Nanyuki Cottage Hospital is a nonprofit hospital in Nanyuki, Laikipia County, Kenya.[1] The hospital has 50 inpatient beds[1] and includes an operating theatre, laboratory, X-ray department and pharmacy.[2]

The hospital also offers outpatient services such as antiretroviral therapy, family planning, HIV counselling and testing, and immunisation.[1]

The hospital is a private charity and is managed by a committee of volunteers elected by members, who then elect the officers. It is supported by grants and donations, as well as fees paid by those patients who can afford it.[3]

Every year the hospital is one of the beneficiaries for funds raised by the Lewa Marathon.[4]
