Located 8km from Great Zimbabwe is this wonderful hilltop lodge overlooking Lake Mutirikwi (Lake Kyle). It's set on a sprawling garden property with rooms catering to all budgets, from grassy campsites popular with Overland trucks to basic rooms and fully self-equipped cottages.
Its quaint English-style restaurant is within the former homestead of pioneer Murray McDougal, who engineered the dam at Lake Mutirikwi used for the sugar-cane industry. Don't miss its fantastic roasts.
If you have time the Kyle Recreational Park is an interesting place to explore, with its population of white rhinos, but you'll need your own car as they don't have a boat.
