Luxury Holidays At House In The Wild

House in the Wild is a charming six-cottage estate set beside the Mara River within Kenya’s Enonkishu Conservancy. As a family-owned property, this is an authentic and inviting stay in the Masai Mara, with exclusive wildlife viewing opportunities and plenty of exciting activities.

The six cottages of House in the Wild are an ode to their stunning setting, in both the design which uses local craftmanship and places a focus on the views which overlook the Mara River, and the sustainability initiatives. With wildlife now returning to the area after years of rewilding, guests now have the opportunity to witness Kenya’s flourishing game; many animals pay a visit to a nearby waterhole, making sightings very common.

From game drives to guided walks, or simply cycling round the property, there are plenty of activities to keep every age entertained. This means that House in the Wild is as ideal for an animal-loving couples’ getaway as it is for an awe-inspiring family adventure.

Why House In The Wild is so special...

Wildlife Encounters

As a private estate in the Enonkishu Conservancy, House in the Wild offers a front row seat to some of Kenya’s local wildlife. The area has flourished in recent years and is now home to abundant game, much of which can be spotted around a huge watering hole minutes from the property. It is not uncommon to see giraffe, zebra and warthog happily grazing in front of you throughout your stay. But for those who want to get closer to Kenya’s wild heart, there are also day and night game drives across the Enonkishu, Lemek and Ol Chorro Conservancies, and visits to the White Rhino Sanctuary.

Whilst out on a drive, you can also arrange for a bush meal right in the middle of the Mara! Or join the rangers on a guided walk or trip to the cattle market.
