Accommodation
Our four thatched rondavels can be used as single, twin or double rooms. Each has en-suite shower and W/C, mosquito nets and it抯 own thatched summer house.
For families, we have two larger chalets. Each consists of two twin or double bedrooms, both en-suite. The larger of the two chalets also has a central private sitting room & patio.
Dining
Our emphasis is on good home cooking. We rely largely on our own farm produce of pork, game meat, fish, fruit and vegetables.
As the sun goes down, guests can help themselves to the range of drinks that are laid out beside the water hole. The early evening can be spent beside the fire, watching wildlife or enjoying the sunset.
Tour of agricultural operations Guests have the opportunity of taking a guided tour of Kafue Fisheries, the largest integrated pig/fish farm in Africa, where they can experience farm operations first hand.
Activities
Swimming can be enjoyed either in our adult pool or the splash pool for children.
Game Walks:The game farm can also be explored on foot, as there are no dangerous predators. Game walks are perhaps the best way of viewing game and birds up close. We have viewing towers to get a better view of the flood-plain.
Boat Trips: The Kafue river forms one boundary of the game farm, and a boat ride is an excellent way to experience the bird life and scenery from the river.
Horse-riding is available at dawn & dusk for experienced riders & provides a unique way of seeing the game.
Game Drives and Walks An open-vehicle game drive will allow you to see many antelope species, zebra and if you are lucky our family of Giraffe. Over 420 bird species including many wetland birds can also be seen. Drives and walks are accompanied by our experienced guide Joshua. Fishing Our well stocked fishing dam is set in picturesque surroundings near by the lodge. Fine catches of carp and bream are common.
