An impeccable place to walk down the memory lanes of your childhood days of the famous story ‘The Jungle Book’ and the character "Wolf Child - Mowgli" - penned by Sir Rudyard Kipling. This book was inspired by the true incident of a human child, raised by wolves in the nineteenth century, in the Seonee (now Seoni) district, located in Pench.
Only a few minutes from the national park entrance these 12 charming stand-alone bungalows are built alongside a picturesque ‘nullah’ (dry riverbed), that demarcates the lodge premises from the national park. Each bungalow at our safari resort in Pench National Park comes with its own rooftop machan, indoor and outdoor shower areas and a private sit-out surrounded by the woods. A colonial theme is nuanced in the guest areas with a vintage radio, crystal candelabras on the dining table and metal chandeliers. Delicate Parsi tiles on the live food counter, woven hyacinth furniture and giant ebony chests add to the elegance of the hall. The Taj Safari Lodge in Baghvan has a delightful infinity pool shaded by trees and overlooking the forest.
Snuggled in forty acres of wilderness, lies an eco-luxe resort in Pench, in a small tribal hamlet of Sarahiri.

It's a royal retreat, a 550 sqft super luxurious tents that gives the ultimate experience of camping in forest. The sensory experience begins with inviting canopy of exotic blooms, at the entrance, which is a visual and olfactory delight. The view of Ganghar River from the outdoor deck is simply superb; and the scenic beauty of jungle from here is the kind of stuff postcards are made of.
