Huntingdon Lodge was, without doubt, the highlight of our short sty in Malawi. We visited as part of a tour and stayed, with our family, for two nights. From the road the lodge is still some kilometres to drive and you finally draw up in front of the lodge with the well manicured croquet lawns opposite. From the time we... More
