The
burnt red of the cottages forms a restful backdrop to verdant environs.
Sloping tiled roofs, cool stone floors with throw rugs, block wood furniture
and other details allow maximum comfort while continuing the illusion of
being in the wilds.
The accent is clearly on nature. The 40 guest
rooms have a clever area separation, for sleeping and for living, as in a
suite. You get a sense of miles of extra space.
Double roomed
suites are available for groups and families. All the rooms are air
conditioned with hot water in baths, and a refrigerator full of cooling
drinks.
Services & Facilities : Apart from a
hundred and seventy six mango trees, you can see at the Hideaway a bountiful
jackfruit tree near the reception, variegated bamboo including sacaram,
bushes of hibiscus, rainflower, gandharaja, ticoma, raat ki rani and
haemilia, azalea aplenty, and guava trees which yield fruit three times a
year!
The grounds are meant for meandering, loitering, meditating
and playing...
A tennis court on the sprawling lawns gives way to
the swimming pool with its languid blue waters, very therapeutic after a
rigorous safari.
The poolside bar lets you beer as you float. Even
greater relaxation techniques are available close by - massage therapy by
trained masseurs.
By the time you've worked up a wild appetite,
your sense of smell will lead you to the Gol Ghar, the thatched outdoor
restaurant which lays out magnificent breakfasts, lunches and dinners. (The
nights are generally wilder, with bonfires, entertainment and bonhomie.)
The 20 feet high Gurney House named after the house Jim Corbett
lived in for many years, gives you the civilized world.
Billiards,
where potting the red might come easier than capturing a tiger with a lens.
Lounging, on sofas, while dreaming of the big cat.
Dining, rather
lavishly, on freshly cooked exotica, continental and Indian flavours. Or
sitting on the deck, and listening to the Kosi. Clinking glasses filled with
amber.
Listening raptly to the slide show of the Corbett Hideaway
Chief Naturalist in the meeting hall. References about tigers, elephants and
birds are available right down the path at the library, a free and easy
place where you can sip a cuppa and browse.
