The Wonky House: A Romantic Hidey-Hole
Drawing attention for its minimalism, tiny house ideology and country charm, the Wonky House is located 9 km from Timau center off A2 Nairobi-Nanyuki-Moyale Road. It sits in a secure and serene farming village with stunning sweeps of Mount Kenya. Unapparent at first glance but obvious on keen probe is its unconventional and whimsical design, featuring a slightly slanted floor, uneven porch, and a crafty wonky appearance that gives it a playful, almost surreal look in its bucolic setting.
Now a popular weekend getaway, it consists of 1 cozy bedroom, a living room, a fully equipped kitchenette with a microwave and a kettle, and 1 bathroom with a shower and a hair dryer. Guests, preferred by couples as a romantic getaway, can take in the views of the mountain from the patio, which also has outdoor furniture. A walk in the farm in a must! Amenities include; linen, towels and housekeeping service. In good weather, guests can take advantage of the outdoor barbecue pit.
Taking cognizance that Kenya is primarily agrarian, farm tours are a fantastic way to learn about the backbone of its economy, connect with nature, and gain insight into the operations of working farms. As diverse as they are unique, farm tours provide an experience and a deep connection to the land. It is great fun, too!
