Camp Mahon Gardens

I absolutely loved my time at this campsite! From the moment I arrived, Melanie and Eliud went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. They met me off the bus, spoke with the driver to make sure everything went smoothly, and even gave me a little orientation walk around the grounds. Their kindness and generosity really stood out - they were always happy to help, offering great advice and connecting me with local guides to help organise my stay. The rooms are lovely, with super comfy beds, hot water, and all the little comforts you’d hope for. The campsite itself is beautiful - full of flowers, peaceful spots to sit and relax, and even its own woodland walk, which I absolutely loved exploring every day. They also have dorm options in pre-pitched tents if you’re on a budget. Breakfast was amazing, and they provided perfect packed lunches for my day trips. In the evenings they even served a delicious dinner right at my bungalow - such a treat! The location is just outside of town in the best way - you get that calm, countryside feel while still being well connected. Matatus run along the main road right outside, making it easy to get into Nanyuki or head toward Nairobi. It’s also just next to the Trout Tree Restaurant, which is an easy walk if you’re looking for a nice lunch out. I truly can’t recommend this place enough and will definitely be returning next time I’m in Nanyuki!

I really loved the host! He was so helpful, always ensuring we were okay. His team was also quite awesome! I loved the meals there. And most importantly, the gardens were quite beautiful. I just loved it!

It get's a bit chilly at night so an electric heater would be ideal.

they can do better. lacks the wowing factor.
