Singita Castleton seamlessly blends the elegance of a private safari lodge with the cozy charm of a country farmhouse. The interiors are adorned with antique pieces and refurbished furnishings that enhance the authentic atmosphere, which flows out to expansive, covered verandas overlooking serene lawns, a waterhole often visited by wildlife, and a large swimming pool.
The picturesque stone-walled homestead, along with six double en-suite cottages, is ideal for families and groups of friends, comfortably accommodating up to 12 guests. Singita Castleton offers exclusive amenities, including a Bocce court, a well-stocked wine cellar, a country-style kitchen, and a tennis court. For relaxation and wellness, guests can enjoy a fitness center, a yoga pavilion, and dedicated massage rooms. Outdoor dinners around the firepit, with uninterrupted views of the landscape, create unforgettable starlit evenings.
The six guest cottages are separate from the main house. Two of these cottages are connected, making them perfect for families with children.
Game Drives
Guests at Castleton have access to a private field guide, tracker, and Land Rover for the entirety of their stay. The daily game drives offer a close encounter with Africa’s remarkable wildlife, while the late afternoon outings reveal the mystique of the nocturnal world. These drives are conducted in state-of-the-art Land Rovers, with each vehicle accommodating up to six guests. During your time at Singita Sabi Sand, you may encounter a wide variety of animals, including leopards, lions, rhinos, large buffalo herds, elephants, reedbucks, hyenas, hippos, nyalas, cheetahs, wild dogs, and numerous bird species.
Guided Safari Walks
Walking safaris offer an intimate way to experience the wilderness. Led by an expert guide and tracker, you’ll explore the bush on foot, observing the flora, fauna, and landscapes up close.
Stargazing
Gazing at a sky filled with stars is a truly awe-inspiring experience. With minimal light pollution, your view of the night sky will be crystal clear, allowing for a breathtaking connection with the vast African heavens.
Fitness Centre
The private fitness center at Singita Castleton provides a perfect spot to maintain your workout routine while on vacation. With views of the surrounding bush, you can keep an eye on the wildlife as you exercise on modern equipment.
Swimming
The large pool on the front lawn offers a full day of leisure. With pool toys and comfortable loungers on the deck, guests can relax or play while enjoying an unobstructed view of the waterhole and the wildlife that frequents it.
Cooking
The country-style kitchen is the heart of the homestead, inviting guests to visit at any time. You can join the chef for an informal cooking lesson or simply watch as meals are prepared.
Wellness
The African wilderness provides the perfect setting for relaxation and rejuvenation. Singita offers tailored treatments that draw on the continent’s healing traditions and use essential oils to refresh and revive. Every massage or therapy can be customized to your preferences, ensuring a personalized and restorative experience.

Outstanding Experience! (Cape Town, Sabi Sands, Vic Falls)
After attempting to book this trip myself (a couple coming from the US), I gave up and reached out to Sara from Safari.com. I told Sara what I was thinking and by the next day she had created several wonderful itineraries! Based on her suggestions, we personalized the itineraries and within 7 days I was booked and all set!! Sara was available at all times (before, during, and after the trip). We are currently heading home and we are so happy with all the bookings Sara created for us! Everything went flawlessly. Her 3rd parties for tours and transfers were perfect (always early, professional, knowledgeable, and kind). The hotel acknowledged our anniversary thanks to Sara. We stayed at the Victoria & Alfred hotel in Cape Town, then off to Dulini Moya in Sabi Sands, and finally Victoria Falls Island Treehouse in Zimbabwe. I highly recommend all of them. Tell Sara what you envision your experience to be and your budget and she will make it happen!! Her knowledge was so helpful in assisting us to choose the perfect itinerary. It was comforting that she kept in touch while we were traveling throughout Africa. I feel so lucky to have had Sara arrange this trip and will certainly request her expertise again in the future!! You won’t have to worry about anything because she is on top of it all. Do not hesitate!! Book with Sara from Safari.com!

Sara is the best
Sara is the best! Believe me we had tons of questions about our upcoming safari and all were dealt with quickly and with detail and graciousness by Sara. Considering the 7 hr time difference, response time was as if she lived next door! Maybe she doesn't sleep. Sara's knowledge is also outstanding. We never received an "I don't know but will get back to you" response. We are so looking forward to our trip especially knowing that Sara is always available to help us out!

Great advice, responsive and knowledgeable!
Pascal John at Safari.com guided me on different safari lodges (experience, rating), and most importantly knew about specials (buy 3 nights, get 4th for free) which allowed my family to secure a 5-star location at a more reasonable rate. Great advice, responsive and knowledgeable!
