Set on the foot of Kilima Kiu Hill, (meaning 'that hill', sometimes 'black hill'), one and a half hours' drive from Nairobi, is this lovely boutique country home that belonged to a famous rancher, Sir Frank Joyce, who arrived in Kenya 1911.
The ranch grounds have lived since then and with every new owner a breath of fresh air and activity is infused. From ostrich rearing to cattle ranching and even dairy farming,this manor has been home to clotted cream, raspberry jam and warm scones.
