A 15 minute drive from Fort Portal town, nestled amongst 3 crater lakes overlooking the Rwenzori Mountains, this self-catering space, downstairs from my own living quarters, offers three quiet and spacious bedrooms, each with their own direct access to the grounds and a couple of small private verandas. The double bedroom is en-suite, while the king and twin rooms share a bathroom. The space offers a sitting/dining area and a simple, well-equipped kitchenette. Rooms are full of light, tastefully decorated, offer wonderful views and provide a comfortable, peaceful home away from home.
I do live at the property. The downstairs rooms, which are available to rent, have their own separate, sitting/dining/kitchenette space. My living space is upstairs.
