   The Fairmont Aberdare Country Club nestles on the slopes of Mweiga Hill, just two-hour's drive from Nairobi on a good paved road. All rooms and cottages are comfortable with private bathroom facilities and have spectacular views of the plains below, the Aberdare Mountains to the west and Mount Kenya to the east. The club serves as a gateway to the popular 'tree lodge, The Fairmont Ark, which is situated within the Salient of the Aberdare Mountains. Visitors usually stop over for lunch at the Club before they are transferred to the Ark. However, the Club is a delightful place to spend a night pre- or post-Ark. Besides its excellent reputation for generous hospitality and fine international cuisine, the Club also offers a 9-hole golf course, where you will mingle with the resident antelope and baboon population, a 1,300 acre wildlife sanctuary, trout fishing and a gorgeous garden, swimming pool, horseback riding and tennis court for relaxation. The Club is also an excellent venue for conferences and special events. There are 28 twins and 20 double-bedded rooms, 38 of which are in cottages. A total of 107 guests can be catered for. The bedrooms are tastefully furnished and all have private bathrooms with showers and telephones. The cottages have two bedrooms, each with interconnecting doors, and most have fireplaces. Two of the double-bedded rooms are now in the "Honeysuckle Cottage". A balcony provides superb views of either Mount Kenya or a pretty woodland where bushbuck often come to graze. |
