Near enough to Freetown for an overnight visit, yet deep enough in the mountains to feel as if you're lost in the wilderness, Tacugama is a wonderfully romantic experience. The four cabins, two of which have bedrooms level with the treetops, overlook mist-shrouded forest, so you can fall asleep to the sound of chattering chimps. Rates include a sanctuary tour.
If requested in advance, meals are available for US$15 per person, and you can buy drinks at the sanctuary gift shop. There's also an open-air kitchen area for self-caterers.
