Tucked away deep in the Waterberg Mountains is a private retreat to be found known as Jobedi Game Reserve. A purposely well kept secret set in a vast landscape of rocky terrain blessed with lush vegetation and scenic vistas of breathtaking beauty which lends itself to an abundance of peace and tranquility.

Allow the sense of well being overwhelm you whilst indulging in the comfort of a cosy campfire, accompanied by the serenade of a Jackal howling in the distance and the song of a Nightjar close by.

Jobedi is situated outside of Vaalwater, Limpopo and a mere two and half hours drive from Johannesburg International Airport.

There are about 280 different trees, shrub and grass species, as well as moss and ferns. More than 260 species of birds have been identified, ranging from fish eagles to water birds and more than 28 species of game .

The self catering accommodation is fully equipped with linen, crockery, gas cooker and private boma areas. Jobedi offer 2,4,6,8 and 10 sleeper self catering accommodation.

Enjoy an unforgettable experience with our well experienced guides out in the African Bushveld searching for the mysterious Leopard and hear all the stories as only one can imagine.

This is for people who want to be away from home away from civilisation. The houses are big enough for family, more especially for camping. We had two houses and the use gas and on of the rooms geyser was not working as a result we end up showering in one room.

Wow! Amazing place, everything you need to relax. Just arrive with your clothes and your food. Beautiful secluded accommodation and wonderful hosts. The dams are beautiful and the reserve has interesting sites. PS My wallet fell behind a cupboard and was returned to me intact by the onsite cleaning staff. Awesome!

Thank you for an awesome break away. Nothing better than being surrounded by nature to get ones mind off things. Great hospitality and will definitely come to do the hiking route some time.

We had a very enjoyable, relaxing weekend at Jobede Game Reserve, however we must admit that for the size of the game reserve there is really not a lot of game on the farm? Do not know the reason but still had a good time. Will definitely be back for a getaway weekend in the future.

This quaint cockeyed thatched house is situated near one of the riverstreams leading to our beautiful swimming hole. It has three bedrooms, bathroom with bath, fully equipped kitchen and a screened verandah. Cook around the fire while enjoying the outdoors. This unit is ideal for little ones as they cannot get off the verandah if screen door latched and is equally enjoyable for Granny and Grandpa to sit and relax watching the animals, while the family exert themselves around the reserve.
