Ol Pejeta Ranch House, Laikipia, Kenya

Ol Pejeta Ranch House, on the Ol Pejeta game conservancy, is set against the spectacular backdrop of Mount Kenya. The property has been restored to its former glory as a traditional farm house set in extensive tropical gardens with accommodation provided in six suites; with two deluxe suites and two guest suites in the main house and Buffalo Cottage which has two self-contained luxury bedrooms with en suite facilities, verandas and a shared sitting room with central fireplace. "Mr. Khashoggi"'s suite overlooks a private swimming pool, while the main swimming pool is located in the grounds next to the tennis courts.

For those who prefer outdoor activities, game walks escorted by a knowledgeable ranger, game drives and riding safaris ensure that you are constantly aware this is the "real Africa".
