自我介绍

John and I both grew up in Kenya and we live permanently on the property which my parents bought in the 1960s. We love to meet our guests and welcome them for a sundowner and a chat and are also available at any time to give advice or help. Things have changed enormously since my parents’ first arrived, when lions and leopard hunted the bushpigs in the forest and the coast line was empty for mile upon mile, but we try to retain a bit of the old ethos of low impact living. We prefer the Indian Ocean to spa treatments and believe in the power of our tropical environment to naturally send the body into into a state of total relaxation. The gentle kiss of the waves on the shore and the orchestra of cicadas in the trees is all music we need. Good food is very important to us and we make sure that our chefs are excellent and that food is fresh. With seafood delivered to the door by local fishermen and an abundance of tropical fruit we are very spoilt. Because we live in such a beautiful and tranquil place we like to holiday in busy cities - Istanbul, Delhi and London. John is a sports and motor racing enthusiast who used to rally cars. Hilary loves snorkelling, Swahili history, and culture and design.
