Guest comments
"... as usual, a perfect visit." Larry, Ottawa (March 2012).
"... thank you for such a lovely stay in the beautiful Muhugu house. We absolutely loved being there; you've created such a tranquil, peaceful and perfect environment amongst all those big old trees and their attendant colourful birds. We are sad to have left and sad that we worked such crazy hours that didn't enable us to spend more time in the house and perfect garden. We'll be coming back for sure." Peter, Delhi (August 2011).
Owner profile
About the owner
Murangi House was built in 1952 by an English woman settled in Kenya. It is located in the leafy Nairobi suburbs of Karen (named after Karen Blixen, pen name of the author of Out of Africa). My family moved into the house in 1974, when I was just a child. It was an idyllic childhood living just across the road from the Nairobi National Park: watching giraffe from the veranda; feeding Sykes and Vervet monkeys in the garden; and listening to the distant roar of lions while drifting off to sleep at night. Many a wedding were hosted on the grounds of Murangi House, including my own! The house was situated on five acres of land, recently developed into an exclusive gated community, with Murangi House at its heart. We invite you to stay with us while in Nairobi and enjoy fabulous home cooking!!
