Experience timeless safari tradition in secluded luxury, within one of Africa's most prolific wildlife regions. This intimate villa is perched on a hillside in Cottar's Private Conservancy, within the Masai Mara region but just outside of the Masai Mara National Park itself. An indulgent and romantic homestead linked to Cottar's 1920's Camp, Cottar's Bush Villa is utterly exclusive. It comes with a discreet and professional staff, including a butler, private chef and guide. The ecosystem is hugely fertile, with abundant game (keep an eye out for the Big Five) and stunning landscapes to be explored by vehicle or on foot.



The expansive villa (over 10,000 square feet) has five bedrooms, sleeping a total of ten guests. Each room is designed differently, but one thing you're guaranteed is a spectacular view over the tree canopy to the savanna beyond. Rooms are en-suite, with spacious showers and bathtubs that also allow a good 'soaking up' of the view. All have seating areas, a large deck, high ceilings and loads of light. Essentially, you've got your own private retreat within a private retreat.
