Musangano Lodge
If you are looking for the ultimate getaway in the Eastern Highlands, with the promise of complete tranquility and spectacular scenery, Musangano Lodge is the ideal location.
Visitors soon fall under its spell because of its serene and peaceful atmosphere, charming accommodation, superb cuisine and stunning views, which invite to linger and unwind.
Spaced well apart for privacy, our tastefully furnished, comfortable and spacious units are set on the lower slopes of a tree-covered hillside, blending well into the surrounding Miombo mountain woodland. Guests may choose between the larger Lodges for families and friends or smaller Chalets for two.
Our PaMuchakata Restaurant has acquired an enviable reputation for serving delicious food, a blend of Central European and Southern African cooking - the best of the culinary arts of two worlds.
Tucked away amidst the magnificent green hills of Africa, Musangano is a mere three hours drive from Harare and half an hour from the border town of Mutare. It is ideally located for exploring the attractions of the Eastern Highlands like the Vumba Mountains, Nyanga National Park and Honde Valley. When you feel like stretching your legs, there are a variety of activities at hand on site and nearby to suit all ages and interests. Furthermore we offer the rare opportunity to organize trips into the neighbouring communities so that the visitor can get a first-hand experience of the lives of Zimbabweans today.
Finally – referring to the meaning of Musangano Lodge and our vision of ‘the place where people meet’ – we would be very happy to welcome you at our little paradise.
Yours sincerely,
Musangano Lodge Team
We have five spacious Lodges with spectacular views over the Eastern Highlands, their homely exterior inviting you to indulge in the comforts inside. You will feel completely at ease in the large living/dining area, tastefully furnished in an ethnic style with a fully-equipped kitchen. Between four and seven guests can be easily accommodated in the two or three cosy yet luxurious bedrooms with ample seating space for all in both the lounge and the outdoor covered porch. If you visit us in the winter, the fireplace will ensure a warm visit, and for summer visitors the covered veranda is a great place to enjoy a braai under the stars.
Cosy and comforting, these two Lodges hold the promise of a peaceful stay in tranquil and stunning natural surroundings.
Seductively secluded, Mukwa offers its guests an intimate setting within which to relax, unwind and enjoy the spectacular view across the broad Odzi River Valley.
Ample and airy, Mupembere is a wonderfully spacious Lodge within which to enjoy a peaceful holiday with family and friends.
Smaller and more intimate than the Lodges, the Chalets also offer you spectacular views and all the home comforts you could hope for. With DStv, a spacious fridge, indoor and outdoor seating areas and set in peaceful natural surroundings, they are the ideal option if you are travelling alone or with a friend or partner. In the evening, you can sit on the covered porch and take in the impressive views of the dramatic granite ramparts of the Eastern Highlands, or enjoy a leisurely stroll to the restaurant and pool area a mere stone’s throw away. On those cold winter nights, enjoy an intimate and comfortable evening with your loved ones around the fireplace.
Simply step outside your Chalet to enjoy the fresh clean air, beautiful sights and smells that the bush landscape offers.
Thatched, with a large stone porch, the Chalet blends perfectly into its natural surroundings, but is kitted out with all the necessities of modern living.
We are proud to announce that Musangano Lodge has added Cuckoo Nature Camp to its accommodation portfolio.
The picturesque campsite is an ideal stopover en route to Mozambique, Masvingo, Gonarezhou and/or the Save Conservancy. It is also a perfect location for touring the many attractions of the Eastern Highlands.

There are 6 sites available for individual campers as well as a larger site for overland trucks with space for more than 8 tents.
