Set in a 20,000-acre reserve in the malaria-free Waterberg region is the rather extraordinary Leobo Private Reserve. The originality of its owner is apparent in the quirky detail of the property, as well as the limitless list of activities on offer: Choose from quad biking, riding, walking, fishing, game viewing, swimming and kayaking. Rented on an exclusive-use basis, the estate is fully staffed by friendly, obliging staff who will plan your day as you wish. Dining is a highlight, with a top chef organising surprise bush breakfasts and traditional braai's with excellent locally sourced ingredients, accompanied by top international and South African wines.
