The Sanctuary at Ol Lentille

The Sanctuary at Ol Lentille is a community owned safari lodge located on a mount in the northern escarpment of Kenya's Laikipia Plateau, immersed in East Africa's magnificence. The Sanctuary at Ol Lentille epitomizes responsible conservation tourism.

The four luxurious country houses enjoy fantastic views of the rocky peak of Mount Kenya, the Samburu sacred mountain Ol Olokwe, the Matthews Range and the Karisia Hills. The fully staffed country houses are all fully furnished and immersed in comfort. The houses are unique with each one promising a different experience. The Chiefs House enjoys fashionable African interior, including African artifacts and fabrics. The evenings can be enjoyed in conversation in front of the open fire in the living room or in the plunge pool on the outdoor deck. The master bedroom has a large open-air bathtub set among the rocks enjoying the moonlight.

Ample space provides the Sultan's House with a second bedroom if need be. The four poster bed stands lavish in the spacious house, with fine furnishings and designed in "Lamu" style (under a thatch roof with twisted papyrus), this second unit also boasts with a large sitting/dining room and a kitchen. Lovely brass-bound furniture and oriental carpets brace the two double bedrooms, sitting and dining rooms, and kitchen.

You have access to your own private open-air rock bath and views over our rocky hills in the direction of the deserts in this one bedroom house. There is a spherical bedroom with its colossal round bed and a private dining room/lounge with an open fire. This home is the Eyrie house located on the top of a hill decorated in an African retro fashion. Every House has a courtyard, and a lovely garden.

The Colonels House

In "Campaign" style, this house seems truly to be the bush home of a well-traveled military man. With brass-bound furniture, oriental carpets, and a beautiful "Knole" sofa in front of an open fire you can feel a connection with a bygone era of comfort and style. The House has two double bedrooms, sitting and dining rooms, and kitchen. Each bedroom has a dressing room and a sunken bath. The courtyard has a plunge-pool.
