Ol Malo Lodge is a family-owned and -run Kenyan ranch in a private conservation area in Kenya’s northern Laikipia Plateau region. This rugged landscape spans 5000 acres (2023 hectares) of hills and valleys overlooking Mount Kenya, and has been rehabilitated from overgrazed cattle farmland back to its original wild state. The lodge itself consists of four thatch-and-stone private cottages along an escarpment, with glorious views across the valleys and mountains beyond. Ideal for a romantic getaway, Ol Malo also offers guests a unique opportunity to experience day-to-day life on a working Kenyan ranch

The lodge
Ol Malo Lodge’s main guest area is a striking blend of natural stone, olive wood and thatch set into the escarpment, which drops away steeply into the densely wooded valleys below. The huge lounge, bar and dining area faces the shaded sun terrace and infinity pool flanked by lush lawns and indigenous gardens. The atmosphere is homely and relaxed, with colourful Samburu artefacts throughout. Below is a waterhole that’s visited by leopard, elephant and everything else with four legs.
The rooms
Stone pathways wind from the main lodge to the four rock-and-olive wood cottages along the edge of the hillside. Each is completely private, with glorious views from the veranda and the huge picture windows facing Mount Kenya. These romantic cottages, which are roofed with thatch, are furnished with vast cedarwood beds, original hand-carved Samburu artefacts, rich natural textures, plenty of space and a truly authentic African feel. The en-suite bathrooms feature unique free-form stone baths.
