Holiday Home - Wlotskazbaken



I own a house (50/50 with my friend Peter and his family), in Wlotskazbaken, a holiday coastal village halfway between Swakopmund and Henties Bay. The original wooden structure part of the house was once the police station in Walvis Bay, and was sold off, dismantled, and rebuilt as a holiday house in Wlotska sometime during the 50's. During our time, we have built on an additional wing and have done various improvements. We fondly refer to the place as the "Fishing Shack" and have had many wonderful times there. There is no electricity, we run off gas and battery power and water is tanked to us and stored in a special tank on a raised platform.
