Ngorongoro Farm House
Ngorongoro Farm house is a country lodge style property located close to the entrance to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area near the village of Karatu in the Ngorongoro Highlands.
Ngorongoro Farm House is a good value but comfortable property that is suitable for travellers looking for an affordable base from which to visit Lake Manyara National Park and more importantly, the Ngorongoro Crater. Everything about the lodge is acceptable, but it is a large lodge and you should not expect luxury services. The lodge does have a friendly vibe, a lovely setting with good views and the central areas and rooms are all spacious, if a little simple in style. Your main reasons for choosing this lodge are its location and the value for money it offers.
