Rooms

Standard Tent

With only eight tents situated under the forest canopy, you will enjoy a peaceful stay with maximum privacy and intimacy. Tents are sturdy, with wooden floors, and offer a spacious, comfortable base from which to enjoy the forest. Each tent looks straight out into the jungle's canopy and features two queen-sized beds with headboards carved by Ugandan artisans. The en suite bathroom features a shower and a deep bathtub from which you can also enjoy incredible forest views.

Facilities

The central cottage offers a spacious, comfortable lounge area in which to relax on cooler evenings while you enjoy a drink from the well-stocked bar. Summer nights call for drinks and conversation around the campfire, sometimes enjoying an interesting talk about the forest and its irreplaceable ecosystems.

Dining

Enjoy your meals either in the dining room overlooking the rainforest or on a raised natural platform under the African stars. The chef offers excellent cuisine featuring African-inspired meals.

Afternoon tea and pre-dinner snacks have been replaced with a scrumptious all-day snack menu, offering guests a unique range of delicious delights.
