Offbeat Meru Camp
Meru National Park, Kenya
Why we love it
Offbeat Meru Camp is a 12 bed traditional semi-permanent camp situated just outside Meru National Park in the Bisanadi National Reserve, set above the pretty Bisanadi River with a beautiful riverine forest.
The camp itself comprises of six tents, one family tent (a double and interconnecting triple) as well as five double/twin tents (an extra bed can be added to make a triple). Each tent is furnished with a huge iron bed, mosquito net and has its own en-suite shower room, with traditional hot safari shower and flushing loo. In addition, there is 24-hour solar lighting in the tents, whilst the rest of the camp is lit by traditional tilly lamps.
Informal dining is hosted in the mess tent or usually outside under a canopy of stars. The camp also has a stunning infinity pool overlooking the river below. There is also a spacious living room with comfortable sofas, a writing table and a fully stocked bar.
Days are tailored to suit the guests’ requirements. This area of Kenya gets quite hot during the dry season. After an active morning in the bush there’s no better feeling than coming back to camp and cooling off in the stunning infinity swimming pool watching the wildlife as it comes to drink from the Bisanadi River below you.

I went on an adventure of a lifetime to Kenya, planned by True Travel. Borana was the perfect introduction to Africa – the staff were fantastic, the lodge very comfortable and I had amazing wildlife sightings. Then the helicopter flight and night out with Andrew (the real Crocodile Dundee) was an experience of a lifetime; we went scorpion hunting, crocodile catching, swimming in lakes and flew over flamingos. All in all, everything was fantastically planned and the service was brilliant. I’m looking forward to the next adventure!
