Tassia Lodge – Laikipia Hotels
Tassia Lodge captures all elements of the Kenyan bush and is an ideal escape for those searching for a taste of an unspoiled Africa.
Tassia Lodge is set in a stunning wilderness area, situated on the 60,000 acre Lekurruki Community Ranch. It gives a spectacular and breathtaking view of the Northern Frontier District towards Samburu. It neighbours Lewa Wildlife Conservancy and Borana.
Tassia is perched dramatically on the edge of a rocky bluff, which protrudes from the Mokogodo escarpment and overlooks a valley filled with Acacia and Newtonia trees.
Staying at Tassia means removing yourself from the world as you know it (no tv, no internet, no cell reception) – whether walking through the bush or scrambling up to caves where the Maasai used to live, you will not meet another car or tourist.
Accommodation
There are 6 spacious rooms, which can be adapted for families. Each banda (bungalow) is unique and all are en suite with loo and shower. The side of the room facing the view is completely open giving an unobstructed view of the wilderness and wildlife below.
Other features of the lodge include a horizon swimming pool, dining room, bar, “Chill out area” and deck area.
The shop provides you with a eclectic mix of jewellery and clothes from talented Kenyan artisans.
Cuisine
Antonia is a Leith’s trained chef and creates exciting sumptuous food. The food is an exotic mixture of African, Mixture Eastern and Mediterranean cuisines, using home grown, organic ingredients. Antonia’s food has been highly praised in various publications including The Daily Telegraph and Conde Nast Traveller Magazine.
