Kameelboom Lodge

#1

Post by AndreasR »

This Lodge is located just outside Vryburg nd we stayed here as a stopover on out way home.

It has camping and chalets.

Campsites are adequate with shade. Ablutions are satisfactory. The main downfall of this lodge is the location to the main road. The noise is terrible from all the trucks.

As an emergency overnight stop it is adequate but I would suggest you look for a quieter spot if you want to get some rest.

... yes wife and I also stayed here in Sept
but booked a small single room
(w shower and toilet) for R600 ,
cooked breakfast for 2 was R100 extra!
We found it quite adequate and reasonable.
We avoided camping there because, as Andreas commented, the campsite is close to the N14 arterial road, and we thought it would be too noisy even though its to some extent shielded by some rooms/buildings.
The N14 between Upington and Joburg has a bad reputation for banditary etc so stops such as this can be useful... otherwise best to travel through and passed.
The main lodge is quite picturesque and has a Kameeldoorn growing out of the bar through the roof
and walls ...
Also a snap of some of their furnture made from
20mm*10mm rectangular tubing welded to frame
cut-to-size Kammeeldoorn wood ...which I plan
to make for myself at some stage.
