Olerai House was the home of Oria and Iain Douglas-Hamilton, where they wrote their ground-breaking book -Among the Elephant and was opened to guests to fund their campaign to save the elephant. The quality of the hospitality and the wonderful meals reflect Oria’s Italian heritage. The five en suite rooms are furnished with flair and generously equipped. Walks to the lake or in the hills, birding and gondola trips are among the many activities.
