Guests may also walk around the farm at their leisure to see cows, pigs, goats, chickens, donkeys and sheep, as well as see the cultivation of the mixed fresh produce you enjoy every mealtime.

Camp Fires

Evenings we light a camp fire and munch on muchomo (roast meat) and serve hot tea with fresh farm milk, or you might prefer some Tusker, Nile Special, or wine.

Sunset, also known as sundown, is the daily disappearance of the sun below the horizon due to Earth’s rotation. As viewed from everywhere on Earth (except the North and South poles), the equinox Sun sets due west at the moment of both the Spring and Autumn equinox. As viewed from the Northern  hemisphere , the sun sets to the northwest (or not at all) in the Northern hemisphere’s spring and summer, and to the southwest in the autumn and winter; these seasons are reversed for the Southern hemisphere 

Stable Management

Stable management involves all horse management activities. It includes different aspects such as care, shelter, exercise, medical follow-up, and so on. Good stable management is also essential for the well-being and health of the horses.
