OVERVIEW
“Old-fashioned charm that’s rare in the modern world of glamping and mega-lodges.” – The Wall Street Journal
Designed in a luxury ranch style, Ol Malo was built by hand using local materials. Its spacious rooms mix safari chic with the flair of local Samburu beading. Additionally, Ol Malo Nomad, its lightweight mobile camp, offers private groups a chance to explore the wild on foot, by horseback, by camel, or in a helicopter. Stays at Ol Malo Treehouse and the property’s devoted Leopard Hide are also available as complimentary overnight activities for guests.
One of northern Kenya’s original bush homes, Ol Malo lies in the heart of Samburuland. As neighbours, they and the indigenous Samburu tribe have spent decades working hand-in-hand to benefit the people, wildlife, and land. Indeed, Julia Francombe – founder of the Samburu Trust and daughter of Ol Malo’s founders – spends most of her time living in the bush with a team of warriors in order to best understand the Samburu people’s needs, and thus to implement projects that make a real difference.
“Deeply rooted in Kenya, we stand by the people and wildlife of this land and are invested in their future. We support The Samburu Trust by providing physical spaces (such as two schools and a beading workshop). We also give our time and expertise for free for assistance on wildlife conflict, medical care, and building water reservoir systems to support the entire ecosystem” – the Francombe family.
Founded in 2000, the Samburu Trust aims to protect and secure the future of the Samburu people and their land through education, conservation, healthcare, water supply, women’s-opportunity, and ecotourism initiatives. It:

OVERVIEW
“Within Kenya, Cottar’s and their 1920’s Camp keep a very low profile, but globally this small, family-run, purpose-driven company punches way above its weight.” – Travel + Leisure
Representing vintage safari luxury at its best, the award-winning Cottar’s 1920s Camp boasts its own 7,608-acre private conservancy and is situated just one kilometre from one of Earth’s natural wonders: the Masai Mara National Reserve and, across the border in Tanzania, contiguous Serengeti region. Run by the continent’s first and longest-running safari family owners, it embodies the original, romantic spirit of adventurous African travel.
Having been providing safaris for more than 100 years, the Cottar family focuses on providing authentic, individualised safari experiences and continuing a legacy founded on wilderness, wildlife, comfort and security, as well as honouring a balance between conservation, prosperous commerce, community and culture.
Our 1920s Camp provides the romance of safari under cream-coloured canvas tents – the bygone style of safaris’ golden age while, at the same time, supplying amenities required by modern-day travellers and professional guides whose qualifications rank among the highest in Africa.
