Further Information
Lewa Wilderness is the old colonial home of the Craig family. Here, guests
stay in one of just six ensuite rooms in stone and thatch cottages set amongst
pretty gardens. Each cottage overlooks the deep valley that runs
round the edge of the property and elephants and other game are regularly
seen down at the small rushing river below. The lovely, ensuite rooms all
have baths and showers - they're very pretty and well designed using locally
made furniture.
The Lewa Downs Wildlife Conservancy is part of one of the
first ranches to be established in Kenya. There is a very successful breeding
rhino population here and a good chance of seeing all species indigenous
to the northern Laikipia.
If you wish for meals to be served privately then there is a large veranda
and a sitting/dining room where you can eat in private. The mature gardens
are fabulous. There is a tennis court and a super swimming pool
to relax by. The main house has big fireplaces, comfy sofas and many places
in which to relax. Walking, riding safaris on
well cared for horses, night drives and camel trekking are available and several
days here will be easily filled.
