Jim’s Jungle Retreat offers 22 sophisticated lodges and safari tents in 15 acres of lush refuge, with forest and mountain vistas, countless bird-spotting opportunities, instinct-sharpening walks and safaris, and hours by the pool or on your private verandah.
We offer three accommodation styles, totalling 22 residences, designed with a focus on aesthetic, comfort and of capturing the area’s history. These include tents, cottages and lodges borrowing from their architectural past - old forest bungalows and safari tents. An extended verandah in each residence offers splendid views of the mountains and jungle. For families, cottages with an attached children’s room, can sleep four. Luxuriant fabrics, fine linen and subtle detailing create a comfortable and sophisticated environment. Century-old lithographs and plates of Indian hunting scenes frame walls. The furniture is designed with extensive use of local craftsmanship and material. Each uniquely-styled residence exudes charm and exclusivity.
Our dining area, open to the forest, offers a unique mix of cuisine from the days of the Raj and local delicacies. Often an Indian barbeque, hosted in shikar-camp style, awaits you by a bonfire.
Water bodies and open spaces lead to clumps of native shrubs and trees at the retreat, planted presciently to encourage nesting by the region’s abundant birdlife. Slide shows and wildlife films are screened in the lounge, built in local style with mud and thatch, which also includes an extensive library of India’s floral and faunal diversity. Our sparkling water hole-shaped swimming pool is a cool option between safaris.
Important Notice: It is always advisable to book safaris prior to arrival, especially during weekends as there are only 60 vehicles allowed inside the National Park at a time.
