    Jeniffer was an incredible host. She communicated with us well & was incredibky friendly and accommodating. The house was neat and tidy with everything we needed and security was great. We were offered a cook for the duration of our stay, but this...

Welcome to Rachel’s Garden, a warm, retro-chic 3-bedroom retreat in Makutano, Meru. Designed to feel like a true home-away-from-home, it’s the perfect base for families, groups, and reunions looking for space, comfort, and a touch of nostalgia. The house features a master ensuite, two additional cozy bedrooms, a spacious living area, a fully equipped kitchen (with 6-burner cooker, fridge, microwave, cutlery, and dining setup), and a comfortable verandah ideal for tea chats or evening stories. Complimentary WiFi and ample parking make your stay even more convenient. Step outside into the large private compound: kids (and adults alike) will love the trampoline and fresh-air play space, while garden seating invites slow mornings and late-afternoon sundowners. For those who’d rather not cook, our chef-on-request service brings homestyle meals and plated dining right to the table. A unique advantage for families and groups is our event-ready setup: the compound has space for gazebos and small catered gatherings, supported by a dedicated outdoor ablution block. This means guests booking the house won’t be disturbed during events, and event-only visitors have their own convenience facilities. It’s the ideal setup for intimate garden parties, brunches, or small celebrations. Proximity & local access: Rachel’s Garden is just minutes from Meru town centre for shops, services, and cultural walks. It’s also a great base for day trips — to the Mount Kenya foothills, the spectacular Ngare Ndare Forest, or Meru National Park. We’re happy to recommend guides and transfers so you can explore with ease. What makes Rachel’s Garden special: - 3-bed vintage-charm home (sleeps up to 6 comfortably) - Private compound with trampoline, secure parking, and outdoor seating - Chef-for-hire service with local and international menus - Gazebo & event packages supported by a separate outdoor ablution block - Close to Meru town centre + day-trip ready for Mount Kenya, Ngare Ndare, Meru NP
Karibu! I’m Jeniffer, your host in Makutano, Meru. I’m passionate about culture, food, and nature — and I created Rachel’s Garden as a place where all three come together. Whether it’s enjoying a chef-prepared meal made with organic ingredients, relaxing in the garden, or exploring the foothills of Mount Kenya, I love helping guests experience the best of Meru. Outside hosting, I enjoy gardening, dancing to Rhumba, and creating designs in clothes and jewelry. Every guest brings a new story — and I can’t wait to be part of yours.
