The Manor at Ngorongoro
Found just outside the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and situated on one of the oldest coffee plantations in East Africa, The Manor at Ngorongoro is reminiscent of an elegant, up country farm home in the Cape Dutch style of architecture. It's a luxurious safari base, with a spa, swimming pool and stable of horses to explore the surrounding coffee plantations and countryside.
One of the most lavish properties on the safari circuit; the rooms at The Manor at Ngorongoro are cottage suites within the manicured gardens, and each suite has a sitting room, fireplace and enormous bathroom. There is nothing like returning from a day out on safari to a hot bubbly soak in your Victorian bathtub. Dining is an elegant affair with sumptuous cuisine. Where you choose to dine is up to you, with a choice of enjoying meals at your cottage or in the dining room.
