After our adventure and long drive through the Budongo Forest, we finally arrived at Kyaninga Lodge very late at night. The lodge not only offers unique accommodations in carefully crafted log chalets, but the setting is stunning as well.
The Kyaninga Lodge is set on a ridge overlooking rolling hills and a small crater lake. The lodge is no wider than the ridge itself and a rather steep set of stairs snakes its way past each of the 8 cottages and leads to the main lodge with a small dining area, cozy bar and restrooms.
Outside, a set of decks overlook the swimming pool and lake below. The atmosphere is really great, very cozy and welcoming. When we arrived late that evening, a fire was roaring and guests were enjoying drinks in the bar area.The rooms are huge and feature a sitting area, huge bed(s) and well-appointed, luxe bathroom with shower, soaking tub and double sink basins. All of the furniture is handcrafted and the log chalets are simply so unique that I couldn’t help but find the whole place quite charming. The food was excellent, as well. The staff went out of their way to make sure we were taken care of after arriving so late the night before. I enjoyed my stay, thanks to its overall charm and attention to detail.
