In the bathroom they had an open shower. All of the green area was the shower area. The fireplace was also open on this side. Through the glass door was also an outdoor shower.

In this photo you can see the outdoor shower area was bordered by plants. We also had a big tub.

We felt very spoiled in this lodge. They even had 24-hour power!

Awesome old-fashioned toilet. I had to take a picture. They also had an old-fashioned pitcher and bowl in this room to wash your hands. They kept the pitcher full of water.

Awesome view from our porch!

Great seats out there too!

We went walking around before dinner. We had a little bit of time.

Beautiful stuff like this was also practical. These were herbs for the kitchen.

Gibbs Farm is a working coffee farm. In the late 1920s the coffee farm was established by a German farmer, subsidized by the German Government. During the Second World War, the British Custodian of Enemy Property took over the Farm.

In 1960, the Serengeti National Park was partitioned and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area was established along the northern boundary of Gibb's Farm. As more and more visitors became attracted to the Conservation Area and surrounding National Parks, James and Margaret built guest cottages in 1972, making Gibb’s Farm one of the first guesthouses in Northern Tanzania. James Gibb died in 1977, but Margaret Gibb continued to run Gibb’s Farm until 2003 when Margaret and her late husband Per Kullander passed on the Gibb’s Farm tradition to new investors.

There was an art gallery, gift shop, bar and nice restaurant in the lobby.
