The guesthouses
On the premises of the Hand in Hand Community, attractive overnight accommodation has been set up. Staying in one of these houses is a unique opportunity to experience the warm family atmosphere of the Community. You can also relax here, read a book or play with the children in the pool or at the playground.
A nice view over some of our wonderfully
situated guesthouses
The Hand in Hand Community (locally called the 'PCC", good to know if you ask directions in town!) is situated not far from the town centre of Nkoranza, behind the Hospital and has been constructed as a small village. The guesthouses are situated around the centrally located playground. Most guesthouses are simple, some are a bit more luxury. Each hut has a bed (single, double or king size), a mosquito net, some furniture, a fan and a bathroom plus toilet attached. Towels, sheets, a candle, matches, soap and toilet paper are included.

On the site, there is also a simple restaurant. You can tell the hostess Charity or her right-hand Josephine if you desire to order meals. They also run a small shop where you can buy some articles like soap or wine and especially also beaded jewellery plus woven pieces of cloth, made in the sheltered workshop. All income goes to the Hand in Hand Community. Charity and Josephine can assist you also in arranging transport to tourist attractions in the surrounding area, including the monkey sanctuary Boabeng-Fiema and the waterfalls of Kintampo.

If you would like to come and stay, we recommend you inquire about the availability. Especially during weekends and during the months of July, August and December we are often heavily booked. If you want to make a reservation well in advance, then you can send an email to: handinhandcommunity@gmail.com
For a visit on a short notice you best call straight to Miss Charity or, (if not present), to Mr. Baffo:

But even in the case of a visit without reserving in advance, we can accommodate you most of the time nicely. In case there would be too many visitors at one time, we have even made special arrangements with a hotel in town + a taxi connection to PCC, for a temporary solution.
