Weathercock House and its enchanting garden share the air, peace and fertility of Kenya's tea-growing highlands, where Nairobi seems distant as another planet. And yet, as a photo shows, the city still seems so close, you could skip down the lawn and launch yourself into its roiling imbroglio. The house itself is spacious, a bit old-school, but warm and comfortably furnished, with original art works by famous Kenyan artists. The garden is a treasure trove of birds and trees and flowering plants. The space The house is fully burglar proofed and Chalo, our guard, patrols the property at night. In addition, various alarm buttons are accessible to activate the G4S emergency response team. Guest access The kitchen is well equipped with gas/electric cooker, fridge, microwave, blender and electric kettle. There is an outside patio and barbeque facility. We have recently installed STARLINK for a high speed, low latency internet connection. Other things to note Please plan on self- catering, although there are good restaurants nearby (within 4km), including Nifty, Brakenhurst, Kentmere and, the latest, Como, a gourmand's delight.
