This is in the oldest parts of Windhoek in what is one of the oldest houses in Windhoek but feels like being on a small farm in the middle of the city. There is a nice local bar called Onguhi Location around the corner, The Book Den (best bookshop in Windhoek) two blocks away and the Taste of India restaurant about 10 mins walk away. The Wernhill mall is about 15 minutes on foot, has a big supermarket etc. Easy access to taxis on all the main routes serving Windhoek. Secure parking on premises. Airport pick-ups can be arranged. I work from home, so keeping noise levels at acceptable levels will be appreciated. If you want to use the Dover woodstove in winter, please ask for help in getting it started up.
