Outspan Golf And Country Club Hotel
Outspan Golf And Country Club Hotel A country hotel on the fringes of the Aberdare National Park. 
To 'outspan' means to unyoke one's weary oxen at the end of a day's journey. Just 160 kms on a good road from Nairobi and 2 kms from Nyeri town center, the Outspan offer guests a range of accommodations - twin rooms, garden suites, or cottages. Since the hotel's inception in 1927, the atmosphere has changed little. 
p>The 30 acre setting and two purpose-built conference rooms lend themselves to creative meetings and training sessions with numerous tempting leisure activities for when 'school's out'. There is tennis, squash, billiards, badmington, and adjacent to the hotel, a 9-hole golf course.For the less sports-minded, there is a daily display of traditional Kikuyu dancing, another 16 acres for nature walks along the Chania River, escorted bird walks, excursions to nearby tea and coffee farms and of course, morning and afternoon game drives in the Abedares Salient where Treetops is sited and where only specially licensed 4 wheel drive vehicles are permitted to enter. I 'll challenge anyone to say they're bored at this magnificent hotel! The gardens are a riot of sculptured colour and the rooms, many with their own log fires, have been recently redecorated to retain the charm and comfort of an historical and well-established hotel. And many of the guarded recipes go back a year or two. Supplied with abundant dairy and fresh produce from nearby farms, the chefs lovingly create dishes Each guest room has a private entrance thus affording guests privacy without compromising hospitality. TV and tea/coffee making facilities biscuits, fruit and sherry are offered in all guest rooms. Breakfasts selected from the menu are served room-service style at the table and chairs in each bedroom at a time of the guest’s choice, between 7 and 9.30a.m. Evening meals are not offered. Every afternoon a traditional Kikuyu dancing display is given in a purpose built arena. A small Kikuyu homestead has been erected in the enclosure and a narration is given on the dances and traditions of the Kikuyu home.
