Other Details

Time stops at the property, giving one the opportunity to enjoy the wonders of nature that are everywhere you turn in this huge ranch. The wildlife, the natural cedar forest, meandering river and hot springs all usher one to a perfect holiday.

It also takes pride in a healthy wildlife presence. Crowned eagles, warthogs, buffalo, zebras and leopards are some of the animals that are at home inside ranch. There are also cattle, rabbits, geese, horses and donkeys which are a favorite for little guests at the animal yard next to an old farm house.

Children love playing with the domestic animals and taking donkey rides from one part of the ranch to another. A donkey carriage instead of the usual chauffeured limousine is another unique treat at the retreat. Horse rides cost Sh800 per person and are only allowed early in the morning or late afternoon. Donkey rides are free for children below eight years.

43 acres

The Lodge is built on 43 acres of the 1,800-acre property but it’s still big enough for vacationers to take long walks around. The club house, which has an Italian restaurant is a distance from the cottages. This allows for privacy for guests.

The lodge has several cottages to suit every taste. The Mahindu House is a well-known accommodation facility. It was built in 1943 and hosted Italian prisoners of war.

It has two furnished houses adjacent to each other. Both are spacious with several en suite rooms, kitchen and a terrace.
