Twyfelfontein Country Lodge - Twyfelfontein
Welcome to Twyfelfontein Country Lodge. A true landmark situated in the heart of one of the world’s most magnificent wilderness regions. Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Twyfelfontein in Damaraland is home to one of the largest collections of rock-art engravings found in Southern Africa. Not only did the Khoi-San and tribes of ancient years leave us with a true cultural heritage, but the whole area is characterised by natural wonders such as Doros Crater, Burnt Mountain, Organ Pipes, Petrified Forest and desert-adapted animals – of which the desert-adapted elephant is probably the most well-known species.
Nestled along the mountainside, the lodge beautifully blends in with its surrounding environment. Using natural stone, carefully selected paint colours and thatched roofs, its design compliments the sandstone rock formations with minimum visual impact on this picturesque landscape. Magnificent views from the deck over the Huab Valley, desert plains and distant mountains provide for hours of relaxed comfort, peace and tranquillity.
Twyfelfontein is much more than just accommodation; it is a destination in itself.
The lodge offers 56 beautifully appointed rooms of various layout and sleeping arrangements. Whether travelling alone, as a group, or extended family, our Twin, Double, Triple and Interleading Rooms can accommodate your required sleeping needs.
Decorated with natural materials according to the local African theme and rounded off with luxury linen, guests are spoiled with comfort and serenity amidst an arid desert backdrop – a comfortable experience with a lifetime of memories.
Construction of the lodge is such that half the rooms have a view over the plains and the other half a view of the red sandstone mountains. Specific views are very much a matter of personal preference\taste. Large spotlights light up the mountains at night providing for a majestic atmosphere. Rooms on the mountain side do have a bit more shelter from environmental elements, as well as a bit more privacy from the main walk-ways between the rooms and the main building.
