Photo of Gibb's Farm

“A charming rustic chic farm, with cosy cottages, set on the wooded slopes of the stunning Ngorongoro Crater. Accommodation is spacious and light with polished wooden floors, beamed ceilings and exposed stone. But it's the views from the terraces that are the real draw. A tranquil spot.”
