 Tucked away in a
hidden corner of
Kenya's Great
Rift Valley,
Crater Lake
Lodge offers a
stirring
encounter with
wild Africa. This
magical lakeside
lodge is the
perfect stopover
en route to the
Nakuru and the
Masai Mara game
parks, as well
as a romantic
getaway by
itself!
At Crater Lake,
the wild world
of Africa meets
the refined
elegance of the
colonial era in
an utterly
enchanting
location.
This is the
heart of what
the Kenyan
settlers called
"Happy Valley",
that lush oasis
where the early
European farmers
forged their
first links with
the African
soil. Today, the
fine living of
that elegant era
has been
recreated in
this luxurious
tented lodge by
the shores of
Crater Lake.
Crater lodge
tents sit in
secluded
clearings in the
lakeside forest
with sweeping
views over the
flamingo-lined
waters. Each
tent is
furnished with a
giant
four-poster bed,
the finest
furniture and an ensuite bathroom
with piping hot
shower. The new
'honeymoon tent'
offers a
sumptuous
bedroom and a
deep sunken bath
looking over the
lake through a
giant
stained-glass
window.
History
The 10,000-acre
Crater Lake game
sanctuary houses
the famous
hilltop grave
where Happy
Valley's tragic
heroine, Lady
Diana Delamere,
is buried with
her last two
husbands,
Gilbert Colvile
and Thomas
Delamere. For
the truly
intrepid, there
are the
mysterious
'Caves of God'
in the golden
wheatfields of
Ndabibi, reputed
to be an
inspiration for
H. Rider
Haggard's Allan
Quartermain.
Crater Lake
offers special
escapes for a
wide variety of
visitors.
Bird-watchers
will thrill to the
170 species of
birds that live
in and around
the crater. The
Camp runs
regular painting
weekends with
famous local
artists, as well
as stargazing
evenings with
heaven-sent
astrologers.
crater Lakes's
lakeside
conference room
has been a
source of
inspiration to
countless
companies and
incentive
groups, with its
spectacular
setting and
pitch-perfect
peace, Crater
Lake is richly
deserving of its
reputation as
"Kenya's most
romantic tented
camp".
