About
Us........
Since 1992
Being born and brought up in the serene environment of Kericho,we always found it odd for friends and relatives calling us to ask if they can come over and spend a few days with us. Accomodating them was a struggle but we always tried as best as we could because we love company.This need to fulfill guest desires led us to the idea to run our own restaurant. The family run business began with the desire to give travelers a nice and quiet place to relax and enjoy the beauty of the forest,listen to the chirping of birds and relieve the stress from the hustle and bustle of daily life. With a beautiful piece of land overlooking the scenic Kimugu River tucked away in the rolling hills of tea a dream was realized.Situated on the outskirts of Kericho town, just a 500 meters drive off the Moi highway there lies your travel destination.We understand life can take a toll and we know you deserve a break where you let us do the work while you relax and enjoy.Come pop in for a cup of chai and experience the magic for yourself.
