Get away from it all this weekend. Skip Swakop and head straight for the Flamingo Cottages at the lagoon in Walvis. As nondescript as the city might be elsewhere, you can pretend to be in a charming seaside resort here. The whitewashed, thatched cottages open up to your own patio and the communal lawn, complete with palmtrees and all sorts of maritime features. When you look out onto the sea you can almost pretend to be somewhere in bucolic Holland. If it wasn't for the flamingoes and palmtrees of course. Light a fire in the huge fireplace or spend the evening outside and make a fish braai. Problem is, you may want to stay forever.
