Not actually on Lake Nyabikere, but near enough to snag some views, is the wonderful Chimpanzee Forest Guesthouse. Set on manicured gardens overlooking tea plantations, there's a choice of renovated bandas (thatched-roofed huts) or rooms in the atmospheric 1950s colonial building with a fireplace and a superb collection of antique books on Africa.
Some of the quality food here is grown on-site. Birdwatching and guided walks are also on the cards. The entrance is 300m south of the Kibale Forest National Park office on Fort Portal Rd.
