Facilities
Morgan Kunda Lodge offers clean and comfortable facilities, including a restaurant, lounge, and viewing platform for birdwatching.
Our spacious twin rooms have an en-suite toilet and shower. There are ceiling and floor standing fans, plus mosquito screens in the windows and nets.
See our reviews for comments on the exceptional cleanliness of the rooms (we have the proudest cleaners in The Gambia).
This is for the exclusive use of our guests. Meals and drinks can be served on the platform while you relax and enjoy the local birds and the view of rural Gambia.
The land from the platform, all the way to the river has been designated as a tourism development area and is therefore protected from development other than for wildlife. This was as a result of an initiative by the Morgan Clark Foundation.
We welcome groups to use our onsite training facility, which has hosted events like a midwife training course with the Morgan Clark Foundation.
Open to local and international professionals in fields such as health, tourism, and eco-tourism, we’ve attracted interest from organizations like ICRT West Africa and ITTOG for training students from Leeds Beckett University, UK.
As a charity we have limited funds and so we have to spend wisely. In 2019 we decided to have our lodge re-wired and brought up to European standards. This has cost a huge amount of money and meant that the luxuries of air con and solar water heaters will have to wait. Electrical safety is a major problem in The Gambia, particularly when travelling up country.
