Rustic-luxe in a far-flung location Soon after we check in, we’re given a tour of our villa and the surrounds and decide to sit in the lounge, order two coffees and contemplate our good fortune. By the way, those biscuits are baked on site and are absolutely scrumptious. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59bcab63cd0f6896ae075967/1592886734678-CSCIWS4NT6Y93V00QEFD/P6090165.JPG Blog - Hotel Review: Villa Mushara, Namibia.

Rustic-luxe in a far-flung location Kneeling down for a bit of morning grazing. A family of warthog visit the grounds everyday. They are wild animals so you can’t get too close because they will run away. One day Mr fritz and I are enjoying lunch on the terrace after our morning safari, when we suddenly heard clip clop, clip clop on the slate floor. A warthog casually walks right past our table. I held my breath and grinned from ear to ear. Oh the delight! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59bcab63cd0f6896ae075967/1593319813522-J1NSZKANGK5RD85AV9DE/Bedroom.jpg Blog - Hotel Review: Villa Mushara, Namibia.

I just adore this detail that happens to have a very important function too. This is after all a working farm and when it rains you couldn't ask for better footwear than this. Much to my annoyance, we forgot about them one morning after it had been raining and on our way to breakfast we had to navigate through thick, bright orange mud. So wear your Wellies! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59bcab63cd0f6896ae075967/1583646433866-BQFUPU5SH483SE1KAJ93/second+cottage+side.jpg Blog - Hotel Review: Babylonstoren, South Africa (continued) Here is another corner of the beautiful Farmhouse.

Soothing sage walls, a four-poster bed, deep windowsills with shutters. We had a walk-in robe, an open fireplace, a long sofa and a striking chair and behind one of those cupboard doors is a fridge and larder bursting with delicious goodies. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59bcab63cd0f6896ae075967/1583646660497-D1VM5O7KOEDUZ9WYR25E/2nd+bathroom+.JPG Blog - Hotel Review: Babylonstoren, South Africa (continued) And here is the bathroom. Wow, wow, wow. Classy all the way. The soaring ceiling height definitely adds to to atmosphere but so do the gorgeous black and white marble tiles, the enormous shower, and of course the bath, with an exquisite little brass side table - again, a perfect mix of old and new. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59bcab63cd0f6896ae075967/1582255234900-QJOKLQ7AC5YJ83L64GD1/bedroom+1.jpeg Blog - Hotel Review: Babylonstoren, South Africa (continued) This was our room on the first night.

I can actually gasp and usually feel i have to say something when I notice beauty like this. I was looking into the Goulburn river when I saw the branch of a eucalyptus reflecting back at me, “Oh wow! Quick come and look at this,” I yelled to Mr Fritz.

You need to time it with a low tide, your composition options are limited and often your visibility is obstructed by tourists. The ground is sharp and slippery too and this was the first day I was attempting my first long exposure shot - for this, some clouds are handy too. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59bcab63cd0f6896ae075967/1538797430246-3M0T8GAIO5UMK7F05OZ8/sorrento+bollards.jpg Blog - The allure of Instagram Ah, the magic you can create with a camera!
