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.

Evelyn’s experience truly shines, her calm and know how made our stay an absolute breeze, even when things seemed to be going a little slowly at first as they had a large workshop party (that admittedly had an amazing time). Truly appreciative of the time and space we had, the feel is as rustic as it was when I came here 28 years ago. Nathan and the rest of the team were just as great.
