Accommodation
: The
lodge has two rooms in the main building (sharing a bath) and
4 cottages with attached bathrooms, featuring western toilet
fittings, hot-and-cold showers. Comfortably furnished, the
rooms and cottages are surrounded by groves of the famous
Kesar Mango of the Gir hills and other vegetation ensuring
that a good number of birds come into the property itself.
The
dining and drawing areas on the first floor of the lodge are
airy and have large windows and verandas that are ideal to
enjoy the view of the forests and watch birds in the orchard
and nearby sanctuary.
Cuisine
: North
Indian and western set-menu meals are served in these rooms
that have a superb view of the deciduous forests from large
windows, doors and verandahs. We also entertain special
requests for meals like traditional Gujarati/Kathiawadi
regional dishes, North-West Indian street-food specialties,
Kumaoni-style Chinese and of course the famous seafood from
Veraval (a major fishing pier for lobster, crab, prawn and
seafish like pomfret and kingfish) one hour away.
WALKS
: Our resident naturalists have identified pleasant
walking routes for birdwatching, picnic lunches or scenic nature
trails in the forests near the lodge. Ask for the
services of our resident birdwatcher if you want to go for a
birding walk or for a nature trek. Our cook will be happy to
pack you lunch for a picnic in the forests or at riverside
sites near the lodge.
