"BullsPort Lodge and Farm review"

2 nights Arrived 29 Sep 2024
"We enjoyed this stop over very much as we could interact and get to know the owner (family owned business) directly. We learnt something about the realities of running a business in this harsh climate.

We tried quite a few of their local walks. The highlight was the trip (by vehicle) that we took into the Naukluft park with walk down the riverbed. Very knowledgeable guide.

The accommodation was very good. They made use of a lot of local food (where possible) and made their own cottage chese and breads.

Considering the price of this stop over, you got more than your money's worth

We did not feel like hotel guests but instead felt at home. What a pleasure!" See all these reviews: 14n in Namibia

"An excellent, peaceful stop if travelling from Windhoek to the Sesriem area. It afforded time to relax and acclimatise to the heat and dryness of Namibia.

There are many enjoyable self-guided walks, from flat to very challenging. Also horse riding, but we didn’t try this.

Johanna, the owner, and her staff are very welcoming and the place has a friendly, easygoing feel.

The rooms are large and well-appointed, with individual verandahs.

The evening meal was 4 course and plentiful, as was breakfast." See all these reviews: 22n in Namibia

"We really liked BullsPort - lovely owners happy to share their life experiences. The trails were great, we appreciated the opportunity to walk on our own and see wildlife.

Great drive up to the escarpment with David who was very knowledgeable and an excellent safe driver. We enjoyed the Quiver Tree Trail.

Excellent room, welcoming and friendly staff, and great food" See all these reviews: 12n in Namibia

2 nights Arrived 31 May 2024
"The Naukluft Mountains are beautiful - the location is great. The owner/host couple were friendly and lovely. My adult kids went on an 8-mile hike in the mts and heard and then saw zebras as they hiked. That hike was too much for me and a lovely staff member accompanied me on a 3 1/2 hour walk. Next day, the husband of the couple took us on a drive in his 4x4 which was fabulous. We also saw the Quiver Trees - unique to Namibia. Fab!" See all these reviews: 15n in Namibia; 1n in South Africa

"BullsPort Lodge and Farm review"

1 night Arrived 19 May 2024
"The drive here was quite challenging for us on the C24 and D1206 but we had a lovely welcome (with tea and homemade cake) at Bullsport and our ‘luxury room’ was enormous and well appointed.

We did the Kudu Trail that afternoon then had a quick dip in their attractive but freezing cold pool.

Dinner was on the terrace with another couple of guests - a very tasty 3 course set meal.

The next day, after a lovely breakfast with delicious homemade bread, the owner was happy to let us check out late so we could do a 2hour walk in the mountains. Loved the stunning scenery .

We didn’t have enough time to do the Quiver Tree walk or the horse riding but still thought it was an excellent 1-night stay." See all these reviews: 14n in Namibia
