Step Back in Time To an Age of Grandeur

Crossing the Rift Valley and climbing the steppe onto the green and rolling hills south of the Ngorongoro Crater, there lies a truly undeniable surprise and one that will be a home-away-from-home.

The Manor at Ngorongoro, with its 20 luxurious cottages and magnificent Main House, is one of the first safari lodges of its kind to blend East African hospitality with old-world Afro-European architecture and decor.

Located adjacent to the famous Ngorongoro conservation area and within the 1500-acre arabica coffee estate, The Manor is reminiscent of an elegant up-country farm home in the Cape Dutch-style of architecture.

After 2 weeks in Africa, it was the BEST stay we could have asked for. The lodge is appointed beautifully. I felt like I was in a novel about safari.

Every detail of The Manor has been crafted with its guests’ comfort in mind. Each of the cottages has been carefully positioned to maximise the views of the adjacent verdant hills but, at the same time, to maintain the intimacy and privacy of this old-world manor home.

The Manor at Ngorongoro provides the perfect place to relax and take in the outstanding natural beauty of its gardens and the adjacent coffee-bush laden hills. However the drama that is Africa is but a short distance away. For Ngorongoro Crater is famed as being the ‘Eighth Wonder of the World’, and is a ‘must see’ on anyone’s itinerary.

This extinct volcano - with its 18-kilometre wide crater floor - is home to an abundant and unique ecosystem that encompasses all of the wildlife that you would wish to see in Africa. This spectacular setting is an ‘once-in-a- lifetime’ opportunity to experience the rawness and beauty of Africa’s natural flora and fauna.

And what better way to enjoy the Crater than in the knowledge that at the end of the day you will return to enjoy an incomparable dinner in The Manor’s fine dining restaurant followed by a deeply restful night in a cottage that has been designed both with finesse and comfort in mind.

True elegance and grandeur - The Manor at Ngorongoro awaits.
