Location and Access

Bush Pillow Guest House is located in Otjiwarongo, a town known as the world’s cheetah capital thanks to its long association with regional cheetah conservation work. Otjiwarongo Airport is about 6.2 miles away, and an airport shuttle can be arranged on request, though additional charges apply, so guests should confirm cost and timing directly with the guest house before arrival.

The town sits along the main north-south route through Namibia, making it a practical overnight stop for self-drive travellers heading between Windhoek and Etosha National Park, or those detouring toward Waterberg Plateau National Park, roughly a two-hour drive away. A short drive from the guest house also brings guests to a range of restaurants, shops and a shopping mall, so a car is useful even for those staying close to town.

Best Suited For

The guest house suits self-drive travellers wanting a comfortable overnight stop in Otjiwarongo, as well as business travellers who need conference facilities and complimentary parking. Couples and families travelling with a car may also appreciate the pool, bar and terrace as a relaxed base for a day trip to Waterberg Plateau National Park or Wabi Game Ranch before continuing north or south.

Practical Considerations

Guests relying on the airport shuttle should confirm cost and timing in advance, since additional charges apply and the service is offered on request rather than on a fixed schedule. Breakfast is served on-site, while the nearby Maxamesi dining room handles lunch, dinner and packed-lunch requests, and the Braai/BBQ area is a further option for guests who prefer preparing their own meals. Anyone planning a visit to Waterberg Plateau National Park should check current access and activity details directly with Namibia Wildlife Resorts, since park conditions and opening arrangements can change seasonally.
