Farmhouse Lodge, Matopos

Just under an hour from the City of Kings, yet a world away in the heart of the stunning Matopos UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Farmhouse Lodge awaits you. The Farmhouse Lodge blends rustic charm with modern comfort, offering sweeping views of the granite hills, hearty meals at the restaurant and warm Zimbabwean hospitality. Guests can participate in the many activities offered on the property or arrange their own trips in the area.

In 1996 the original farm homestead was converted into a restaurant, bar and lodge reception.  The restaurant veranda overlooks the indigenous garden and rock swimming pool, where guests can relax by the poolside or spend the evening around the open campfire in the enclosed traditional boma. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner for lodge residents are served in the restaurant, where our chefs specialize in healthy,

home-cooked meals which can be catered to personal dietary requirements. Some days we offer a braai dinner where food is cooked on an open fire whilst sitting outdoors on a warm evening under the stars can be enjoyed.


The Farmhouse Lodge and Restaurant provide the ideal location from which visitors can discover the many natural wonders of the Matopos. Guests can participate in the activities offered at the Lodge or arrange their own trips in the area.


The Farmhouse is pleased to announce that we have a conference facility offering an ideal getaway conference venue in the spectacular surroundings. The conference room is 10 m x 5 m, built with French doors opening on to the garden and charming courtyard. The Farmhouse offers accommodation for 24 persons, meals in the restaurant, and conference teas and coffees are served in the courtyard. The lodge has basic conference facilities.  The lodge is equipped with Wi-Fi internet services.


Accommodation

The Farmhouse guests are accommodated in 12 Cape Dutch style cottages which are built on the fringe of a majestic granite outcrop. Each individual cottage has a twin bedded bedroom, en-suite shower, toilet and wash-hand basin, open plan lounge with tea/coffee facilities and fridge.

Staying at Farmhouse Lodge was really great! The owners are super friendly and great hosts. We did a cave painting tour, which was very interesting and the way there too. Later we did a little safari tour and it was fantastic. The zebras were right by our van. It was really great
