| High on the slopes of Africa's second highest mountain, The Mount Kenya Safari Club straddles the Equator in a glory of luxurious cottages and elegant buildings set amid manicured lawns and decorative ponds. Ever since the Club was founded in 1959 by the late film star William Holden, eccentric American Ray Ryan, and Swiss financier Carl Hirschmann, it has been a Mecca for the international jet set - its list of members reads like a Who's Who of royalty, aristocracy, and t h e rich and famous. |
 |
| The Club's history is as colorful and exciting as its members and visitors - from the pioneers who made the homestead and the farm their own, through its conversion into an upcountry hotel, to the uproarious narrative of the three-hell raisers who bought it on a whim and launched a legend. |

| Set against the spectacular backdrop of magnificent Mount Kenya, Ol Pejeta Ranch House, in 19,000 acre Sweetwater s Game Reserve, still retains the bygone tradition of Kenya's famous farmhouse hospitality. Its fascinating history started over seventy years ago when Ol Pejeta was originally part of the Maasai homelands. |
 |
| A former owner, Lord Delamere, together with hi s partner Marcus Wickham-Baynton, turned the vast tracts of land into a highly profitable, well-run ranch. Subsequent owners included Christina Onassis' father-in-law, Roussel, and in due course Adnan Khashoggi, who used the ranch house as his private hid e away. Exclusive Ol Pejeta has since been restored to its former glory as a traditional farm house |
 |
The six elegantly appointed bedrooms all overlook extensive tropical gardens, and chefs delight in creating country-style cuisine from the ranch's abundant home-grown produce.
Accommodation: Accommodation is provided in six suites; with two deluxe suites, 2 guest suites and Buffalo Cottage which has two self-contained |
| luxury bedrooms, with en-suite facilities and verandahs, and a shared sitting room. |
