I last stayed here 7 years ago and have known it for over 30 years in its previous incarnation. It does not change. The woodland is lovely and it is tranquil. Duiker can be seen in the grounds. The Indian food is excellent. There are multiple minor faults in the chalet rooms which seem to reflect a lack of supervision of staff. The breakfast, which is in a dismal room, is depressingly bad with no-one monitoring the quite meagre buffet.

In my opinion, the restaurant offers the best food I've eaten in all of Malawi. The owner visits restaurant patrons every evening. While the rooms need a bit of updating, the property is quiet and scenic.
