Welcome to Meru Hills

A hideaway Farm Stay in the heart of a Kenyan rural village

Meru Hills is a family-run lifelong dream conceived from our desire to give back to the community our personal experiences accumulated during our travels around the world. Our aim is to bring our guests closer to nature and experience the beauty of the rural environment, with its rich culture, unique heritage and traditions. We also organize tailor made adventures for you to discover the many hidden gems of the area and its surroundings.

We have prepared a short video to give you a peep of the essential features of MeruHills.

The Farm & Estate

Meru Hills is located on the slopes of Nyambene Range at an altitude of 4,000 feet, at the foot of Mount Kenya overlooking the sacred Kuani. It is situated approximately 30 miles north of the equator on 10 acres of farm-land with a fully-grown orchard, herbal trees, medicinal plants, fruit & vegetable gardens, fish ponds, a big apiary of more than 20 beehives, dairy cattle, chicken, geese, turkey, goats and sheep.

The farm has over time developed a unique eco-system replete with rare birds and other small wild life that have come to find refuge.
