The breakfast room is like a mini museum which creates a lovely ambience. The owners very friendly and helpful.

Wonderful place, well situated and the atmosphere excellent. My wife is in love with the place, we will use it again.

A very nice place to stay with extremely helpful staff.

Pragtige plek met vriendelike bestuur. En ontbyt was uit die boeke, word sterk aanbeveel.

Clean and comfortable accommodation. All you can ask for after a dusty, hot trip through Namibia. Super friendly hostess, very well-equipped kitchen which really was like home-away-from-home and a good breakfast the next morning before tackling the heat again! The farmyard is full of quirky treasures - we loved it.

This place was gorgeous. Felt so comfortable and slept so well. The best was the little attached coffee shop with the yummy coffee and baked goods!

It was a real tonic after the long drive from Swakopmund. Green grass and birds in the trees gave us strength for the long drive next day. Hostess was helpful and friendly. Our room was comfortable and had everything we needed. The communal kitchen was so well set up that we wished were staying longer just to make use of it.

Everything that we found and experieced at Bastion was on a good standard. From the friendly reception, well decorated and neat rooms and bathrooms, dinner and breakfast was a pleasurable experience. The breakfast was probably the highlight of our stay, although there was absolutely nothing lacking with the accommodation, etc. Bastion has a great atmosphere, with well though interesting decorations inside and outside.

This was our second stay at bastion in 3 years and the standard has not faltered at all. Spotlessly clean. Very well equipped. Will go back every time we are en route to North Namibia.

We had an excellent time at Bastion. The directions to get there was easy to follow. Beautiful and obviously well managed farm with lovely guest facilities. Free Wi-Fi very welcome bonus. 10/10 for Bastion!

Unfortunately when we arrived there was no one to meet us and as we did not have a Namibian cell phone we were unable to contact the manager who apparently lived about 25 kms away. The place is very neat and has many interesting decor items. The manager, when we met her, was very pleasant and helpful.

An overnight stay on the way from Waterberg to Mata-Mata after a long trip was just what we needed. Warm, friendly reception, excellent facilities and freedom from uneccesary interference made the short stay a memorable experience. Thanks to Anya, Simone and Deon for their hospitality - a strong recommendation to all travelling in this area. Baie dankie.

We were really well looked after by Salome who welcomed us (even though we arrived late). The facilities were very pleasant and we would happily stay there again if in the area.

One night was not enough. Definately will stay longer next time. Everything was immaculate and have so much character. Loved it.

We enjoyed our stay in Bastion very much. Very good service for a low price. Very complete equipment, complete kitchen etc. Nice breakfast. Very quiet place.

Bastion Farmyard B&B is just the place you want to lay your head of a long drive in the heat of Namibia. The management and staff were absolutely delightful, helpful and welcoming. With air-conditioning, wifi, hot showers (or bath), comfortable bed, well-equipped rooms, ice-cold refreshments and a wonderful breakfast, Bastion is hard to beat. Would absolutely recommend it.

We had a brief and comfortable stay at Bastian's: lovely comfortable rooms, wi-fi, delicious full breakfast and lovely garden. Small coffee shop with homemade biscuits and jam for sale - which we took advantage of! Recommended to anyone travelling up to or from Windhoek.

Comfortable and beautiful rooms, lovely place and very good food. Excellent cooking facilities.

A gem just outside Mariental: excellent facilities and well equiped kitchen and braai area. We preferred to self-cater and found everything we needed in the kitchen. Thank you for the hospitality.

Bastion Farmyard was van die beste! Alles was baie keurig en stylvol. Dit was n groot bederf om na n hele paar dae in die "bos" in absolute weelde te kon oornag. Die werf met outydse geroeste items, die werf glad gehark, die slaapkamers prentjiemooi versier, die heerlike ontbyt en die winkel vol oulike goedjies was beslis n besoek werd. Ons doen weer aan as ons in die omgewing kom!

What a great break we had at Bastion, from arriving to cheking out!

Lovely accommodation. Good attention to detail and very useful braai pack options.

Nice clean rooms and bathroom! The communial kitchen had everything you need. We enjoyed a good breakfast and the staff was friendly. Overall a nice, quiet overnight experience!

Friendly and warm welcome. Excellently equipped! We all enjoyed our stay at Bastion. Rooms are nice and do have a personal note. We've got any assistance we needed.

Excellent setting with very well equipped room and amenities. Kitchen well equiped. Hosts Salome and Deon and assistant Anja went out of their way to let us feel comfortable and enjoy our stay. This is one of the best B&B's visited during our recent visit to Namibia. We truly wish we could stay another night - sitting on the stoep having a sundowner with dusk setting in was a wonderful experience. We highly recommend Bastion near Mariental to anyone en route to Windhoek or visiting Namibia.

Good value for money. Little extras included. Manager very helpful. A great find.

We were unfortunate to be there at the same time as a group of fishermen who were partying till midnight.....hence a very bad night. The host very welcoming and we would stay there again without the noisy guests.

We received very good service, and a friendly smile. The breakfast takeaways were fantastic.

Excellent accommodation. I really enjoyed my stay. Keep up this standard!

Really enjoyed it. All décor are well thought out. The circle motive of the grass and surroundings is very interesting. We really enjoyed it. Thank you.

Wonderful and friendly reception. The rooms are spacious, neat and clean. The showers are a bit slippery though. The kitchen is great! Love the homely feeling. The little gift shop is a fabulous treat. We will visit again.

We loved the whole place. It is so well set out with quirky wall decorations on the outside, great old farm implements, lovely plants and trees in attractive gravel settings - a great deal of work has gone into making the farmyard attractive. Inside the room was comfortable and the comunal kitchen well equipped.

We enjoyed our stay at this B&B - well equipped and decorated rooms with a well equipped kitchen for communal use. We would certainly recommend it.

Loved it. Clean and tidy and very pretty décor.

Skoon; gasvry ontvang. Definitief aanbeveel. Clean; warmly received. Definitely recommended.

This was one of the best places I have ever stayed at! It was so much more than what was expected and we were pleasantly surprised to find absolutely everything we needed right there! The rooms were lovely, clean and comfortable, the surrounding area clean and neat with lots of quirky, interesting things to find all over the yard. As it was very cold we were pleased to find an indoor braai in the kitchen and we had an interesting evening chatting to the other guests as the kitchen is shared by all staying there. Our breakfast was excellent, served by Salome herself and her husband. I can recommend Bastion to anybody travelling in Namibia. It is luxury accommodation at a very affordable price!

Very clean and quiet place, nicely located. Wonderful luxury rooms and bathrooms. Nice breakfast and service. Very suitable for families. Thanks a lot!

A fab place to stay at in Mariental. Thoroughly recommended. Rooms are large and spotless. Shared kitchen is well stocked and Salome and Deon are lovely hosts.

The web pictures does not do you justice. The stay was great. Breakfast fantastic. Rooms beautiful. Overall fantastic!

Mooie rustige omgeving, hele nette kamer, ontbijt perfect en een hele vriendelijke benadering, voor herhaling vatbaar. Beautiful, peaceful environment. Nice room, perfect breakfast and friendly treatment. Definitely worth staying here again.

Too beautiful. Superb place to stay.

We had a lovely time. It is beautiful, very clean and peaceful. Garden is stunning.

Bastion Farmayard B & B is meticulously and tastefully decorated and very comfortable. The breakfast was excellent and served in a cosy little dining room. The kitchen and braai areas for the guests are well stocked and laid out. I would recommend this B and B to anyone.

Sweet but short.

We had a most enjoyable stay at Bastion. The hosts were very friendly and the accommodation excellent and very tastefully done. We can recommend this B and B to even the most discerned traveler.

Very, very beautiful.

What a wonderful stopover! The owners were so friendly and the renovated accommodation was breathtaking. If we are ever passing Mariental again we will definitely stay here. Thanks for your warm hospitality.

Het dit baie geniet, lekker gesels in hulle kombuisie wat hulle het vir gaste om kos te maak.

A beautiful little oasis! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and were made to feel very welcome. The rooms are beautifully decorated and everything has been thought of for a weary traveller. We utilized the indoor braai on a very cold night and had a lovely cosy evening next to the fire. Most enjoyable!

A must stay for anyone who needs a rejuvenating experience and a good night's rest in the Mariental district. Salome and Deon shares their passion for quality and comfort with such a generous heart. Well done, we're coming back!! Madri du Preez

The Bastion was quaint, charming and a delightful place to stay. Our hostess was also superb with that wonderful country hospitality that is lacking in the city. An absolute pleasure!
