Resting peacefully on the river bank, in a grove of mahogany and acacia trees, the lodge is constructed essentially of natural materials, and is designed to ensure its idyllic setting can be fully appreciated.
Accommodation
All tents are under thatch, have en-suite facilities with hot & cold running water, twin or double beds, insect screens and solar powered lighting.
16 guests can be accommodated in 8 well-appointed safari tents, each on a raised timber deck with private veranda.
Access paths to
the tents run
through a grove
of Mahogany
trees behind
them, maximizing
privacy.
The
honeymoon suite has
a beautiful private
view of the Zambezi,
the escarpment and
the Chiawa River bed.
The tent is light
and spacious and the
en-suite facilities
are to die for: a
Victorian bath, his
and hers wash basins
and a shower for two
all in wood and
brass.
Dining
The spacious lounge and bar area has an observation platform built into its roof, providing one of the best views in the valley. Of course the dining area also looks out onto the river
and the animals which regularly come to drink and feed at and near the lodge.
Enjoy
barbecues under the
stars on our
al-fresco dining
veranda, while your
hosts oversee your
comfort and the
preparation of Chiawa's renowned
cuisine.
Naturally,
vegetarians are
catered for, however please give us advance notice of any special culinary requirements.
After dinner, retire
to the campfire and
enjoy a cocktail or
two while taking in
the sounds and magic
of the African
night.
Another viewing platform has been constructed in
the quietest corner of the lodge, overlooking the confluence of the Chiawa & Zambezi rivers. Sip a cup of tea or a Pimms while watching nature move at
her own
pace and savour the
tranquillity of Real Africa.
