Askham Post Office Guest House is ideally situated en route to the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, in the heart of the Kalahari. Quaint and comfortable, the guest house offers accommodation amidst the breathtaking beauty and heat of the Kalahari.
The establishment has three en-suite rooms and a family cottage that can sleep up to six guests. Well equipped kitchenettes are provided for your self-catering purposes, as well as a TV lounge area and private braai facilities. Wood, meat and other supplies are available. Dinners can be arranged on request.
Walking and birdwatching are favourite activities in the area, and not to be missed are the local meercats that live in the vicinity. The former Askam Post Office was lovingly restored to a haven where visitors are warmly welcomed and can enjoy a comfortable nights sleep.
"<div>Whilst the chalet was very comfortable and adequate we did feel that it is overpriced for what you get.</div><div></div><div>Our hostess and ownerwas very helpful and there is nothing to fault about the venue apart from the rate.</div>"
"We stopped at Askham after a stay in The Kgalagadi Park. Very convenient place. We were put into the Kalahari Camelthorn accommodation which was superb. The facilities for self-catering were good, however we opted for the evening meal supplied by The Diamond T Coffee Shop in the town, which was where we also had breakfast. Food was very good and we were made to feel very welcome. An excellent stopover either on the way to or from the Transfrontier Park."
"Such wonderful people making us feeling so comfortable. As if we have known each other for so long. Everything was treated personally. We love those Askham hostesses, Johanna and Cecilia. Success also with the coffee shop!"
