Company information

Hello, my name is Winlady but my friends call me Winnie, I am a practicing advocate/attorney, born and raised in Arusha, and currently based full-time in Iringa (the magnificent Southern Highlands). Passionate about nature, off-grid living, and organic lifestyle. I give my guests space but am available when needed. I have a full-time job with a hybrid work model, I am always available to assist in person or via phone when working from the office.

Property information

This private cozy home is ideally located in one of Iringa's most affluent neighborhoods of Gangilonga. The house is about five minutes drive from the Iringa Clock Tower. It is perfect for someone wanting to experience the best this town has to offer. Public transportation is readily available a few minutes walk from the house. I can arrange a taxi, bodaboda (motorcycle), and/or tuk-tuk (rickshaws) on a need basis.

Neighbourhood information

The house is within a few minutes walk to the Iringa Sunset Hotel where you can access both local and international cuisines at their restaurant, local and imported beverages at their bar, a heated pool for the chilly Iringa weather, and a well-equipped gym for a fee. The house is also close to the Mount Royal Hotel, where you can access the Restaurant, Bar, and swimming pool for a fee. The famous Gangilonga Rock is a few minutes hike from the house (You can even see the rock from the dining room window), where you can have a panoramic view of Iringa and catch the sunset.
