Everything to do with food was excellent. They have a very well functioning restaurant with a great variety of menues: Indian Menue, Malawi menue, Italian menue. It would take many days to try and taste everything they offer. The environment is wonderful, a wood in the middle of Lilongue and plenty of playing monkeys that pass by you daily. Even deer were seen near my cottage as well as other animals. Electricity was always functioning. The internet depended of where you were but they listen to your request and do all they can to improve whatever you have mentioned to them.

Accessibility for people with mobility problems can be improved: They provided pathways for people using wheelchairs or walking aids, and there was a road sign telling people not to park and block the path to the restaurant/reception area, but the guard didn't correct people who ignored this sign. Some parts between the path between the cottages and the path to the restaurant should be hardened because it gets muddy and that's not nice for wheelchair users. Also they should put hand railings alongside the steps into the pool.

The staff were always friendly and helpful. The food and menu looked extensive. I should have had more time to try it all. The restaurant is packed every evening which tells a lot. Loved the monkeys!

At times the internet could drop out. But no complains really. I could still watch my favorite TV series on streaming service.

If rustic and colonial is what you want, this is the place for you. It is safe, secure and very quiet - so ideal for those persons who need to do a bit of work. The restaurant caters to all types of taste buds and there is definitely something in the menu for vegetarians, pasta fanatics, and meat lovers. Even kids will have no problem selecting something from the menu. There is a pool as well as great walking trails so you can count on having some exercise while here.

Only stayed one day; however watching the animals at play was great; service good; down the road from the wildlife centre. Lilongwe is very spread out so will need taxi to visit attractions. The food was very good and affordable.

Room was a bit musty; room spacious but a little dated however it did not detract from the stay.

The size of the rooms are great and you feel like you are outside of the city. If you work for International organizations, this is the place to stay and have a cozy feeling. The drive is less than 10 minutes to most offices!

The staff and the o were are friendly and so welcoming. The food at the restaurant is outstanding!

The Staff was very friendly and nice. The forest is beautiful and relaxing. The room was big and comfortable. The restaurant is worth it.

The pool was very dirty and I could not swim. The carpets in the room and bathroom were dirty and old. Better wash them or remove them.
