This historic property, once the personal bush retreat of President Kenneth Kaunda of Zambia, has a magnificent hilltop location in Zambia's premier game viewing area, the South Luangwa National Park. Carefully restored to preserve its turn-of-thecentury elegance, Sanctuary Chichele Presidential Lodge is approached through a majestic arched entrance leading to a huge colonial style lounge. The lodge is accessible year-round and is an ideal base for exploring the prolific wildlife that populates the different habitats that surround the Luangwa River.

South Luangwa National Park is a place of primeval forest and lush savannah, stretching for hundreds of miles and encompassing the Luangwa River basin, its adjacent highlands and a mosaic of different habitats extending outwards from the river which forms the eastern boundary.

Ten air-conditioned, elegant Victorian style suites are built on top of a hill, each giving guests a private panoramic view and the opportunity to savour the wonderful floodplain vistas offered by the site. Quality furnishings and discreet service provide the necessary level of comfort expected by the discerning traveller.

All suites boast air conditioning, en-suite facilities, mini bar, mosquito nets and hairdryer.
