Ol Pejeta Ranch House - Serena Hotels -(Kenya)

Location:

Sweetwaters Game Reserve. Three hours' drive from Nairobi, half an hours' drive from Nanyuki or Mount Kenya Safari Club. Set against the spectacular backdrop of magnificent Mount Kenya, Ol Pejeta Ranch House, in 24,000 acre Sweetwaters Game Reserve, still retains the bygone tradition of Kenya's famous farmhouse hospitality. Its fascinating history started over seventy years ago when Ol Pejeta was originally part of the Masai homelands. 

A former owner, Lord Delamere, together with his partner Marcus Wickham-Baynton, turned the vast tracts of land into a highly profitable, well-run ranch. Subsequent owners included Christina Onassis' father-in-law, Roussel, and in due course Adnan Khashoggi, who used the ranch house as his private hideaway. Exclusive Ol Pejeta has since been restored to its former glory as a traditional farm house. The six elegantly appointed bedrooms all overlook extensive tropical gardens, and chefs delight in creating country-style cuisine from the ranch's abundant home-grown produce.

Accommodation:

Accommodation is provided in six suites; with two deluxe suites, 2 guest suites and Buffalo Cottage which has two self-contained luxury bedrooms, with en-suite facilities and verandahs, and a shared sitting room.
