Laragai House is a private home but is available for rent when the owners are not in residence. It is a house of spectacular beauty and can sleep ten guests in extreme comfort. The house is built on the edge of a 3000 feet escarpment which provides stupendous views - Lolokwe and Wamba Mountain dominate the far horizon to the north and Mt Kenya looms out of the clouds to the south.
The house was built as a country retreat for a Nairobi businessman and is one of the most opulent homes in the Laikipia, containing an eclectic mix of styles and textures and antiques from all over the world. The rooms are very large and luxurious, with well appointed bedrooms and fully ensuite facilities. The house has a full staff, all of whom are attentive yet discreet.
Laragai has a heated swimming pool and a swimming pool house equipped with its own bar, kitchen and bathroom facilities. There is also a clay tennis court - racquets and balls are provided. The property has its own airstrip and access to the all weather strip at Borana Ranch. There is a wealth of game on the estate as well as the easily accessed game parks of Samburu, Shaba, Buffalo Springs, Meru and Mount Kenya National Park.| Style | Opulent country house | | Air/Con | No. Open fires in the evenings. | | Dining | Yes | | Children | Yes | | No. of Bedrooms | 5 | | Pool | Yes, heated pool | | Activities | Swimming, tennis, riding on Borana ranch, fishing (for trout at 11,000ft on Mt Kenya), game drives, guided walks | | Price Range | Please ask for details |
