A nice, brand new campsite right next to the Great East Road at Chongwe Bridge. Big rigs can park in the parking area with access to the beautiful garden. Ample space for ground tents and RTT’s closer to the river. Loose standing ablutions with option of using the facilities of a room. Room prices are ZKW 250 and camping ZKW100ppn neg. Road noise inevitable. Did not stay as it was too early and we wanted to get to Lusaka.
We don't have any photos of this place yet.
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.
Camping K100pppn rooms 250 to 300. Camping would be super noisy with trucks etc so taking a room probably the best option. Decent pizza available at Panarottis at the Rubis fuel station in Chongwe.
Report Check-Incould be nice! But it is not.
Anyway a safe place in Chongwe with acceptable and affordable restaurant (we payed 150 kw for 2 chicken with chips and salad) and bar.
You can get the key of a chalet for shower.
Camping is 125 kw pppn.
Staff not helpful, not kind. Rooms for 250 is very bed, a little bit better cost 300. i am not recommended this place. We were very tide )
Report Check-InBig rigs in car park only.
Needs a good clean!
No showers and no water for our tank.
Last resort ?
Big rigs in the dirty car park only.
No shower or water for our tank.
A last resort I would suggest?
A very local place, a bit like staying in a village with chicken crying at night and hammering in the morning, yet it is a closed area so we felt safe. You can park your campingcar anywhere and we got a roomkey to use the toilet and shower (cold water).
She wanted KW100 per person, I said my child (13 years) should be free and that was accepted. It seems to be the last place East of Lusaka before the Bridge camp and it is difficult to find a spot to wildcamp in-between.
