Ol Malo House

Situated on the northern edge of the Laikipia plateau, the family-owned Ol Malo House is built on the edge of a rugged escarpment looking out across the timeless lands of Kenya’s Northern Frontier District.

Ideal for exclusive groups or families Ol Malo House has three double bedrooms all with en suite bathrooms well as a large sitting and dining room with fireplace. Three further bedrooms can be found in two separate cottages, meaning that the whole property can comfortably cater for 12 guests, with plenty more room for young ones.

Decor is inspired by the area’s wild landscape, local flora and the life and culture of the Samburu people. Lighting handmade by the Samburu women creates a warm ambience and welcoming atmosphere and a flagstone path leads to a large open area overlooking the infinity pool, fringed by palms and this incredible land’s wide-open vistas. A barbecue area creates a wonderful place in which to end the day under a star-studded sky.

On offer whilst staying are walking safaris, camel and horse rides, mountain biking, picnics by the river, game drives, plenty of chances to meet the the local Samburu tribe and sleep outs in the Look Out by a waterhole which is visited by a variety of wildlife.
