This stunning private house is situated on Robin Pope’s Nkwali land, approximately 1 km from Nkwali Camp. This is an ideal place to stay for a family or group of friends travelling together. With your own chef and private guide and 4 x 4 vehicle, you are free to do what you want, when you want.
Built from twenty five fallen ancient and weathered leadwood trees, the house has a powerful but natural feel. The entrance side of the house is grand, castlesque and is exquisitely faced with stones from the hills. The massive door opens into the huge main room and instantly you see incredible views through the front of the house – which is completely open.
So, outwardly, the house has a traditional feel but venture inside and you find that each room has a totally individual and unique style. The sizeable living room is dominated by large comfy sofas and a huge marble dining table. The room stretches up two storeys, some twelve metres, to the thatched roof with wooden staircases rising out of the floor to take you to the upstairs bedrooms. The open front of the room leads out onto a terrace with large plunge pool to one side.
Each of the four bedrooms has a style of its own. Extra large beds, both king size or twin, fit into each room under one mosquito net. There is a wooden ceiling fan inside each net. The upstairs rooms have a suspended wooden balcony, where you can sit out at night with a moonlit view over the bush to the distant hills.
The Luangwa Safari House is extraordinary – large and powerful, this castle-like house gives you space and luxury with nature on your doorstep. With your own private guide, house manager and chef, your days are your own and they will help you decide how to fill them. | Style | Traditional bush | | Air/Con | No | | Dining | Yes - own chef | | Children | Yes | | No. of Bedrooms | 4 | | Pool | Yes | | Activities | Game drives, bush walks, birding, swimming | | Price Range | From about £1,000 for 4 people per night |
