Rituals & Restoration
Cedar sauna, wood-fired hot tub, massage by the pool, yoga in the garden, forest bathing, good book.
A wellness family, a wellness house
Wellness at Mukima is unhurried and unsupervised. A massage if you want one. Sauna in the late afternoon. Yoga in the pavilion. A long walk in the rewilded forest. A book in the library, with the fire on.
Cedar walls. Wood smoke. A hot soak.
A large cedar-walled sauna that seats twelve, an exceptional way to detox after safari. Follow it with our Swedish wood-fired hot tub, set among the lavender.
Pool open all day. Strong swimmers only when unsupervised, please, but a pool attendant is readily on hand with towels, drinks and anything you need.
Botanical oils, tender loving care
Our massage room is found by the pool, a place to truly unwind and restore. Surrender to botanical oils and capable hands for an hour or more.
Reflexology, manicures and pedicures are also available, by gentle hands.
Contrast Therapy
Book a contrast therapy session. You can book the two rooms that sit side by side for a private hour of contrast therapy moving from ice bath to sauna. Our wellness concierge will guide you through the therapy and it's benefits.
If you have any health conerns please seek medical advise from your doctor before starting the therapy.
Garden pavilion, doors flung open
The Woodland Waddle
Step into our 100-acre rewilded forest, a sanctuary we returned to nature in 2005 and have lovingly protected since. Indigenous canopy, a soft trail, 237 species of birds, and the friendly small mammals, bush buck, reed buck, hares, porcupines, hedgehogs.
Follow the charming Woodland Waddle signs for a complete loop, thoughtfully placed benches invite you to pause, rest, or meditate. The owner aptly describes this forest as “the gift that keeps on giving”.
