    There is nowhere your children will enjoy more – as a fantastically Colonial, utterly nuts way to start or end a safari than the Giraffe Manor.

  • “The Carr-Hartleys have created a dream lodge deep in Kenya.” Style

    They are one of those enviable couples who fit together like yin and yang and who have crafted a business and a life on entertaining in beautiful spaces they have designed and built themselves.

  • “Sasaab has a real African heart, but also theatre and thrills” Tatler

    At dusk, a leopard roars in the near darkness, and the nine tented rooms are beautiful – light airy, white washed, arabesque.
