The camp is set in a 7,000-acre private conservancy only a little over half a mile from the Masai Mara Game Reserve. It also borders the world-famous Serengeti as well as the Loliondo reserves guaranteeing an abundance of game animal sightings. Many animals live in the region including lions, leopards, buffalo, elephants, colobus monkeys, cheetah, and gazelle. Though of course everyone comes to the Serengeti and Maasai Mara for the famous Great Migration when close to two million wildebeest, zebra and other antelope gather up their young and start the long trek north to the Serengeti. The Cottar family have been running luxury camps since 1919 and have been a part of the Maasai Mara community for over nine decades.

There are plenty of activities available. Morning and afternoon game drives explore the private conservancy and Maasai Mara. Night game drives follow the nocturnal animals. Guided bush walks take in the finer details with an intimate look at the bush and its wildlife. Cultural visits take in the local Maasai villages. Fishing and swimming is available in the river.

The camp spreads out over half a mile and has two main mess tent areas for fine dining, drinking, reading, and relaxing. An exciting new addition is an amazing pool and spa area where guests can relax after a game drive. The camp is gold eco-rated for eco-tourism and supports many community and conservation programs.
