Sher Bagh is the perfect place for those looking for the ultimate
in authentic Indian jungle camps. The tents, each with their own little verandah,
are arranged in a semi-circle around a garden and tented pavilion, in keeping with
their surroundings. The spacious, airy main lodge has a sitting area and an excellent
library-bar on the upper level, ideal for a beer or bloody-mary between jungle drives.
The Relais and Châteaux signature reflects this ambition: “ALL AROUND THE WORLD,
UNIQUE IN THE WORLD.“ Relais and Châteaux is a family of hoteliers and Grand Chefs
from all over the world who share a passion for and a personal commitment to ensuring

Sher Bagh has twelve luxury double-bedroom tents with their own
verandah and en-suite bathrooms. The Dining Tent serves a full English breakfast,
a light and usually Italian lunch and a traditional Indian dinner by candlelight.
A selection of food and refreshments may also be ordered in your tent. Sher Bagh
has its own organic vegetable and herb garden.
The Library Bar is open throughout the day. Perfect for a Beer or Bloody Mary before
lunch! The Baradari Tent serves afternoon tea, and is also a good place to read
or play a board game during the day. Discreetly located mud-decks are provided for
in various locations at camp. Should you wish to while the hours away with a book
or just enjoy some rest amidst the sounds of the forest, these will prove an ideal
spot. Hammocks, day-beds and campaign0-style furnishings are provided for your leisure.
Our hand crafted swimming pool offers stunning views of the National Park. Guests
may wish to relax in the cool waters with a drink or enjoy a swim during the heat
of the day between game-drives or any other time. A campfire is lit throughout the
winter season, and a bar set up under the stars. Guests may dine, al-fresco, around
the fire which is a unique experience at Sher Bagh.
Massages are a brilliant way to relax after a long day in the jungle. Sher Bagh
offers foot, hand, shoulder and head massages using local, age old techniques, and
natural oils. Besides jungle drives within the Ranthambhore National Park, Sher
Bagh offers specially tailored excursions including horse and camel safaris in the
area around the camp as well as visits to the 8th century Ranthambhore Fort in the
heart of the park. For a bit of local shopping, The Dastakari Kendra, a local co-operative
that provides employment to village women and keeps alive local skills is a must.
Laundry is available at the camp. The Sher Bagh Boutique sells a range of specially
selected and designed products. We have a doctor on call and there is a clean and
modern Primary Health Care Centre 3 kilometres away. The camp has a telephone, fax
and email facility, though connectivity can be erratic. We have round the clock
electricity, operating on 220-250 volts. Sher Bagh is operational from October to
April.
