Hosting an accommodation establishment comes naturally for me as it combines all my personal interests. With hospitality industry experience and as a qualified interior decorator, book and art lover the decor of my rooms is my hobby, always trying to improve my guests experience. Making my guests feel welcome, comfortable and appreciated with Kalahari hospitality is my priority and my extra mile. I once read: "Do what you can, with what you have, where you are". Bowden B&B is living out my dream and passion for beautiful things... and that includes people's beautiful hearts. Every day is a wonderful new day... I say.
