    The room had a kitchenette, so we were able to prepare a simple meal instead of having to go to the restaurant. The Lodge was also very close to a shopping area so we were able to purchase fresh milk for coffee.

    We have been 6 times to Tshikwalo and stayed in chalet no 19 ( ultimate favourite due to location in the corner with a fire pit ) and would return again to chalet no 19 for our next visit.
