Cariad Cottage is our private holiday home and we are happy to share our home with you. Cariad is in a rural location and will give you a true experience of Malawian village life. A beautiful location for quiet reflection and to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city. There are some fruit trees in the garden. Please help yourselves and enjoy your stay. Please feel free to use all the spaces but we would appreciate your respect with all items and spaces as this is our holiday home too. We are keen to share the village experience with you. This is not on the usual tourist route so our aim is to give you an insight into true village life. Please feel free to share your experiences/ sketches/reflections of the house with constructive feedback so that we can include that in our visitors scrap book. Thank you. The best way of communicating with me from Malawi would be via WhatsApp. My number: +44 (0) 7767397118 Cariad Cottage will enable you to get a feel for rural life in Malawi. Feel free to go for walks/ hikes (take Vincent or Chifundo as a guide) or to just enjoy sitting and relaxing on the veranda. Early mornings on the side veranda will delight you with beautiful bird life, monkeys and squirrels. I am always in awe at how nature can live so harmoniously. enjoy! Ideally try to hire a car as Gologota is rural. If not there are regular mini buses to/from Zomba and Blantyre. Generally the locals are friendly and helpful so if in doubt just ask.
