Robby en Manja first met at Kimaro. Robby is a photographer and is travelling annually to Africa to work on a photographic art project, in which he is capturing the African animal world in a unique and authentic manner. He has been living permanently at Kimaro Farmhouse since 2011. By setting up this property in France, he has been able to mix his passions of the great outdoors and Africa into a wonderful cocktail. You’ll notice this in the holiday cottage décor, which is dotted with African accents.
The holiday cottage bears the name Twiga House. This name comes from the Kiswahili, the language most spoken in East-Africa and which means “giraffe”. Kimaro is a word, which was inspired by the Kiswahili language.
His dream has come true – setting up this Burgundian farmhouse, a heavenly place where you’ll find rest and space and where he can fully enjoy the beauty of the Burgundian landscape with Manja.
Kimaro Farmhouse stands for quality, small scale and authenticity. There are only 5 luxury safari tents on the estate, which are spaced far apart to give all guests maximum privacy.
