"When can we go back to Erongo?"
What an entrance! High rocks either side and tents hidden amongst the boulders each totally private with their own vista on this wonderful environment. The swimming pool in the rocks overlooked by the sitting area before one climbs further up to the dining room and bar were all beautifully done. We had a lovely meal in the evening, interrupted by porcupines and genets paying visits for scraps.
In the morning we were up very early to take a guided walk which we really enjoyed and ended with us seeing the rare dik dik drinking from a waterhole. Breakfast was again excellent, this time interrupted by rosy-cheeked love birds sitting in pairs on the tree just outside that were just asking to have their photos taken!! Why did we have to leave? We must stay longer next time. Excelllent hospitality from Brian and Adele." See all these reviews: 10n in Namibia
"It is a wilderness"
"Completely different lodge"
Amazing area within rock outcrops with fantastic views. Main building comfortable witha great outlook on bird and animal feeding area.
The walking, both guided and self guide is recommended and is the main activity although there is a nature drive. Game is not intended to be the highlight. Warm welcome from staff, guides excellent in knowledge and interest. Food very good" See all these reviews: 22n in Namibia
"Picturesque Erongo"
Brian regulary fed the birds in the morning and the porcupines at night which could then be watched whilst you ate your own meals in the restaurant. The area was good for walking and had some great sunsets which set the mountains aglow.
I would like to come back after the rains to see how the landscape changes. Loved it here." See all these reviews: 13n in Namibia
"A night under canvas"
The dining room is reached up natural stone steps, passed the small swimming pool,and gives wonderful views of the surrounding mountains. We had a delicous dinner of potato and leek soup, salad, oryx and panatone and at breakfast next morning watched the local (love)birds swooping on breadcrumbs.
As this was our last night we were content to relax and didn't go on any excursions except for a sundowner walk to the top of a mountain in the company of a Belgian honeymoon couple." See all these reviews: 10n in Namibia

"A lovely camp nestled into the rocks"
We joined in both the sunset and sunrise walks and the guides were very good with fascinating and beautiful scenery.
