A home away from home.
Rooms and cottages on a family estate, run by people who will learn your name.
No lobbies.No hurry.
Rooms with the quiet left in.
Rooms and two-bedroom cottages around the main house. They are simple and comfortable, with the character of a place that has been lived in.
There are no lobbies and no queues here. You will be welcomed by name, fed from our kitchen, and left alone as much as you like. Families, couples and friends travelling together are all at home at the quinta; ask us and we will suggest the right rooms for your group.

The hours, uncounted.
Namaacha sits high on the Lebombo range, where the air stays cool even in the Mozambican summer. Days here keep their own pace.
