Cottar's 1920s Safari Camp

The camp has two main communal areas under canvas where guests gather to relax, read and dine in fine 1920s style. For an after-safari treat, book a massage in the spa area or take a dip in the pool. Later, listen to the baboons barking and whispering night sounds while you stretch out at the firepit with your nightcap.

The camp has 15 cream canvas tents in total (three lovely honeymoon tents, five double tents and seven family suites), all redolent of the 1920s with romantic mosquito-netted beds, en-suite bathrooms and, for your comfort, other mod cons. The family tents have living rooms with fireplaces. All the tents are private and quiet, suiting everyone from honeymooners to families with young children. Nearby, private Cottar’s Bush Villa has its own long swimming pool.

The Masai Mara has the largest concentration of terrestrial wildlife on the planet, so there's plenty to see and photograph. Take guided day and night game drives, see the smaller species and birds on a walking safari, or rest with a gin and tonic on the veranda and take in the view that stretches to the distant horizons of the Mara and Serengeti plains. Visit a Masai community – these interactions are welcomed and are conducted respectfully, in case you're hesitant.
