With panoramic views over the Samangua Valley and the Lewa Plains to the Ngare Ndare Forest and Mount Kenya beyond, Borana Lodge in Laikipia is set on a hillside overlooking a lake which attracts heards of elephants, buffalo and often prides of lion.
Borana Lodge has eight sustainable thatched cottages, each unique in style but all comfortable and cosy, with fireplaces and private verandas. Room 6 has a double room as well as a twin room for young children, and rooms 7 and 8 are often sold as family units. The sitting and dining rooms are within the main lodge. Log fires, rosewood tables and snug sofas create the atmosphere for entertaining evenings.
Fresh fruits and vegetables from the local garden provide the kitchen with fresh ingredients; cream, eggs, milk and lamb are from the ranch, while chicken is sourced from a farm nearby.
Borana Lodge also boasts a horizon pool, looking out at the herds of elephants by the lake.
