White Thorn Cottages (Koko Cottages).

Hey guys, it has been a minute (well more than a minute) but I am back. For starters, my apologies for not being consistent, between life and trying to work, it gets overwhelming. So I turned a quarter-century old this month. What have I learned so far, quarter-life crisis is real but it gets better. A day at a time, a goal at a time and we will get to where we want or envision ourselves. 

So, I had my birthday weekend getaway at White Thorn Cottages at Lake Elementaita. I came across the cottages when we once drove into the wrong compound (we were heading to Tuliza Cottages). The cottages are self-catering. One can hold 6 people, another 4 people and the third one can hold 2 people. We were 10 friends so we took the one for 6 people and for 4 people. I am in love with the out of town vibe that the cottages give. Not only do you get a fully functioning kitchen, a bath in all the cottages and a T.V (which I don’t think anyone uses or at least I hope nobody uses) but the patio is also an amazing place where you can just chill with your friends. The place also has a common bonfire area with swinging seats. We probably spent half the night there listening to music and catching up.

The cottages are a distance from the lake, not so near but also not so far, making it an interesting walk there. The best thing about Lake Elementatita is that you can actually have a picnic there and no one will ask you. Plus if you are daring enough you can cross to the other side of the lake, it is not deep (I tried getting near the flamingos but the nearer I got further they moved lol). White thorn cottages are perfect for both friends and couple getaways, away from the hustle and bustle of Nairobi. If you are a dog lover you will love the place coz there are several dogs.
