Ngong Hills Trail Cottages is a quiet, green hideaway on the slopes of Ngong Hills near Kiserian. Set on a small farmstead with trees, flowering hedges, and open lawns, the property blends simple country comfort with practical amenities for short stays, work-from-anywhere weeks, or small gatherings.
The cottages opens onto a private veranda facing the gardens. Inside you’ll find a clean, light-filled living area, a well-equipped kitchenette for basic cooking, and comfortable sleeping space with quality linens. Reliable Wi-Fi, hot showers, and ample power sockets support both rest and remote work. Parking is on-site and secure.
Outdoors is the highlight. Guests use the shaded gazebo, BBQ pit, and fire area for slow grills and evening conversations. We keep sheep and free-range chickens on the far side of the property; you may hear farm sounds in the morning. Paths around the compound are ideal for short walks, birdwatching, and sunrise or sunset views of the hills when the weather is clear.
Location is convenient yet peaceful. Kiserian town, petrol stations, fresh produce markets, and basic shops are a short drive away. Popular viewpoints and hiking trails in Ngong Hills are within easy reach. Day trips to Nairobi are possible depending on traffic.
Guest access: Private cottage, veranda, shared gardens, gazebo, BBQ and fire area. Secure parking inside the gate.

Frequently asked questions for this offer
What happens after I make a reservation?
Once you send a reservation request, the landlord is notified that you are interested in their offer. From that moment, they have 24 hours to approve or reject your reservation.
Landlords are mainly interested in the profile of their tenant. Do not forget to fill in all necessary information, add your profile picture, or even make a short video about yourself. Doing that will make you more attractive for the owner and your reservation will more likely get approved.
What is the standard furnishing of flats?
All the apartments on offer on Flatio must meet certain standards. We require fully furnished and equipped ones, dishes, cutlery and internet connection included.
What is a medium-term rent?
The duration of a medium-term rent is usually 1 to 12 months. Most of the landlords offer long-term rents or rents for just a few days, therefore getting a medium-term rent without Flatio is not that easy.
Can I go through the contract before I make a reservation of the housing?
You can take a look at the contract in advance and online with every offer. After you sign it, you will find it in the application My Housing.
While arranging a contract on Flatio, you do not have to worry that it could be disadvantageous for you. Our contracts are made so that we avoid all problems! All of them are the same, used by all the landlords on Flatio.
Can I see my chosen accommodation in person before I sign the lease agreement?
Your time is precious. That's why we've added a virtual tour option to our platform so you can see some of the rentals listed on Flatio from the comfort of your own home.
If a virtual tour isn't available for the accommodation you've chosen, you can contact the landlord and ask them if they're willing to give you a personal tour of the rental unit.
If you move in and find that the rented accommodation doesn't match the information on Flatio at the time the reservation request was sent to the landlord, you can withdraw from the lease agreement under certain circumstances explained in this article in our help center.
Also, under our "secure move-in" policy, we'll assist you with moving to an alternative accommodation if you report within a certain period of time that the rental unit doesn't match the ad and the landlord doesn't fix the problem immediately. You can read the details in our help center.
How can I pay?
On Flatio, you have a variety of payment methods to choose from. You can use your card, payment gateway or bank transfer. Just pick the one which suits you the most.
How can I cancel my reservation?
How you can cancel a reservation varies depending on what stage the reservation is in.
Is your reservation request still waiting for landlord approval? Then you can simply cancel it directly from your My Housing web app!
However, suppose the owner has already approved your reservation request, and you are no longer interested in it. In that case, you can still cancel the reservation before you sign the lease agreement. Just consider that you should do this only in essential cases. Because when the landlord accepts your reservation, their property is stopped being advertised, and they can lose the chance to rent their property to someone else.
Do you have an approved reservation and also a valid agreement? In order to cancel your reservation, contact Flatio customer support well in advance of your contract beginning (the specific time and amount of refund depends on the type of cancelation policy).
