It is advisable to come in your own car. Be aware that we are on 'village' dirt/murram roads so when it has rained things can be challenging, a 4 wheel drive is recommended but not essential during the rainy season.

We don’t offer any accommodation or services for your drivers, cooks, nannies etc. They are more than welcome to stay as guests, if registered.

Please remember that our cottages & water supply are all solar powered so there is a limited amount of power available. For this reason, we kindly ask that you DO NOT BRING ANY of the following items, as they require more power than we can provide:

There are 2 dogs on the site, please do not feed them or allow them into the house.

Our compound is fully fenced all the way round so there is no access to the river itself which means there is no need to worry about your kids falling into the river.

However, if you fancy a boat cruise, Chibby is a friendly local boatman who can pick you from our gate & walk you to his boat on the river just 2 plots over, from where you can either take a relaxing cruise on the river or he can drop you to the other side where you can go horse riding. Just ask Hope for his contact details.

Close by is Bujagali village, roughly a 15 minute walk or just a few minutes in a car, where you can find 3 restaurant/bars, several local food stalls and many adventure activities: rafting, kayaking, tubing, stand up paddle-boarding, boat cruises, quad biking and boat rides to attractions such as birding, fishing and horse riding.
