Review
This intimate hideaway has views over the magnificent Laikipia region comprising savanna, hills and desert, with glimpses of Mount Kenya. Accommodation is in four luxurious houses set on a granite kopje (tall rocky outcrop), a boon for those who prefer solid walls to tents. Luxury perks abound: a stunning horizon pool, viewing platform with telescope, a deck with fireplace, along with Old World pursuits like bocce and croquet. Each hilltop “home” comes with its own kitchen, dining room, deck and full staff, including a dedicated butler and safari guide. The 360-degree views over the landscape are a highlight. Both day and evening safaris are available within the 14,500-acre private conservancy, as are horse and camel rides and even mountain biking.
