Looking for a cottage?
Cottages are perfect for travellers who enjoy feeling cosy and independent in the countryside. Usually small, traditionally built houses, cottages spread across one or two floors, making them great for families, or holidays with a little more privacy.

    Location directly at the lake with a terrace with sunbeds and a small pool overlooking a great view. The lodge offers an evening buffet for its guests. The shared bathrooms and toilets are clean.

    Superb location right on the beach with a nice small pool. Very friendly staff and nice bar with good meals. I really enjoyed my three day stay at Thumbi View. Large comfortable bed with mosquito netting and lots of hot water and big thick towels! The village is quite small with a few lodges and restaurants and shops but everything you need is here. Went out to a local bar with a pool table one night which was full of locals and very friendly with great Malawian music playing. I will definitely be back.

    We had a fantastic stay at Mgoza lodge. The room was spacious and clean. The bar/restaurant and garden areas are great places to relax and enjoy the stunning view of lake Malawi, as well as talk to other guests. Staff are very welcoming and helpful. The food was delicious. The local community around the lodge are friendly. There was often electricity cuts (not through the fault of the lodge) so a torch and battery bank was useful to have. We only wished we could have stayed longer!

    Very nice and cozy lodge right on the beautiful beach. The restaurant and the beautiful garden land one to let the soul dangle. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I will be happy to come again.
