Twyfelfontein Country Lodge

The large Twyfelfontein Country Lodge enjoys a mountainous backdrop, and offers a value for money stopover for those interested in viewing the rock engravings close by.

The central thatched building houses a reception, restaurant, dining room, bar, curio shop and lounge – offering a choice of areas for guests to relax and unwind in. A buffet breakfast and dinner are served in the elevated dining area, with some amazing views of the immediate scenery. It is not uncommon for some after-dinner entertainment, provided by the staff, still in uniform, who perform local songs. The swimming pool offers a welcome relief from the hot Namibian sun, and the shaded, rocky areas are ideal for a spot of relaxation.

The deliberate use of thatch for the rooms, plus natural stone and paint colours that blend in with the surrounding rock formations, minimise the visual impact on the setting. Accommodation is all painted outside in a similar reddish-brown colour as the surrounding boulders. The walls of the interiors are painted white. Rooms are in blocks of 8, with 4 front and 4 rear facing. There are 56 rooms with twin or double beds, en-suite bathrooms and a shower, wooden furniture, wall or ceiling fans, and a tea/coffee station. Some of the double rooms have inter-connecting doors and are ideal for families.
