Willow Bush

Idyllic bedsit, en-suite bathroom built around an indigenous African Bushwillow tree (Combretum Molle).

Complete with chattering hoopoes, killer fire for Nairobi nights, wifi, electric fence, backup inverter & generator, two verandas, drinkable borehole water, mature garden & trees.

5min walk from the Kitengela Glass studio, the iconic Kenyan recycled glassblowers famed for their vibrant chunky artistic glass pieces.

On the outskirts of Nairobi, 50min from Karen & 70min from Nairobi center.

The space

With a high roof & two verandahs, air scrubbed clean over hundreds of kilometers of the Kitengela plains this privately owned bedsit will allow you to find peace in the wild.Take a deep breath.

Listen to lion & hyena calling at night. Zebra chattering. Allow the serenity of the adjacent Nairobi National Park & Silole Sanctuary to permeate your being.

Or, stay at your new home, hang out on the verandahs - or nap on the comfy sofa in the mini living room to the sounds of avian life in the glade, the cicadas and quiet buzz of rural tranquility.

In the evenings snuggle round the roaring fire after eating a meal - this time prepped in the well appointed open plan kitchen - with all the necessities (gas stove, microwave, kettle, Dualit toaster, Smeg dishwasher, pots, pans, cutlery, crockery, glasses, mugs, oil & condiments) to reheat your takeaway or cook from scratch. We do not have a resident cook but we can recommend one for you. There are takeaway delivery options available - check the house manual for more info on that. There’s a big fridge that should be ample for your food storage needs.
