Discover Kings Lodge

Kings Lodge is a comfortable wildlife lodge, with an excellent team of dedicated naturalists, set in a large, forested area just outside of Bandhavgarh National Park. It offers serene quietude and tranquillity within the forest but is near enough to the park for thrilling jeep safaris in search of tigers. As well as this you can go walking and cycling and have authentic interactions with the local villagers.

The lodge offers 10 cottages and 8 picturesque stilt cottages with sweeping verandas to enjoy the stunning foliage and landscape. They are all air-conditioned rooms. The cottages are designed to blend with the surrounding landscape and the architectural style is quaint and rustic. Freshly prepared meals from the kitchen are served in the dining hall and there’s also an outside dining area for bush dinners and sometimes meals are served in the organic garden. For relaxation there’s a beautiful swimming pool with a sundeck or you can take a wonder around the butterfly garden.
