Superb welcome from the staff who went out of our way to make this a pleasant stay. Fabulous location with views over Lake Elementaita and immaculate gardens full of birds. Loved the pool - clean, turquoise and a proper size for actual swimming in. Zachary took us on 2 brilliant walks down through the grounds to the lakeshore to see flamingoes and pelicans and other birds. Rooms clean. We had delicious meals on the verandah. It is also a fascinating historic building. We hope to return.

Everything! The location is stunning and peaceful, but only 2 hours drive from Nairobi. The tent is airy and beautifully furnished, with super comfortable bed, great hot shower, a small kitchen with fridge and microwave and there is WiFi (but you might want to switch all your devices off and just immerse yourself in the place!). We just lounged on the gorgeous veranda, watching birds and monkeys. The outdoor bath is spectacular, you can sit in hot water on the cool nights and watch the stars. And as a huge bonus, you can swim in the river which is 5min walk down the hill! The stuff and hosts are so welcoming. One of the best places we've ever stayed, highly recommended!

The location was breathtaking. It was the perfect getaway from the city yet so convenient to stay at for day trips to the parks around. The views throughout the day were beautiful and we had a lovely time hiking around the farmhouse. Mabel was always kind enough to show us around and took us to the perfect secret location where we just sat and enjoyed the views for hours.

The place is quite and remote and has the best safari view! We saw many animals from up close. The team was very welcoming and made sure we were good with everything:) The facilities were all working and the food took a lot of time to arrive but it was very good and cheap. We stayed for 2 nights and enjoyed very much!

    the location and views are quite good, and it is nice and quiet. The grounds are well done and lots of birds around the grounds. The service was very good, and the staff were very attentive. Staff were generous with their time, took us on a bird watching tour down by the lake and a 4 hour hike to a local 200 meter hill with great views of Elementaita and surrounding areas.

    The rooms are clean and spacious and the beds are very comfortable. It was so peaceful, I slept so well that I stayed an extra night. The staff are extra attentive and want to make sure you are having a nice time. The location is lovely, you can see wildlife from the terrace. It’s very reasonably priced.

    The location is great for people on transit as it is located along the highway, not perfect for those who value the tranquility of locations away from the road noise. All staff were friendly. Breakfast was generally awesome, though some fruits were not that fresh. The room (including the washroom) was spacious and very clean.
