Set in the heart of the Sabi Sand Reserve, Singita Castleton is a private and intimate lodge featuring six individual cottages complemented by a swimming pool, wine cellar, gym, tennis court and spa. Living spaces extend outdoors onto broad verandas overlooking a watering hole where animals gather to drink. Reminiscent of an African farmhouse, richly detailed interiors in a neutral palette contrast with traditional tartans and classic prints creating an unbuttoned, lived-in appeal. In this idyllic lodge setting, gracious service from a staff that includes a private guide, tracker, chef, and housekeeper is finely tuned to the dictates and desires of each and every guest.
