Charmed
by the warmth and hospitality of the Irish on a visit
to the Emerald Isle, in the last century, the founder
of Macushla House (Gaelic for ‘my beloved’)
opened the doors to those seeking the natural joys
of life. The Lodge style home offers peace and comfort
with facilities for conferences, seminars and workshops
on a small scale. The overnight accommodation is spacious
with ensuite bathroomsfor a maximum of ten guests.
Open beamed ceilings, natural |
woodwork, log fires in the lounges
and views over one of the last pockets of indigenous forest,
complement the serenity and style of Macushla. The private
study offers the business traveller a quiet corner to connect
with their laptop or the exercise bicycle - or both!
Wining
and Dining at Macushla House;
The bar and dining room take on an ambiance of intimacy
yet have been host to many a celebratory function and
informal business dinner. The food at Macushla will leave
you in no doubt that you are in a private home and not
a hotel. Meals are prepared with the freshest of ingredients
with particular care being given to presentation and simple
but wholesome cooking. The terrace and swimming pool are
regular venues for guests to relax, choose a tasty dish
from the daily menu offered throughout the day and evening,
or simply a traditional tea with a hint of indulgence
- scones, strawberry jam and cream.
The gardens are left to natural
growth and indigenous flora and bird life. The Giraffe
Centre is within easy walking distance and a short drive
will take you to Kazuri Beads Workshop, Utamuduni Crafts
for Conservation and Daphne Sheldrick's orphanage, home
to numerous orphaned elephant and rhino.
Surrounded by indigenous bushland,
in a suburb of Nairobi, birdsong and wind chimes accompanied
by flowing water from the swimming pool dragon are part
of the daily concert. Macushla House is a welcome alternative
for safari and business traveller alike, whether overnight
or long-term and the staff, Carrie and Grant, are on hand
with that personal touch.
