The Country Lodge, on a hillside above Hill Station, has one of the most striking views in Freetown — across the city and the harbour to the Atlantic. The restaurant cooks an ambitious menu of Sierra Leonean and international dishes and is the most-recommended fine-dining option in the city.
Sunset, with a cocktail and the lights of the city coming on below, is the moment to be here. Reservations essential and the road up is rough — take a 4x4 or a reliable taxi.
