Lilongwe’s liveliest backpacker spot buzzes with a mix of travellers, overlanders and volunteers relaxing by the pool and in the large, shady gardens. There are dorms in the main house, as well as chalets, A-frame huts, en-suite rooms and camping pitches in the garden, with shared ablutions in thatched rondavels (round, traditional-style huts).
There's also a bar, a cafe serving basic meals (MK2500 to MK4000) and barbecue stands. Fifteen minutes’ walk from the centre of Old Town.
