    Mike, the caretaker was ready and waiting for us on arrival and even helped us get to the property as we were unsure that we had followed the directions given to us. Great views of the mountain (when the fog clears). Cozy with all the amenities...

The Wonky House is located 9 kilometres off the main road from Timau town in a secure and serene farming village overlooking Mt. Kenya. In front of the house is a small area perfect for camping. Timau is in close proximity to various wildlife conservancies and national parks such as Ol Pajeta, Lewa, Borana, Samburu National Park and Solio Ranch. The Wonky House has a great vegetable patch for guests to enjoy fresh produce during your stay. It is a great place to escape from city life! It gets quite cold at night, don't forget your cosy pyjamas.
We have a care taker on the property who is able to attend to guests at any hour.
