About Simba Farm Lodge

The Simba Farm Lodge is a working family farm on the rolling hills of West Kilimanjaro, with great views of the Kilimanjaro to the east and the Maasai steppe and Mount Meru to the west.

Simba Farm Lodge is located at an altitude of 1700 meters, on the border of the rainforest and the lower open plains where elephants, zebras and giraffes graze.
The farm is known for recordings from the Dutch version of ‘Farmer wants wife’.

The owners Yoka and Sjouke Bruinsma grow their own vegetables, and barley and wheat for local beer breweries.

The property

The rustic and friendly guesthouse from 1920 has six rooms and a living room with fireplace. Additionally, Simba Lodge Farm has two cottages in the beautiful spacious garden.

On the porch of Simba Lodge Farm – where tea is served – you enjoy this beautiful location, the hospitality and tasty drinks at sunset. All meals are prepared with fresh vegetables from the garden.
