Larger than Leeu House it exudes the enthusiasm and pride of discerning Leeu Collection owner, Analjit Singh, who fell in love with Franschhoek and set about creating the ultimate uber-chic retreat by joining together three farms. Local wine tasting excursions are a highlight for many guests, as are the gourmet culinary presentations with their well-considered wine pairings.

Take a table in the Dining Room beside the roaring fire, or take advantage of sunny days by dining on the Garden Terrace among the colourful blooms. As for recreations, try a yoga workout, go for a jog along one of the many pretty nature trails or simply be pampered in the serene Leeu Spa where expert therapists offer massages and holistic treatments based on wild-harvested organic ingredients. Unwind in the plunge pool by the lily pond or take a dip in the infinity swimming pool.
