Malachite House is a centrally located family owned spacious home in Victoria Falls, that has been turned into a terrific, homely holiday rental. It is ideal for families wanting to self-cater and have the comforts of a home environment, as opposed to a bed & breakfast feel.
Malachite House is made up of 2 sections which can be hired together or separately: the Main House or the Cottage.
Accommodation Options
There are 2 accommodation options (the Main House or the Cottage), which can be hired together or separately.
Malachite Main House

All the bedrooms have air conditioning and lots of storage in lovely built-in cupboards.
The kitchen has all you will need when dining at home, with a cute little breakfast bar, that opens on to the lounge area. Most meals are taken on the beautiful big verandah, accessed by sliding glass doors. The lounge has a standing fan to keep the area cool, with wall mounted fans on the verandah.
