The Morija Guest House is perched on a rocky outcrop overlooking the small historic town of Morija, in the Lesotho Lowlands (45 km south of the capital Maseru). Built of handcut stone and thatched with local grass, it blends discreetly into the environment. During the day there are commanding views of the surrounding forest and the village below. The sunsets from the front deck and the views of the night sky are unforgettable (a telescope is available). Below the main house, there are small cottages to welcome more visitors. The accommodation offered is rustic but comfortable and the rooms are tastefully decorated.
