One & Only - Nyungwe National Park, Rwanda

In Southwest Rwanda, just south of Lake Kivu on the Burundi border, Nyungwe House is set amongst the rich tea-plantations of Gisakura, on the edge of the iconic Nyungwe National Park.  The forest was cited by Birdlife International as “the most important site for biodiversity conservation in Rwanda” for its 275 recorded bird species of which 27 are endemic. Home to a myriad of stunning orchids, butterflies, moths and other fascinating creatures and insects, the Government of Rwanda declared Nyungwe a national park in 2005, affording it the highest level of protection in the country.  The airy guest rooms offer plenty of space to stretch out, complete with a fully-furnished plush lounging area, allowing you to step outside to soak up the sounds of the wilderness and watch rare birds dart overhead. Keep an eye out for the jungle’s most mischievous residents; curious colobus monkeys.
