| Hidden away among the huge
ebony and fig trees on the banks of a beautiful lagoon sits
Mfuwe Lodge. The unique lodge with 18 luxury en-suite,
thatched chalets, each with a private decking area. |
|
|
| The deck area in front of the
lounge accommodates the swimming pool which also overlooks
the main lagoon. In between game drives, walks and meals,
guests may relax around the pool or in the well-stocked library. |
|
| The
open-plan central lodge facility incorporates
reception, lounge, dining and bar areas, under a
thatch roof supported by palm poles and dominated by
two impressive chimneys at opposite ends. This cool
and airy central meeting place is the heart of the
lodge. |
|
| The central meeting place
opens onto a broad timber deck that
cantilevers overlooking the main lagoon. From
the comfort of the lodge guests may view some of
Africa's majestic wildlife as animals come down to
drink. |
|
|
Hippos, antelope, crocs
and countless species of birds are plentiful in this area.
And the elephants often pay a visit to reception.
|
|
| Each
chalet is decorated with superb attention to
detail and is equipped with everything from
refrigerator to shampoo and mosquito repellent. |
|
| Each
sunken bath has its own private view of the
lagoon. What better way to relax and forget the
pressures of city life than to soak in the sights
and sounds of the African bush? |
|
| Another
distinguishing feature of the lodge is the meeting room
which an host up to 40 people. Secluded from the lodge and
built on stilts, it too overlooks a lagoon. Like other
facilities at Mfuwe, the meeting room opens out onto its own
private timber deck. |
|
|
Game drives and walks
are conducted by an experienced and knowledgeable
team of guides. Guests set off at first light or
in the late afternoon when the wildlife is most
active.
