BüllsPort Lodge & Farm

Everything about this third generation guesthouse at 1500m in Naukluft Massif is authentic, charming and guest-centered. It's very intimate, like you've been truly invited to Johanna and Ernst's home and grounds. A campfire is lit at night, greetings and guidance offered upon arrival, and a full under the stars meal is served each evening/ vegetarian meals, homemade cheeses, lovely baked goods, etc. are featured. ||Then ... there is Johanna ... who welcomes all guests at dinner - she offers a personal touch for experiencing the stables and riding. It was a very special ride for me solo with her. What a spirit she has.||Also ... the hiking is intense and challenging and trailheads are very close! ||Forewarning: It is Not a place you drive into and say "Wow", it is a place with people and nature and historic decor/artifacts that quietly grow on you! Peaceful, game and birds on the grounds, so so lovely ... 3 days felt insufficient.

This was by far the best place we stayed in all of Namibia! My only regret is not staying longer. The accommodation is clean, to a very high standard, a home away from home. It has everything you could possibly need. The meals we had at this lodge were just amazing - our evening meal was a 4 course affair of fresh and local produce. There are beautiful walks right on your doorstep as well as other activities such as horse riding and game drives. The star gazing is unreal! The hosts are incredible, no request is too much, and were so welcoming. We will be booking here again!

BuellsPort Resort & Farm is located in at Road M31, south of Solitaire. The resort offers 12 quality rooms and 4 camping sites at 3km from the lodge. There is a restaurant & shop, lounge & bar. Outfit and layout provide a pleasant atmosphere. Service is friendly and helpful. You can go for hiking one of the 14 trails & horse riding for beginners and advanced riders. We opted for a room and there were few guests. We had a charming twin room, with good bed & bedlinen, coffee & tea facility, coffee-table & 2 club-chairs, 2 desks, air-co & gas-stove, fridge, and a nice bathroom with 2 washbasins, spacious shower & separate toilet. All was super clean. BuellsPort Lodge is a good place, and a fine choice for 2 or 4 nights. Highly recommended.

We used the campsite and it was a rural experience. Each campsite has its own bathroom and toilet! Hot water is available! If you're looking for adventure - thats the perfect place!

Our stay at Buellsport Guest Farm was truly disappointing. Nestled in the popular and scenic Hartdam region, we had high hopes for our accommodation, but it fell far short of representing the hospitality and standards of Namibia. After a long six-hour drive, we pulled into what appeared to be the wrong place. The sight that greeted us was a collection of rundown yellow buildings that seemed neglected and forlorn.||The reception and dining area exuded a sense of despondency, with faded decor that left a bleak impression. Unfortunately, the staff's lackluster welcome did little to lift our spirits. With it being too late to find alternative lodging, we reluctantly decided to stay for one night of three booked.||The room was a slight improvement over the surroundings but still a dark, cold and uninviting space. The Buellsport motto of SAVE was clearly visible everywhere with little labels on the light switches as well as the empty gas bottle in the heater and one rasher of bacon with breakfast.|It felt as though our comfort was an afterthought.||Out of the four places we stayed during our ten-day holiday in Namibia, Buellsport was the most expensive yet totally disappointing. |Charm and appeal don’t need to come with a hefty price tag; all they require is a touch of imagination and effort—qualities that Buellsport sadly lacks. We left feeling let down and after one night were relieved to leave Buellsport behind.

Brilliant place to stay in a very relaxing and beautiful environment. Great trails for walking and interesting guided tour and walk to Quiver Tree Canyon. Excellent food and good at catering for vegetarians.

This place is totally authentic and very comfortable. The hosts couldn't be nicer and provided we three vegetarians with everything we could want. We stayed 2 nights. My kids did a lovely hike for several hours and since I was alone on my hike - and nervous about it - they provided the asst manager (a lovely young woman) to walk with me for 3 hours. The tour by 4x4 with the host of the terrain was fab!

We stayed at the campsite. Be sure to arrive early to enjoy the quite, views and wildlife. Spectacular night sky. Facilities are brilliant, very clean and good water pressure. Two campsites are relatively close one to each other. Bring insects repellent.
