Aberdare Country Club

Set on the scenic slopes of Mweiga Hill in the Aberdare Highlands, Aberdare Country Club is a charming luxury retreat located about two and a half hours northeast of Nairobi. Surrounded by beautiful gardens, rolling lawns, and breathtaking views of Mount Kenya, the Aberdare Mountains, and Solio Game Sanctuary, the property offers a peaceful countryside escape for travellers exploring Aberdare National Park. Originally the private homestead of an English couple who settled in Kenya, the property was once known as “The Steep.” Over time, it was transformed into Aberdare Country Club, while still preserving the warmth, character, and elegance of a traditional country home. Today, it is considered one of Kenya’s treasured heritage properties, offering guests a refined stay with the relaxed atmosphere of a countryside inn. The club’s spacious grounds, landscaped gardens, and quiet highland setting make it an ideal place to unwind before or after a safari adventure. Its location also makes it a convenient stop for travellers planning Kenya Tanzania Safari Adventures with Nature Romp Safaris, especially those combining Aberdare, Mount Kenya, Solio, and other iconic East African safari destinations. Accommodation Aberdare Country Club offers comfortable cottage-style accommodation with beautiful views across the surrounding highlands and wildlife areas. Each cottage is designed to provide privacy, relaxation, and a homely atmosphere after a day of safari activities.
