Room types at Greystoke Mahale
Greystoke thatched rooms
The eight A-frame bandas at Greystoke are entirely in-keeping with the setting. When Roland Purcell established his camp here, he was conscious of the responsibility of ensuring a light footprint. Built of thatch and salvaged dhow wood, each of the open-fronted rooms is tucked into the treeline, almost invisible to the passing fishermen in their small canoes. The rooms all have verandahs and an upstairs chill-out lounge with views across the white sand to the vastness of Lake Tanganyika. The rooms are open-fronted with great canvas drapes which can be closed in the event of a storm. The twin or double beds nestle beneath a canopied net. A dressing area leads on to an en-suite bathroom. There's running water here, with showers on demand 24/7 and a flush loo. The rich foliage that gives the camp such character can be enjoyed while you are showering in privacy.Other lodges in Mahale Mountains National Park
