Description

Besotted Farmstay was birthed out of a desire to reconnect with nature and to get back to a simpler way of life in a countryside setting.

Born and bred in Nyeri, Mumbi, the proprietor, had long wished to return to home and hearth and to live and commune with nature in her ancestral home on the foothills of Mount Kenya. She began a relentless search for the perfect, pristine, and peaceful location that would nurture soul, body, mind and spirit.

It was during this search that shefound and fell in love with this delightful spot. Here the panoramic views of the mountain are stunning. They appeared to be calling to her to come and have rest with them. The rolling wheat farms and the adjacent forest echoed the call.

Without a moment's hesitation, she scratched together a deposit for the five-acre farm and is forever grateful to the original owner whose unending patience with her, given her very limited wallet, enabled her to eventually buy her dream farm.

She set about converting the previous wheat farm into her vision of a rustic but not rough farmstay. A place where visitors could feel at home in an organic farm setting, amidst nature, but with all the trappings of modernity.

The calm environment helps visitors to slow down and take in the beauty of Mount Kenya, its lush forest, and the Aberdare ranges. In the fields, cows, goats, and sheep graze. Birds chirp in trees, flowers bloom, and gardens flourish. The vegetables are fresh. All this in the midst of a most friendly and warm community.

And visitors can give back to nature by helping farmers in the community. They can plant trees, flowers and produce, till the soil, and herd goats and sheep. They can also source their food from the farm or community, walk in the forest and caves, take a hike to the mountain, fish, and take part in other activities in the area.

Welcome to Besotted Farmstay.
