Namastat Lodge and Caravan Park
Namastat Lodge and Caravan Park offers comfortable accommodation situated just outside of Springbok....
Namastat Lodge and Caravan Park offers comfortable accommodation situated just outside of Springbok. It lies in a narrow valley surrounded by the Koperberg Mountains, in the heart of the Namaqualand. It is the last major town before Namibia and it is known as the flower capital.
We offer four Bungalows with double or single beds and 22 Campsites, all sharing the ablution facilities. All the campsites have electricity points and water taps. There is a communal kitchen and a braai area for great entertainment.
The attractive town of Springbok is formed around a central hill, known by locals as Klipkoppie/Stone Hill, that was used by the Boers during the Second Boer War as a fort for its incredible vantage point. Views from here across the valley are beautiful, as are the examples of flowers during spring every year that not only blossom on the little hill but in the surrounding scrubland as well. The hill is also the site of a modest stone church built in 1921, and remains of the walls of the original fort.
"Nothing in particular"
"what a view. comfortable and clean. just was not expecting the lack of cutlery and braai facilities"
"I loved all the indigenous plants and flowers around the camping and the very clean ablutions block."
"from camp site to park run at springbok the view with sunrise will remain good memory thank you"
"My husband & I spent a night camping at this caravan park, enroute to Cape Town.We were welcomed by a sweet, friendly little ginger cat. He gave me a tour of the campsite! It is beautifully laid out, & ablution block immaculately clean & neat, with really nice showers."
"We enjoyed our stay. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Restaurant food very good and the atmosphere was great. Will be our stop and sleep over next time we visit Namibia."
"Helaas konden we de lodge niet vinden en zijn toen maar doorgereden naar een volgende plaats."
"<p class="MsoNormal">We did not stay at the Namastat due to the bad conditions ofthe bungalos. Firstly the managerestreated us like dirt when we complaint about the bungalos. The bedding was in abad Condition, few teaspoons in a rusted jam tin, holes in the wall as big as adinner plate, Dirty sofa outside the bungalow. It was embarrassing because we hadguest from overseas. We had to pay extra money to let the guest stay atKokerboom motel which was neat and had good service. I also want to say thatthe manager at Namastat Jonathan was very helpful and understanding. We spoketo him after his wife treated us so badly.<o:p></o:p></p>"

"<p>The directions were good..it was easy to find. Our welcome was warm and friendly. The other"residents" were helpful and friendly. The only real complaint is that there was no longer blankets on the beds..we had one very thin duvet, and froze.</p><p>also there was no hot water in the kitchen for washing dishes.</p>"
"The place is very clean, charming and designed with loving attention to detail. The friendly and warm welcome of the owners made us feel at home immediately, we had a wonderful stay here, thank you very much!"
"We had a very enjoyable 5 night stay at the caravan park. Am pleased that we stayed at Namastat Lodge and would recommend to others travelling to Springbok."
"Ons kon ongelukkig nie oorbly nie aangesien Jonathan n dubbele bespreking gemaak het en my nie laat weet het nie"
"The accommodation was clean and comfortable, though let down by the dirty cooking pans, which is a pity as the owners are clearly trying to upgrade. So, unless you wish to braai, best to eat in town and just use the wooden cabin as accommodation, which costing me only R100 was excellent value for my overnighter."
"We slept over here recently and regret it dearly. Maybe fine if you camp there, but the little rectangular cabin was a shocker! They are poorly built and it happened to be a cold night when we arrived. Wind howling into the wendy-house thing we stayed in, the duvet was about 3mm thin and had a big yukky stain on it. We asked for a blanket and got something from the caretakers house, it was smelly, dirty and came out folding the blanket as if just pulled of their own couch or bed. Our room had holes in the paper thin chipboard walls, our cups were dirty, the unit was dirty, the lonesome couch was damaged and gross, there was a lizard or bird dropping on the floor, the mattress seemed decades old and the springs poked us all night long. We woke up tired, feeling dirty and cold. The worst possible start to our trip. Only got better from there luckily!"
"Very nice site, well taken care of and beautiful all round.Friendly staff and overall good experience!Thank you very much!"
"I wish to thank Jonathan and the rest of the team at NamastatLodge for making our stay unforgettable. We had the best time in Springbok from getting us @ the garage on our arrival to the time when taking us back to the pick-up point for us to go back home. Thank you for you kindness, generosity, and warm reception on the cold weekend of 31 May 2013. This place is nice situated from town if you want privacy, just a place to get away and spend some time with friends or family. We enjoyed our stay very much and would love to go again some time."
