Singita

Pamushana

Malilangwe Reserve, Zimbabwe

Conservation meet luxury

One of Africa’s best kept secrets, Singita Pamushana is located in the heart of the 100,000-acre Malilangwe Wildlife Reserve, in the remote south eastern corner of Zimbabwe. Perched atop a sandstone ridge overlooking the shimmering Malilangwe Dam and the lush mopane forests beyond, it celebrates the abundance of the surrounding nature and maximizes its exclusive isolation.

Singita Pamushana’s design–led architecture features thick walls, meticulous thatching and detailed stonework offset by bold interiors, raw timbers, leather and opulent metallics. Soft earthy hues paired with carefully selected pieces of traditional furniture, local art and antiques retain a sense of stylish authenticity. There are four 1-bedroom suites, each with a private plunge pool, as well as a choice of 2, 3 and 5-bedroom villas which are perfect for families or friends. The main lodge offers a dining room, three separate lounges and an extensive wine cellar as well as two heated swimming pools, a spa and Jacuzzi. In true Singita style, the level of luxury pays no regard to the remote location of the lodge.

All game drives takes place with professional guides and trackers in state-of-the-art Land Rovers and you are likely to spot wildlife including sable, cheetah, wild dog, lion, leopard, elephant and rhino. Guided walking safaris are highly recommended, as are visits to the ancient nearby San Bushmen rock art. Singita works closely with the Malilangwe Trust, which promotes community and conservation  initiatives, and you are welcome to visit the local village to experience the local Shangaan culture and see the trust in action.

Singita Pamushana stands alone in its wild remoteness and uncompromised quality. A truly outstanding safari destination.

Thank you for putting together the ancestral adventure of a lifetime. I cannot speak highly enough of the trip. The transfers went smoothly, the accommodation was excellent, the drivers were amazing as they manoeuvred through the traffic and every tour guide had a great deal of knowledge and information. Nothing was too much trouble for them. The contrast of poverty and riches of the country was striking, from the beggars in the street and struggles of the poor to the spectacular, impressive sights of the forts and monuments. There were so many highlights. A moment in time that will never happen again.

Jenny Kidd

Exellent and wonderful, reaching way above expectations.

We wanted the opportunity to see as many wildlife parks as possible and the Classic Safari Company provided an action-packed itinerary that included six, with 11 tiger sightings and nine leopard. This was overlaid with an introduction to Jaisalmer, Jaipur and the 'real' India. Pench and Panna were the hidden gems of a really great trip, very well organised, seamless and enjoyable. As a solo traveller I felt incredibly safe at all times. I want to go back!

Mark Taylor
