Namastat - Springbok - Campsite Review

 Namastat - Springbok - Campsite Review

• Namastat Campsite
• Springbok
• Northern Cape
• South Africa

Date Visited: August 2021 (had visited previously as well)

This campsite in Springbok is part of the Country Hotels group. You check in at the hotel reception.  But the campsite is not their priority and, sadly, it’s not in a good state. We will not be staying here again (there are some nice ones around Springbok). We found the maintenance lacking, the dishwashing facilities dirty and neglected and some rubbish lying around. Also, they have wooden chalets as well and unfortunately, they allow very noisy parties (numerous complaints to the hotel security and reception resulted in absolutely no response) and vehicles racing around the campsite at night. 

 

On previous visits, prior to the hotel being built and the wooden shacks being erected, we had a lovely time at Namastat and the place was really nice and clean.

 

What we liked about this campsite:

• Close proximity to Springbok
• Views from the campsite

What we did not like:

• Old ablutions
• Dirty and unkept disk washing facilities
• Lack of management - (allowing noisy party all night and doing nothing even when we complained multiple times)
• Lots of the sites are not level
• General lack of maintenance and cleanliness.
