Singita Private Game Reserve is an exclusive 18,000 hectare sanctuary adjoining the Kruger National Park. Well known for its prolific wildlife, especially its concentration of big game and relaxed cats, in particular the often elusive leopard. The reserve allows for both game driving and walking safaris. Here stand three Singita properties, Ebony Lodge, Boulders Lodge and Castleton Camp.

Ebony Lodge is a charming tribute to the opulence of its colonial heritage. Gloriously appointed high on the banks of the Sand River, and richly adorned with the scarlet fabrics so loved in African culture, this camp has a cosy, immediately intimate feel. Reminiscent of a bohemian past, an expansive library, heavy wooden furniture and banqueting table are all in evidence. Twelve luxurious suites, two of which have two bedrooms and can convert to family suites benefit from private plunge pools and private bush settings. Suites are large and divided into separate living, bedroom and bathroom/dressing areas. Decadent bathrooms house large free-standing Victorian baths, each with separate powerful indoor and outdoor showers.

Game drives may be enjoyed in the morning and evening and are led by knowledgeable and experienced rangers. Cuisine is of the highest standard and complemented by an extensive cellar showcases a premium selection of wines, including some of South Africa's most sought-after private reserves and limited release wines. Between game drives, why not indulge yourself with a visit to the new and highly acclaimed Premier Wine Boutique, or perhaps relax in the spa with an African head massage.
