Overview
Four weekends make the year, and this one closes it. Naivasha's lake and its sun-warmed vineyards set the scene: a table at the water's edge for freshwater fish still smelling of the lake, and a long lunch among the vines with Rift Valley wines poured alongside.
It's the most convivial weekend we run, made for toasting the year with the friends you've made at our tables and meeting the ones you haven't yet. Timed for December, when the lake is full and the evenings are long.

Down to the Lake
