A FARM AT HEART ​At Kalahari Bush Breaks, farm life and hospitality go hand in hand. We are a family business with deep roots in cattle farming, and we welcome travelers who want to experience authentic Namibia in an intimate, relaxed setting. Guests often tell us how much they value the personal atmosphere here, small enough to feel familiar, yet with enough space to enjoy peace and quiet. CATTLE, WILDLIFE & CONSERVATION Our farm is home to a variety of cattle breeds, with Beefmaster at the heart of our herd. Namibia is known worldwide for its naturally raised, free-range beef, and we’re proud to contribute to this tradition. Our property covers approximately 25,000 hectares and is home to more than 30 different species of wildlife. We take pride in managing our game responsibly and ensuring they thrive alongside our cattle. For us, farming, wildlife, and conservation go hand in hand all are essential to the balance of life on the Kalahari.​ MEALS MADE WITH CARE Food is an important part of the experience at Kalahari Bush Breaks. We put a lot of effort into preparing meals from the best quality produce we can source, and much of it reflects the farm itself. Our aim is simple: to serve wholesome, tasty meals that bring together fresh ingredients and a true sense of place.  OUR DOGS Life on a farm wouldn’t be complete without dogs. Ours aren’t pets in the usual sense, but companions that share in the daily rhythm of the farm. Guests will often see them around the lodge, quietly keeping an eye on things and adding to the warm, lived-in feel of the farm A FAMILY WELCOME We believe a guest farm should feel welcoming for everyone which is why we offer two spacious family rooms, each comfortably sleeping four guests. Children can roam, families can reconnect, and everyone can experience it together. We love nature and live with it every day, and we do our best to conserve the land that sustains us, so future generations can enjoy it too.

About

ABOUT US

The Kalahari Desert is a vast sand veld region which extends over central and western Botswana into eastern Namibia and the Northern Cape. Although generally described as a desert, the typical Kalahari landscape is surprisingly well vegetated.

​

The Barnard Family, regard themselves extremely privileged to be given the opportunity to work with the rhythms of nature and exploring their dreams with the natural beauty of Africa as their palette.

​

In spring its undulating sandy plains become a flowering wilderness; after midsummer rains they become covered in tall green grass and leafy trees, such as shepherd’s trees (Boscia Albitrunca), Camelthorn (Acacia Erioloba), yellow wood (Terminalia Sericea) and a vast variety of shrubs.
