Imagine an exclusive private home in a neighbourhood far removed from your own. Instead, you're in a vast, vast wilderness, and your neighbours are wild – elephant, giraffe, zebra and rhino, and 300-odd bird species. Imagine riding on horseback through hills and savannas. Then make it real. Lengishu is a family-owned estate set in the 13,000-hectare Borana Conservancy in northern Kenya. It sleeps up to 12 in great comfort, attended to by a dedicated staff of chefs, housekeepers, and a private guide. Borana's boundary with neighbouring Lewa Downs Conservancy is unfenced, so there's plenty of scope to realise your dreams.

Rooms are organised in four separate cottages. The Master Suite sleeps two in a spacious bedroom with a king-sized bed and a luxurious en-suite bathroom. Room One, just off the main house, is made cosy by its wood-burning fireplace, wooden ceiling and floors; it also highlights the views with wide-swinging French doors and a private patio. Two further family cottages each accommodate four guests in either twin or double bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, and private dining and sitting areas.
