The Lodge

Nooishof Guesthouse

Nooishof lies off the C27, about 60 km north-west of Helmeringhausen, inside the 25,000-hectare Sinclair Nature Reserve between the Namib Sand Sea and the Tiras Mountains.

Owners Marc and Mariza Pampe — who built and ran Mushara in Etosha for 26 years — welcome guests to four suites around the shared farmhouse, Ouma House, with farm-style food from the kitchen garden.

Peace, connection and awe: walks and e-bike outings, late-afternoon nature drives to viewpoints, and sunrise and sunset from the Ouma House stoep. Minimum stay two nights; closed in December and January.
