Very lovely, friendly and beautiful place. We stayed in the Rondel for 6 nights and enjoyed it very much.
Thank you Martina and Team for everything! Hope to come back soon! Koni - Barbara

Lovely place. Delicious home-grown vegetarian food can be bought in the restaurant. Cost 10000 Malawian Kwasha per person per night (plus 1% tourism tax) to pitch your own tent somewhere on the grounds. It is a heat wave at the moment so they built a shelter for our tent or car which was really nice of them. Clean showers and ablution facilities. There are a few rondavels as well.

Loved this place. Martina and her work are inspirational. They put up shading for our tent so it was cooler. Food at the restaurant was delicious, fresh and satisfying. Turkeys were great company.

Very friendly staff and owner, with a beautiful project. However, it's not really a campsite, you park in the garden. It's super kids friendly, very nice playground!
Price correction: 10.000 mwk per person and 5000 mwk for kids add to that 1% levy fee.
Still the best option close to Blantyre.

We stayed one night with our big rig (height 3.5m) at this lovely and interesting place and had a quiet night; clean bathrooms. K 10,000 for two adults incl. vehicle per night. Martina (German) explained to us "smarter farming" (without expensive artificial fertilizers) and the sustainable building techniques project (e.g. building a house with bamboo and clay for just USD 500) both offering new perspectives for less developped countries. It was great to see how passionate the people of Ecolodgy work for their social and nature aims.

15,000 for a dorm bed (7 beds in mixed dorm and 6 beds in Female dorm) mon-Fri. A little more expensive during weekend

48,000 for the stone cottages which fits 4 people. It has two bedrooms

There is also some mud huts that fit two people.

We unfortunately didn’t stay as they were fully booked for stone cottages. Had a look through dorms and they were very cool and nice bathrooms

We stayed at this beautiful place for two days and really enjoyed it very much.
We immediately felt at home in this little paradise....it's like a home far away from home.
Martina is very friendly and helps with everything.
She showed us some beautiful places in the near where we could eat Italian food and enjoy the beautiful surroundings.
Martina also bakes beautiful and healthy bread and offers tasty ice tea.
It' s a place that we can really recommend for a tranquil and relaxed stay.
Thank you, Martina and your cute and nice little daughter Aria.
