Perched at an altitude of 1,940 meters on the north-western slopes of the Elgon, this guesthouse enjoys magnificent panoramic views and appreciable coolness. In addition to the simple but well-maintained rooms, there's a camping site and a bar-restaurant where you can recharge your batteries after physical exertion: in fact, Daan, the Dutch manager, is the founder of Run Kapchorwa, which promotes personal development through sport. It also offers cultural experiences: coffee culture and cooking classes.

If the steep, curling, slope to Kapchorwa didn't take your breath away, Home of Friends will for sure. The venue is beautifully located on a mountain ridge and guarantees a true moment of ease after a long hike through the stunning countryside (we highly recommend the rough but rewarding Benet trail in that matter). Huge thumbs up to Elisa for the warm welcome and endless smiles :)

Home of Friends was definitely one of our highlights in Uganda.

Hi Stipe and Basile. We are glad you enjoyed both the adventure and relaxation side of your stay:) Your Benet guide David was impressed with how easily you were managing your breath during the hike! We hope to welcome and your friends again in the future (for a Wagagai climb?).
Best,
Eliza, Daan & team

Though the road to the location isn’t the best the service and staff go over and above to make your stay comfortable. I loved the food and the rooms are cozy enough. Don’t miss the sunrise view!!

Tijdens onze rondreis door Uganda logeerden we ook 2 nachten bij Home of Friends, als uitgangspunt om Sipi Falls te ontdekken rond Mount Elgon. Bij het ontvangst door Daan en Eliza - in de prachtige tuin - voelden we ons direct zeer welkom en thuis. We verbleven in een ruime schone twinbedded kamer met een zeer ruime douche. Warm water bleek altijd beschikbaar. Toch wel erg heerlijk. 's Avonds was er entertainment: kampvuurverhalen verteld door de Sebei Cultural-groep. Vanuit Home of Friends worden vele excursies georganiseerd. Zo liepen wij de Kapchorwa-natuurwandeling naar de prachtige Kaptokwoi-waterval en naar de Sipi Fall III. De omgeving kent meerdere prachtige watervallen en grotten.
Onze reisgenoten kozen voor koken met de 'Mama's', wat ook erg goed bleek. Kortom met Daan en Eliza tref je een fantastische gastheer en -vrouw, die het verblijf in Kapchorwa tot een onvergetelijke tijd maken. En dan heb ik nog niets gezegd over de smaakvolle gerechten zij zelf serveren voor ontbijt, lunch en/of avondeten.

During our tour of Uganda we also stayed 2 nights at Home of Friends, as a starting point to explore Sipi Falls around Mount Elgon. Upon being welcomed by Daan and Eliza - in the beautiful garden - we immediately felt very welcome and at home. We stayed in a spacious clean twinbedded room with a very spacious shower. Hot water was always available. Still very lovely. In the evening there was entertainment: campfire stories told by the Sebei Cultural group. Many excursions are organized from Home of Friends. For example, we walked the Kapchorwa nature walk to the beautiful Kaptokwoi waterfall and to the Sipi Fall III. The area has several beautiful waterfalls and caves.
Our travel companions opted for cooking with the 'Mamas', which also turned out very well. In short, Daan and Eliza are fantastic hosts who make your stay in Kapchorwa an unforgettable time. And I haven't said anything about the tasteful dishes they serve for breakfast, lunch and / or dinner.
