Damara Mopane Lodge: Our full report

Damara Mopane Lodge is perfectly situated for visiting Twyfelfontein, the Petrified Forest and the Vingerklip rock pillar. We last visited here in December 2015.

Damara Mopane Lodge has got 60 chalets, which are all connected to each other and with the main area by a labyrinth of paths.
Each chalet has a covered veranda where you can sit and admire the flower, vegetable and herb garden. Inside the bungalows are equipped with twin beds and an en-suite bathroom.

Damara Mopane Lodge's main area consists of a large lawn with a huge swimming pool in the middle and a few deck chairs to recline in with a good book. The main building contains a lounge area, a large curio shop, a bar and three separate dining areas. There is a sun downer deck from where you can enjoy a great view over the lodge and its surroundings.
