Aberfoyle Lodge is a boutique guest lodge situated in the Honde Valley in the east of Zimbabwe. Amongst pristine riparian forest, tea fields and macadamia plantations, the views are spectacular. There are 15 fully catered rooms at the main lodge as well as 2 self-catering houses available. A range of activities are available, from golf and swimming, beautiful guided walks, to putt-putt and ziplining. A highlight in our activities list is the guided bird walk.
