Loisaba Cottage, Laikipia Kenya



In Amanda's missive about the Grumeti Reserves she wrote about our friend Humphrey Carter, who used to fly the helicopter at Loisaba Wilderness.  His lovely home is now open to our guests and we were lucky to visit it last weekend.  Loisaba have added two spacious cottages which blend into the bush and means that we can now take private groups of up to six people.  We had a private chef, car and driver and our own staff who made our stay very comfortable.   It is a great way to experience Loisaba and is just like being in ones own home.  

Like many of the conservancies in this area Loisaba was affected badly by the drought but there is plenty of wildlife and the numbers are growing everyday.  Alayne's research on lions is coming on great guns and the greater Kudu are no longer as shy as they were.
