Singita Castleton is tucked away in the privately owned Singita Sabi Sand reserve within the Sabi Sand Nature Reserve, adjacent to Kruger National Park. Spanning more than 45,000 acres, Singita Sabi Sand is renowned for its high concentration of wildlife and birds– with thrilling leopard sightings a highlight of games drives.
Designed as an exclusive-use lodge for up to 12 guests, the stone-walled homestead and 6 double ensuite cottages offer a private safari homestead for families and friends, complete with private staff including a field guide, chef, and host.
Imbued with nostalgic references, Castleton combines the most refined elements of a private safari lodge with the rustic charm of a country farmhouse. The lodge captures the spirit and history of the original camp, with understated interiors featuring refashioned antiques and furnishings that blend tartans and faded botanical-print fabrics with leather and wood. Expansive living spaces extend outdoors onto deep, furnished verandas overlooking tree-shaded lawns, a large pool, and an often-frequented watering hole.
Located a short distance from the main house, guests bed down in 6 double ensuite cottages, 2 of which have interleading doors – making them perfect for families with young children. Guests can enjoy, an extensive wine cellar and country-style kitchen to Bocce and tennis courts. You’ll also find state-of-the-art wellness facilities, such as a fitness centre, yoga pavilion, and double and single massage treatment rooms.
An outdoor boma with uninterrupted views of the surrounding landscape allows for magical fireside dinners under the stars – you’ll be warmed by the crackling fire as you recount the day’s adventures and sightings, gaze up at the stars and tuck into traditional local dishes.
Go on thrilling daily game drives with your private guide and tracker at your leisure, with the afternoon drive concluding in a spot-lit evening return to reveal the area’s nocturnal wildlife. Guided safari walks are available for guests 16 and older, while conservation activities include the option to prebook a visit to the anti-poaching canine unit to meet with one of the senior dog handlers and observe the highly trained dogs. Back at the lodge, the kitchen is the heart of the home, and guests are invited to participate in informal cooking or baking sessions and share meals at a large table in the heart of the home, or on the covered veranda.
