Lewa House
Lewa House, Lewa Conservancy
Lewa Conservancy, central Kenya
Lewa House is set on top of a hill with an engaging panoramic view of the rolling landscape of the Lewa Conservancy, with Mount Kenya to the south and the rugged Mathews Range and the sacred mountain of Ol Olokwe to the north.
The accommodation at Lewa House is in the form of cottage-style rooms which are spread out along the hillside, all looking to the expanse of wilderness to the north. The heart of the property is a large, elegant building with an open fireplace at one end where guests can relax during the day and mingle with a drink before dinner, and at the other is a large family dining table where the evening meals are served.
Beautiful, shaded gardens surround the house and breakfast, or lunch is often served on the lawn. The house also has a large swimming pool that overlooks a waterhole providing some of the best game viewings on Lewa.
Lewa's wide range of ecosystems provides a naturally rich wildlife experience. All of the Big 5 are found on Lewa, making up some of the 70 animal species and 350 bird species found here.
