Wild animals roam free on the farm and in the evenings hippo munch quietly by the waterside.

Loldia House, one of Kenya’s oldest colonial homesteads, is situated on a private farm covering 6,500 acres on the shores of Lake Naivasha. It is just a two-hour drive north-west from Nairobi and is within easy reach of Nairobi’s International Airport. It is a perfect place to relax and begin your exciting safari holiday around Kenya, whilst immersing yourself in the atmosphere of yesteryear. You’ll receive a warm welcome from the house manager at Loldia where nothing is too much trouble for the incredibly attentive yet unobtrusive staff.

Loldia House accommodation is comprised of nine en-suite bedrooms, either in the old family home or in cottages in the grounds. All rooms are furnished in an authentic colonial style. Daily afternoon tea is offered on the terrace, while at dinner time everyone gathers around the table in the dining room to share safari stories.

Adjacent to Loldia House is the Eburu forest, one of the last wild habitats for the endangered Bongo. The property offers visits into the Montane forests of Eburu, as a day trip (on foot or in a vehicle) with the option for fly camping overnight! All in order to support the monitoring of a small breeding herd of the elusive and shy Bongo.

Guests can also explore the farm at Loldia, with a guide, and enjoy the interaction of farming activities and the wild animals.Explore the lakes and mountains of the Great Rift Valley with day and night game drives, day trips to Lake Nakuru and Lake Elementaita, fishing, bird watching, golf and island picnics are all available through the lodge.
