Oudrif provides comfortable accommodation in 5 individual straw bale cottages, for people who relish peace and quiet and being close to nature. Fully catered, off- grid lodge situated on the banks of the Doring River at the Northern foothills of the Cederberg. Winter rains bring the largest outdoor flower display in the world; the pristine river provides opportunity for paddling, swimming, fishing and relaxing on secluded beaches. The area whispers of our past from Stone Age tools to San rock art. Our rates are all inclusive - meals and drinks served in the central boma; morning guided walks. You just need to jump in your car with your clothes and toothbrush, we provide everything else.
Our eco-friendly lodge accommodates a maximum of ten guests. We are solar powered and off-grid so you can turn off all your devices and enjoy true peace and quiet. The straw bale cottages provide excellent insulation in both hot and cold weather thus reducing the need for conventional power; there are fans for summer and gas heaters in winter. Oudrif is not suitable for guests with walking difficulties and who do not like animals.

Reviews
I was researching Namaqualand flowers and thought I’d look up Oudrif, where we stayed 10 years ago. I am delighted to see on the website that today it’s still as fabulous and unspoilt by the passing of time. A truly magical place to stay. I would have given it 5/5 then and hope this review is relevant for those looking now for something remarkably different.
You are truly at home and feel pampered and special and spoilt. Food is excellent, accommodation is rustic but super awesome. One of the other guests said attention is given to every small detail and that is so true. Thanks Janine and Bill.
