About Me

I am Mary and run a Homestay with my Irish partner Derry . We are based in Nakuru Town along the Nairobi Nakuru highway just behind Tuskys supermarket (st. Mary's estate). Our Homestay sleeps 6 adults. Breakfast /Evening Meal available on request. The homestay is just 5mins drive from Nakuru town and popular Restaurants , Bars ,entertainment clubs etc are within easy reach for a night out . We are also privileged to live near Hyrax Hill a pre - historic site ... Menengai Crater (hiking) and Lake Nakuru National park (full of native wildlife i.e lions, giraffe, Buffaloes etc ) all are within easy reach from the homestay and offer a great day out ... Hell's Gate National Park , Mt. Longonot , Thompson's falls are all within an hours drive from the homestay and are definitely worth a day trip to see.
A brief outline of us we are a fun friendly easy going couple actively involved in community & charity work in Kenya and Ireland.
