Wildlife Lodge is set within a glorious Yellow-fever
tree woodland along the Malewa River which attracts
over 250 species of exotic birds.
Once
a rudimentary lodge, it has been transformed
into a stunning luxury eco-lodge incorporating
a dramatic architectural style and traditional
African building methods and concepts.
The
mess area is a beautiful double-storey structure
made up of a massive thatched roof covering
games and relaxation areas on the upper deck
and a lovely communal sitting area with fireplaces,
dining room and bar on the ground level.

chimney exemplifies the creativity of the designer
Ben Jackson, who also designed Greystoke Mahale
on the shores of Lake Tanganyika.
Accommodation

with 6 bedrooms (one is a 2-storey family cottage
with 2 rooms) and 4 stunning river suites on
stilts (including one honeymoon suite with outdoor
bath), all offering spacious bedrooms with en-suite
bathrooms within an acacia forest filled with
wildlife.

Wildlife Lodge complies with the eco-footprint,
electricity is generated by solar power, waste
recycled, water drawn using hydro power, hot water
supplied by efficient 'kuni' boilers, cooking
done with gas and eco-bricks from sustainable
sources and food sourced from local farmers.
The lodge and
the conservancy will work closely with the surrounding
communities to offer wildlife courses, placements
to students and assistance to schools, clinics
and local enterprise. Malewa Wildlife Lodge is
a very special retreat. |

that includes gentle walks with expert naturalists,
fishing, biking, bush breakfasts or lunches besides
