Set on the shores of Lake Kariba in Zimbabwe’s Matusadona National Park, Fothergill is a luxury safari retreat where adventure, comfort, and conservation come together in one of Africa’s most scenic and wildlife-rich regions.

Why

Unique Safari Experiences

Fothergill presents a distinctive blend of land and water-based activities. Guests can embark on guided game drives, walking safaris, and boat excursions to observe a diverse array of wildlife, including elephants, buffalo, lions, hippos, and crocodiles. The area is also renowned for its exceptional birdwatching opportunities, with numerous species inhabiting the region.

Commitment to Conservation

Operating in partnership with African Parks, Fothergill is dedicated to the restoration and preservation of Matusadona National Park. The lodge's initiatives focus on sustainable tourism, wildlife protection, and community engagement, ensuring a positive impact on the environment and local populations.

Luxurious Accommodations

Fothergill offers two distinct lodging options: the Lake Suites and Little Fothergill. The Lake Suites comprise five luxury suites and two family suites, all featuring private decks with lake or forest views. Little Fothergill consists of three exclusive-use suites, providing an intimate setting for families or groups. Each suite is thoughtfully designed with natural materials and modern amenities to ensure comfort and relaxation.

When

Fothergill is open year-round, offering unique experiences across different seasons.

  • Dry Season (May to October): This period is ideal for wildlife viewing, as animals congregate around water sources, and the sparse vegetation enhances visibility.

  • Wet Season (November to March): The landscape becomes lush and green, attracting migratory birds and offering picturesque scenery. While some activities may be weather-dependent, the wet season provides a tranquil and rejuvenating atmosphere.

Where

Lake Suites

These seven suites, including two family units, are situated along the lakeshore or within the mopane forest. Each suite features spacious interiors, en-suite bathrooms, and private outdoor decks, allowing guests to enjoy the surrounding nature in comfort. 

Little Fothergill

Comprising three exclusive-use suites, Little Fothergill offers a private and personalised experience. Guests have access to dedicated staff, including a private safari guide and chef, ensuring a tailored and memorable stay.
