Originally built to house the horses of the previous owner of Ol Pejeta - Adnan Khashoggi, The Stables, formerly the Research Centre, has now been converted into budget accommodation. The Stables offer basic but comfortable accommodation facilities. With a full board nightly, that includes breakfast, lunch (Kenyan style) and dinner, as well as teas and coffees throughout the day. We offer great value for money. We supply boiled water for drinking and there is a fridge available to residents for their own drinks. Kindly note that we have different rooms available ranging from single room, double rooms and twin rooms. The single rooms have shared bathrooms and toilets outside the room while the twin room and the double rooms have bathroom and toilets en-suite
