Chichele Presidential Lodge

Sanctuary Chichele Presidential Lodge’s quality furnishings and discreet service provide the necessary level of comfort expected by the discerning traveller.

Sanctuary Chichele Presidential Lodge prides itself on the personalised service we are able to offer our guests. Special requests and dietary requirements are catered for. Delicious selections of breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea and dinner are all included in your stay. The chefs at Chichele prepare a wide variety of local and international meals. Vegetarians are also catered for at the lodge. Their fully stocked bar offers a wide variety of local and international beverages.

Before leaving for an early morning game drive to maximise game viewing before the heat sets in, a continental breakfast is served, or if a cooked breakfast is preferred, Chichele will whip up a hot delicious breakfast on request. Lunch can be enjoyed back at the lodge, or alternatively our staff can arrange a bush lunch in a special selected location for you. There is something special about a beautifully set table literally in the middle of nowhere…

The Sanctuary Chichele Presidential Lodge offers great game viewing opportunities with the Luangwa River often frequented by a wide variety of wildlife. You can go on morning and afternoon game drives or a walking safari.

Later on in the day, enjoy a delightful high tea with a selection of quiche, freshly baked cakes and biscuits before departing on your afternoon game viewing activity. Your evening game drive finishes with classic sundowner cocktails and canapés at specially selected locations. A favourite spot is along the banks of the Luangwa River where hippo’s wallow and animals congregate for their last drink of the day. Return to the lodge for pre-dinner drinks around the camp fire and a scrumptious three course plated dinner. If you are celebrating a special occasion the lodge can arrange a romantic private dinner under the stars…
