Reteti House Matthews Mountain Range

Reteti House is a private holiday home in the northern frontier of Kenya in Namunyak Wildlife Conservancy, an area of 850,000 acres of pristine wilderness surrounding the Mathews Range of mountains. The savannah plains and lush mountain slopes are home to elephants, leopards, reticulated giraffes, wild dogs, and kudu in ever-increasing numbers.

Designed exclusively for private use, the uniquely crafted Reteti House offers expansive views over the Matthews Range, intimate Reteti elephant encounters, and immersive cultural experiences.

The lush Mathews mountain range stands between Laikipia and Kenya’s northern frontier. This remote and dramatic landscape is also home to the local Samburu people whose age-old traditions, including the famed ‘singing wells’, are as much a part of the fabric of this land as the wildlife.
