Farm of Dreams Lodge

Farm of Dreams Lodge is in Karatu, the farming town on the highland slopes just below the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, which makes it a convenient base for a day in the Ngorongoro Crater and for visits to Lake Manyara. The lodge is set in a garden of flowers and vegetables, and from the grounds there are wide views over the surrounding hills, with the wider landscape taking in the direction of the crater highlands, Lake Eyasi, Lake Manyara and Tarangire. Rooms are en-suite and open onto a terrace with table and chairs overlooking the gardens. Several rooms interconnect, which is helpful for families and small groups travelling together. Meals are usually on a full board basis, and there is a lounge and free wireless internet in the public areas. The lodge can arrange a Lake Manyara outing, sundowners on the crater rim and a bush breakfast in the wild. It suits families, groups and travellers looking for a comfortable, good value base between the northern parks.
