Located in the bush about an hour from the main tourist area of Senegambia, this traditional African lodge is perfect for guests looking to experience the 'real' Gambia. The lodge prides itself on its eco-friendly lifestyle, and uses a variety of local and home-grown produce in its extensive restaurant menu.
