WhitneyRating, 5 stars4 months ago

First off the cottage is beyond beautiful.Even gorgeous is an understatement.There’s so much space and it’s like a breath of fresh air. The horses and the friendly dogs were everything one could wish for. It’s definitely the standard if you want a good place to just enjoy quietly.

The Wagons, Loltunda Farm, Chumvi Borana Laikipia

FilipaRating, 5 stars3 months ago

Anikia' place is unique. Original set-up in the middle of a huge farm where you can take a real break from everything and disconnect. Kids loved the tree house and the zip line. Despite our original thoughts to do something around The Wagons, due to the remoteness and quietness of the place, we decided to stay and enjoy it as much as possible

Home overlooking wildlife conservancy

RicoRating, 5 stars5 months ago

We decided to treat ourselves on our camping roadtrip with a night at Stephanie. Late midday we stumbled upon this place and didnt look further. Luckily Stephanie responded within 5 minutes that we are welcome for the night. We were welcomed by the lovely Agnes, she lives in the house next door. And she is in for a good chat, wants to show you her shamba (veg garden) and she helped me to learn how to make chiapati. The house is amazing. Wide kitchen, very comfortable bed and bathroom. But the view from the terrace is out of this world. The perfect sundowner with wide views on the Lewa Conservancy. Even without binoculars you are able to spot elephants, oryx, gazelles and osstrich. I highly recommend this place.
