Chongwe River House stands on the Chongwe River in Lower Zambezi National Park, Zambia. It has four en-suite bedrooms, sleeps eight, and is booked on an exclusive-use basis. It is the sister property of Time + Tide Chongwe River Camp, about a kilometre away.
The house
The architecture is the draw: there are no straight lines, and the house is carved from a single fallen winterthorn tree, with open-fronted rooms that look straight onto the river. It has won design awards. The staff team includes a chef, a butler, a pool attendant, a private guide and vehicle, and an armed scout for walks.
Why choose it
It suits a family or group who want a fully staffed house in a wild setting, with canoeing, walking and game drives arranged around you.
