Description: Chitvan is the most discreet of the Jungle and Safari Lodges in India. It blends into the surrounding landscape, while providing a stunning viewpoint for observing the area's wealth of Wildlife. Chitvan blends perfectly with the surrounding countryside. The surrounding hills are wooded, and the open grassland in front is interspersed with some Sal trees, whistling thorns, and some scrub. You will be captivated by this unspoiled corner of Kanha National Park, spread in about 14 acres of land. Idea to construct the lodge compound and to share our patch of Wilderness with the world resulted in - 3 blocks of 4 Suites each, and two communal living areas, and a dining hall with a wide veranda overlooking the valley - are intended to offer a homely and thoroughly relaxing respite from days out on safari. In keeping with the intentions of Kanha and the local community, almost every part of the Lodge has been made by hand from natural elements. All blocks are at different areas on the site. Special emphasis has been kept on the fact to ensure a spectacular view of the forest and farmlands. Come experience a life of both pleasure and adventure, of elemental living in an extraordinary place. We have created an experience of great Luxury and sensuality. A routine is set in this place, rising at dawn, a vigorous day in the Jungles that Kipling immortalized, a lavish evening mealback at base, you might like to enjoy the evening meals under the stars, an open to elements dining followed by Cigars, Brandy, and tales of Safari sightings around the fire. While breakfast is served at the Lodge tables by the waterhole, as wildlife gathers for a morning drink. Few Safari experiences in India are as intense and intimate. Fabrics and textiles have been sourced from all over India (to give a complete Indian Experience), traditionally woven woolens and cotton textiles are used throughout for upholstery, bedcovers and curtains. The cottages vary in shape as they have been created to fit into the immediate environment with a minimum of disturbance. The overall effect is earthy, warm and comforting.
