Private Wilderness is a new addition to Lewa Wilderness a family-owned and run property on Lewa Conservancy. This small five bedroom private house is built along the side of a valley; overlooking a stream, which attracts all sorts of game. The Craig family have created an inviting space that is comfortable without being over the top.
The pretty thatched guest cottages can be arranged as either a double or twin configuration, and the house can accommodate ten guests.
The main area sits nestled on the lower edge of valley and the open-front design provides beautiful views of the river below. There is a small swimming pool.
The horses at the Wilderness Stable are well-trained, allowing riders of all levels to enjoy the proximity to wildlife. You can practically touch the giraffe
About This Area
Lewa Conservancy is a 45,000-acre private conservancy that sits high on a 6000 foot plateau between the slopes of Mt Kenya and the dry arid deserts to the north. The scenery is spectacular with a lovely rolling landscape, big skies and rarified air. The wildlife is diverse and includes some of the species that are endemic to northern Kenya such a Grevy's zebra, reticulated giraffe and gerenuk. It is also a Rhino conservation area and there are good numbers of both black and white rhino.
We love Lewa for the diversified game drives, fantastic hikes, and great variety and freedom. In addition, due to its location we can access areas of great interest outside the private conservancy such as the forests of Mt Kenya, Nagare Ndare’s magical Blue pools (both recognized as part of the UNESCO designated Mount Kenya World Heritage Site ), and the vast northern frontier district. Lewa has an excellent and unique relationship with its neighbouring communities, allowing for great opportunities to visit some of the local villages and schools to get a feel for their customs and culture.
