This serene, tasteful permaculture camp is about being part of the environment and the community: helping local farmers and being completely self-sufficient. Comfortable glass-fronted chalets and thatch-covered tents are set in leafy terraced gardens, with private balconies and shared solar- and donkey-boiler-heated showers, composting loos and self-catering kitchen. See the mountain drop into infinity and spy Manchewe Falls from the swing chair.
In the veranda bar-restaurant (mains MK6000), accompany the views with a good veggie selection drawing on the organic allotments (ask for a tour), and meat dishes from sirloin steak to boerewors sausage. Lukwe is located 10km from Chitimba, above the steep zigzag hairpins, or an hour’s downhill walk (about 5km) east from Livingstonia on the mountain road to Chitimba.
