Most of these properties are admittedly in hard-to-reach corners of the globe and may require multipart journeys before you can drop your bags and unwind. But that’s part of the allure.

Clouds Mountain Gorilla Lodge in Uganda

Clouds Mountain Gorilla Lodge in Uganda

At nearly 7,000 feet above sea level, the highest lodge in Uganda is just a short walk from the Nkuringo trailhead for gorilla tracking — but you’ll feel far from everything else. The closest major airport is in Kigali, Rwanda, about six hours away. If you fly into Kisoro (HUKI) you’ll still have a two-hour drive to the lodge.

Guests stay in private volcanic stone cottages, complete with a double-sided fireplace and a veranda, from which you can admire the sweeping views of the Virunga volcanoes and the ancient Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. Even with every cottage filled to capacity, you shouldn’t expect to share this sacred space with more than 18 guests. Double rates for Clouds Mountain Gorilla Large start at about £385 per person, per night during the low season and include full board and nonpremium drinks.
