Rural home surrounded by 65 acres of bush
Our stay at Agnes's house was magical! The house is nice and spacious, fully and wonderfully furnished and beautifully decorated. Kitchen is extremely well stocked with all you could need. The view from the veranda in the morning is spectacular. Robert the care taker is an absolute legend and took such good care of us. The garden/bush was a great adventure area for our kids. Its really a quick drive to nanyuki. We will definitely be going back! Thank you Agnes!

A cabin in the suburbs
A Hidden Gem Away from the Hustle I had the pleasure of staying at Eric’s BnB, and it was nothing short of amazing. Nestled away from the busy town, this place offers a peaceful escape with a perfect blend of traditional charm and modern comfort. The design is thoughtful, authentic, and inviting—everything from the rustic touches to the well-equipped amenities made the stay feel both cozy and luxurious. Eric was a fantastic host—warm, attentive, and full of helpful tips about the local area. If you’re looking for a serene spot to unwind and reconnect with nature or simply enjoy some quiet time in a beautifully styled home, this is the place. Highly recommend, and I’ll definitely be back!

Your getaway in Nanyuki!
Amazing place and every peaceful with so much nature surrounding all around. We did a game drive which was fun and got to see all sorts of animals. Only wished we stayed longer than the two days. It was definitely worth getting away from the city for a bit. Tina was super friendly and always communicated if we needed anything. The chef was amazing as well. Loved the food!! Can’t wait to come back!
