The Segera Farmhouse is your perfect family safari home, with its stunning sunrise views of Mount Kenya, beautiful interiors, huge lawned garden, private pool, multiple lounging and dining areas, as well as a fully equipped private kitchen.

Enjoy the relaxed vibes of being at home with your friends and family, while enjoying the endless views across the vast African plains.
The Greenhouse refracts with light through multiple glass windows and flickers with reflections from the surrounding gardens. Potted tropical plants and succulents enhance the feeling of the outdoors coming indoors in the large shared dining and lounging area. Soft linens, layered bedding and green shades create a botanically inspired two-bedroomed house with a double volume shared dining table and lounge. Both bedrooms have elegant en-suite bathrooms and dappled views out towards the wild foothills beneath Mount Kenya. In the morning the whole house is flooded with copper-coloured light as the sun-rises over this wild, untamed landscape. This villa is perfect for a family or two couples travelling together.
This two-bedroomed, two-building villa is perfect for honeymooners or families wanting absolute privacy—both rooms are generously sized with lovely en-suite bathrooms. They’re built on stilts connected by suspended walkways and both hover above the open-air living and dining space alongside a beautiful private pool. One octagonally shaped bedroom and one square bedroom give multiple angles of views across the river, the plains and Mount Kenya beyond. The waterhole and salt-lick in front of the villa make it a wonderful place to sit and watch wildlife from your verandah.
Right in the heart of the lush Segera gardens and surrounded by its own private garden of bougainvillea tendrils, cactus and verdant growth, Garden House has a secluded, romantic feel. Huge windows and glassed doors allow the garden views to spill into the house and the main bedroom’s Juliette balcony opens into the foliage. This two-bedroomed, double-storey house also has a beautiful kitchen, double volume lounge and an incredible outdoor stone bath. It’s just a short stroll to the refreshing saltwater swimming pool and day lounge. You’ll also find a double day-bed that can be set up for beautiful sleep-outs in the warm Kenyan air.
