Feature DESTINATION
the lodge merges seamlessly with the shifting light, shapes
and moods of the environment, providing a soothing
sanctuary for world-weary travellers craving a connection
with nature.
Dramatic sculptural shapes, abstract art, and carefully
curated collections of crystals, seed pods, bones and other
found objects articulate a deep connection with the wild.
There is a sense that everything has been derived from the
earth. Rustic and worn, woven and carved, furnishings
include iconic pieces fashioned from fossilised tree stumps,
slabs of solid stone, artisanal wrought iron and leather, with
each element designed to reveal its intrinsic beauty. Aweinspiring original contemporary paintings, sculptures and
soft, sensual textures – a sheep-skin rug to step onto when
you get out of bed, or the feel of natural flax bed linen on
your skin – add subtle layers of luxury.
Open to the elements or separated from the outdoors
by glass walls, the lodge provides a continuous connection
with the prolific wildlife and birdlife for which the reserve is
so well known. Cleverly designed communal spaces, such
as the new sociable Copper Bar serving freshly pressed fruit
juices, espressos and cocktails, provide new opportunities
for guests to connect with their surroundings and with each
other.

soul of Singita Boulders Lodge has been fine-tuned and
stripped back down to the basics, freeing up guests to
experience and explore nature like never before.
