Musketeers Lodge

Out on Matopos Road about 8 km from Bulawayo city centre, Musketeers Lodge borders Tshabalala Nature Reserve. This pet-friendly bed & breakfast is a handy base for The Nesbitt Castle, Matobo National Park and the Zimbabwe International Trade Fair.

A small, tranquil lodge set on rolling lawns with mature trees and a verandah — sunrise birdsong and a bush-camp breeze set the tone. There are six individually decorated guestrooms with pillowtop beds and premium bedding, satellite/DSTV, complimentary toiletries and self-serve tea and coffee.

Enjoy garden and terrace views, a restaurant and pub-style bar/lounge, plus picnic and barbecue areas and a cosy lobby fireplace. Wedding services and tour/ticket assistance are on hand, and guided Matobo excursions including 'Walks with Rhinos' can be arranged.

Internet/Wi‑Fi access is available (may incur a surcharge). The lodge offers laundry and dry-cleaning, coffee/tea in a common area, free self-parking and roundtrip airport shuttle service on request (surcharge).

On-site restaurant serves local cuisine and homely meals; full English breakfasts are available daily for a fee. Finish the day with sundowners on the verandah or a drink at the bar.
