Travel reviews by Mr & Mrs G from Salop

"Very welcoming,beds good ,coffeeand tea in the room,spaciousroom, need for oppressive security rather a shock, good breakfast, swimming pool"

"We were upgraded to a better room
We liked the situation and the walks from the door
We enjoyed the meals sitting around a big table
Very comfy room with tea and coffe and hot water
The owners were very friendly and helpful
saw Hartmans Zebra on a walk locally"

"Found the lodge very pretentious,rushing out with hot towels when you arrive we thought over the top
. They seemed to make sure that George carried your bags and a tip was definitely seemed expected
.There was no written list of expeditions which we found difficult to take in as there were several and expensive. 900 dollars for the Dunes.We decided to take a walk instead and this ended in rather a farce as the manager grew anxious when we didnt return within anhour and sent out a search party. He was very overweight and running through the desert was not good for him im afraid
Food and room very good,individual balconies nice.
.I would have preferred to stay at Sesriem with hindsight although sunset over the dunes was beautiful"

"Warm welcome and good room opening onto a garden.
Helpful hosts with great breakfast and a good choice in music1
Pizza cafe as part of the premises ,which were very tasy and cooked to order.
Excellent restaurant at the end of the jetty,need to book
Interesting walks ,saw Flamingos.
Security again seemed to be a problem
Would definitely recommend even with the less expensive room."

"This was a good fun place to stay.Despite the fact thatwe were grounded for the day there because of a puncture there was plenty to do . We were able to find shady walks, there were 2 big pools set in the most beautiful gardens .
On one evening the workers at the lodge did a lovely concert ,they have their own choir.
The workshop at the lodge were ale to repair the puncture very reasonably.
The brick built chalets had hot water provided by individual woodburning stoves lit for us early in the morning.
Every morning a flask of boiling water was delivered to the chalet for early morning tea.
They had a meer cat pet on the premises which was cute.
had we been able to get there ,there was a famouswall painting The white lady Very close by and the splendours of the Brandburg Mountain."

"Amazing situation inthe mountains with the walkways to the cabins yet very close to the main road.
Very good for those who like walks with excellent guides and marked paths for those who want to walk on their own. All these included in the price.
Very kind and helpful staff,very friendly.
Quite a lot of wild life with the Dassies and baboons
Many colourful birds and people to identify them
Food really excellent ,the best in Namibia."

"We spent 2 weeks volunteering at the Cheetah fund Headquarters near Odjiwarongo.
This was most interesting and enjoyable, we learnt a lot and were able to give some help"
