Elsa's Kopje, Kenya

This unique lodge is nestled into the rock of a hill in Meru National Park – one of the less crowded parks in the heart of Kenya. It’s not just about the dramatic landscape, jaw dropping views and incredible wildlife, but what makes Elsa’s so special is its heart warming story; we go back to the 1960s when Joy and George Adamson wrote a wonderful book about their lioness Elsa which then was made into the movie Born Free.

Guests will be able to enjoy the seclusion of Meru National Park and its authentic African landscape. Expect to spot large herds of elephants, hippos, lions and incredible birdlife. The park is home to the Big 5 and the rhino sanctuary, making your wildlife experience will be simply unforgettable.
