Guest reviews
"Absolute luxury, beautiful bedrooms, incredible food, wonderful company. This is the most beautiful house and I couldn’t fault it. We stayed for two nights and had a wonderful ride, swam in the most beautiful pool, wandered an incredible garden and ate like Kings and Queens. Cindy was the most marvellous host who knew all the answers to all our eager questions! I would recommend Deloraine without any hesitation."
"An amazing stay as always – thank you Cindy and Megan for going beyond the call of duty. Our children have run wild and probably traumatised your chickens for ever! We have eaten like kings, slept like princesses and giggled like teenagers. We loved everything especially the riding and swimming in the dam. We can’t wait to come back!"
"Wow, what can I say, nothing prepared us for the stunning Deloraine House! We just wish we had spent much longer there. Just taking in the ambiance of such a historical place with the beautiful mature gardens and lovely swimming pool really allowed us to wind down. The staff were exceptional and the food that kept being produced would rival any London restaurant! Visiting Lake Nakuru National Park was a highlight and the flamingos were unforgettable… then again riding up the mountain and trying our hand at polo were also pretty unforgettable…we will be back!"
