Accommodation
The bedrooms at Chongwe River House are huge to say the least. All have been designed and built with natural materials continuing the theme of the living spaces. With 2 bedrooms on the ground floor and 2 upstairs all are completely open towards the river and perfect views of the scenery and landscape. The ground floor rooms have a rope screen for security at night over the front “windows”.
Every room has a super king sized bed but these can be made into twins for children sharing. Walk in mosquito nets provide protection at night.
The en-suite bathrooms are complete with a bath that is built into the frame of the house, hand basins and stunning waterfall showers.
