Overview

Just outside central Accra, our area is the traditional homeland of the Ga people, the custodians of the land in the capital city of Accra. If you come at festival times you can take part in exuberant dancing and celebrating with the local people, and enjoy the regalia of durbars honoring the local chiefs. There are also sacred shrines to the Ga people very near by.

We are also close to the historic town of Nsawam, famous for being the centre of coco production in colonial Ghana; it was once visited by the Prince of Wales, and has many historic buildings (in need of renovation). There is also the bustling Nsawam market, selling everything and more!

We are close to Aburi: home to Aburi Gardens, a beautiful botanical paradise created during the colonial era, with much involvement of the Caribbean missionaries who came (back) to Ghana in the mid 1800's to bring Christianity. In fact, the Aburi region has many churches and even wells built by this missionary community. Aburi also has the popular road-side wood carvers market, where you can find many bargains; and Rita Marley, widow of legend Bob Marley, and one of the I-Threes, lives here, with a recording studio.

We are also close to Achimota, which is along the motorway going into central Accra. In Achimota there is perhaps the largest completed bus station in Ghana, with transport going to all over the country. You can also play golf, visit the Forest Reserve and zoo, and do lots of local shopping in Achimota.
