Luxurious holiday home on the foothills of Mt Kenya

Ol Endeti is a stunning house in the wild located near Nyeri town and sits in between the foothills of Mt Kenya and the Aberdares National Park. The house carries with it a long heritage dating all the way back to 1948 when it was built, and is situated on 22 acres of beautiful farmland. Today - fully restored - it offers a luxurious space for holidays, weekend getaways or longer staycations from Nairobi. Our expansive, serene garden borders the national forest of Mt Kenya. This gorgeous and abundant natural space is for those who want to spend their time in tranquillity and reconnect with themselves, friends and nature.

This lovely heritage home consists of five ensuite bedrooms, a living room with a fireplace, a dining room, a fully equipped kitchen and a conservatory. There are also fireplaces in three of five bedrooms and all the spaces in the house look out onto Mt Kenya. Outdoors, you'll find a heated 15m swimming pool with a direct view of the mountain and tennis court. The house can comfortably accommodate up to twelve people and is offered on a self-catering basis, although a cook is available should you need one. 

Ol Endeti is the perfect stopover between Nairobi and Nanyuki and makes the ideal base for exploring the areas around Mt Kenya and the Aberdares National Park. It’s just over an hour away from the famous Ol Pejeta Wildlife Conservancy - home of critically endangered black rhinos - and close to the Sweetwaters Chimpanzee Sanctuary where you can meet chimpanzees, among a plethora of other wildlife.

So book a stay with us now in what is one of the most alluring and distinctive holiday homes in Kenya!
