EXAMPLE ACCOMMODATION
Bera Safari Lodge, Bera

The five luxurious cottages are spacious and elegantly decorated. The restaurant serves continental and Rajasthani delicacies.

One of the only places where humans and leopards live in harmony, villages are banding together with Bera Safari Lodge to create a community leopard reserve in the area.
Castle Bijaipur, Bijaipur
An enchanting and modest castle standing high on a plateau of the great Vindhyachal ranges, Castle Bijaipur is one of our favourite heritage hotels. This is not, it should be made clear, because of the service - which is definitely more Fawlty Towers than Aman Resort - but because of the laid-back, unpretentious and aesthetically Indian experience it offers. More elaborate homestay, than commercial hotel, the castle gives breath-taking views of the valley and village encircling it, through which you can horse ride, cycle or take wonderful walks. The rooms of the castle, and its more contemporary Victorian wing, are all individually styled in addition to which there is a lovely courtyard to relax, a large swimming pool, plus a wonderful rooftop terrace to do some yoga, have a romantic dinner or just watch village life go by. For those looking for the heart and soul of India, this quirky palace will form one of the highlights of your adventure. Please note, we advise that you book any additional activities as soon as you arrive as these can get booked up quickly.
The Claridges, Delhi
The Claridges has been a veritable treasure in Lutyens Delhi since the 1950's. Amidst the rush of new modernity, the soul of The Claridges lives on. Refurbished, redesigned and revitalized, the hotel now offers guests an experience that is new and yet so familiar. The hotel is also in an excellent location just a short auto ride from Khan Market and not much further to Connaught Place. Under current management, the hotel has a blend of tradition and modernity. Leading designers of international repute have helped enhance the heritage and elegance of this four star hotel. There are 132 different rooms and suites, all designed with an elegant blend of 19th century character and contemporary style. Wine and dine to your heart's content in the Dhaba, inspired by rustic Punjabi villages; the Jade, serving Chinese-Cantonese cuisine; Sevilla, for all your tapas needs; Pickwicks, a multicuisine buffet that is always open; Ye Old Bakery, where the corn pudding is a must try; or the Aura, a romantic, dimly lit bar. There is also a refreshing outdoor pool, indoor gym and relaxing spa to enjoy at the end of a busy day.
Khem Villas, Ranthambore
At Khem Villas, it is common to see jackals, jungle cats, hyenas, desert fox and crocodiles within the 10 acres of surrounding grasslands. The hotel has a series of cottages and tents, each with private terrace. The eight stand-alone luxury cottages are spacious and comfortable, each with an outdoor shower, a large private courtyard and veranda. The food at the camp is entirely vegetarian, cooked using mainly home-grown organic vegetables, they have their own organic dairy and bakery. It is the perfect spot to go on a wildlife safari or alternatively, relax and indulge in the Ayurvedic treatments on offer.
Utsav Camp, Sariska Tiger Reserve
Surrounded by the rugged landscape of the Aravelli Hills, Utsav Camp offers a welcome escape from the busy cities and the perfect surroundings in which you can relax and soak up the region's stunning nature. The beautiful boulders of Tehla won the heart of a naturalist who understood their healing power and wanted to share this unique experience with like-minded travellers, and so Utsav Camp was born. Here guests will be immersed in a holistic nature experience, from the beautifully finished rooms and cabins, to the wonderful experiences on offer to explore the area, to the delicious fresh dishes produced using locally-sourced produce. The strong dedication to responsible tourism not only focuses on environmental efforts but also to the local communities as well, with over 85% of the Utsav Camp team having been hired from Tehla or the surrounding villages. The mantra is unplug to reconnect, and so you won't find wifi or tvs in your rooms. Instead, you'll be welcomed by stunning murals covering the walls of your spacious but cosy rooms, which offer private outdoor seating areas to enjoy the sights and sounds of the region's wildlife. Forget manicured gardens and embrace the wild beauty of this property, which perfectly combines modern luxury with a truly unique hidden gem of the country.
