Dinner includes fresh game meat with sides. Should you have specific meal requirements (vegetarian or vegan) or any allergies, please let us know well in advance of your stay so we can prepare accordingly. Our meals are thoughtfully pre-prepared and brought to the villa, where they will be expertly cooked and served to you in a restaurant-style setting. All you need to do is sit back, relax, and enjoy the comfort of the villa while we take care of everything.

Dogs are welcome! We kindly ask that they be kept off all furniture, including beds, sofas, and chairs. Furthermore, we request that guests refrain from using our blankets or cushions for their dogs. These items are intended solely for guest use, and we ask for your cooperation in preserving their quality and cleanliness. A cleaning fee of N$2,000 will apply if this is not adhered to.

Mount Katrien is a luxury villa designed to provide you with a fully equipped and comfortable stay, featuring firewood, 220V outlets both indoors and outdoors, prepared bedrooms, towels, gas, hot water, and a fully stocked kitchen.

Guests enjoy strong mobile connectivity and complimentary Wi-Fi.

Mount Katrien can be reserved exclusively by couples or friends, with no additional guests permitted to book separate rooms.

The villa is equipped with ice in the freezer and a high-quality BOSE sound system. Please note, however, that Mount Katrien does not have a television; guests wishing to watch movies are encouraged to bring a laptop.

A sedan can drive to the lodge, and upon arrival, we’ll transport you up to the villa in our lodge car. Meanwhile, your vehicle will be parked at the main lodge.

At Mount Katrien, you can unwind in our inviting splash pool or soak in the relaxing hot tub. For the adventurous, hiking around the scenic Mt. Katrien is a must, and cycling along the C26 main road as you enter the farm offers a unique way to explore the area. While driving on the farm is restricted, we provide thrilling game drives (at N$350 per person) where you can experience the beauty of the landscape and spot a wide variety of antelope. Game Drives are around 2 hours long and refreshments are provided. You can discuss the time you would like to go on your drive with the Farm Manager upon check-in.

If the hot tub is damaged due to a fire being lit and embers being left when the water level is too low or empty—resulting in melted plastic and breakage—a damage fee of N$5,000 will be charged. Clear instructions are provided at the villa for hot tub use.

• Do not start a fire before the wood-fired stove is fully submerged in water.
• Do not drain the tub with hot coals or a fire still burning in the wood-fired stove.
• Heating time is about an hour to an hour and 45 minutes (depending on the starting temperature of the water.)
