{"product_id":"farmhouse-lodge-matopos-bulawayo-zimbabwe","title":"Farmhouse Lodge, Matopos","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Farmhouse sits on roughly one thousand acres of private land along the Kezi Road, forty-eight kilometres into the Matopos hills south of Bulawayo. Matopos National Park borders the property directly, and the twelve stone cottages are built beneath a granite kopje — the rounded rock outcrops that define this landscape. Rooms are configured as doubles or twins, and nine of the twelve can accommodate a third bed. Each has its own outdoor sitting area, a small fridge, a tea and coffee station, and an en-suite bathroom.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe property has marked walking and hiking trails, and management provides a map. Game on the land includes giraffe, wildebeest, zebra, and warthog. Guided bush walks lead past cave paintings, grain bins, and an Iron Age smelter; some of the rock art on the property dates back ten thousand years. Rhino tracking runs into Matopos National Park through a preferred operator, Black Rhino Safaris. Mountain bikes are available to hire for the dirt trails and gravel roads. The Mabazvi rock outcrop behind the lodge can be climbed unguided — the trail begins behind Lodge Four.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe restaurant serves three meals a day, adjusted for dietary requirements. A bar, pool, and braai facilities sit in the central garden area.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSeparate from the lodge, the Worlds View campsite occupies higher ground inside the Granite Ridge Wildlife Reserve, with a communal dining and entertainment area, hot showers, campfire pits, and braai areas looking out over the national park.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"phasec-create","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43808523583547,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/6776\/2747\/files\/50719_2F1733226515684_mainhouse05.jpg?v=1784350814","url":"https:\/\/plekify.com\/products\/farmhouse-lodge-matopos-bulawayo-zimbabwe","provider":"Plekify","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
