The Utengule Coffee Lodge is a great place to unwind, before or after a long road trip. The food is lovely, plenty of drinks choices, and the staff courteous and attentive. Breakfast on the lawn overlooking the Rift Valley is a must, together with a couple of giraffes! Rooms are basic but comfortable, and the beds perfect for a good night's rest. I have visited a few times, and feel the weight of the world disappearing when I arrive.
