Bhainsrorgarh Fort, Bhainsrorgarh
Bhainsrorgarh Fort, Bhainsrorgarh, Nr. Kota
Situated south-west of Kota, this impressive, rambling
18th century fort is surrounded by its own village and sits high on a
promontory jutting out into the River Chambal. The river is dammed downstream
so is always full and looks truly beautiful all year round. The fort sits
on the cliff edge and the views down to the crocodile filled river and
across the plains are endless. Having only recently opened its doors to
visitors, it is family run and a homely place to stay. Keen on restoration,
the family is slowing pulling their ancestral home back from near ruin
and it is a fantastic labour of love. The food is simple but delicious
Rajasthani home cooking and the rooms have been excellently done up. They
are immaculate with large bathrooms and modern, state of the art fittings
and traditional furnishings. Great care and attention to detail has been
given to all aspects of the property which offers a charming 'home' in
south-western Rajasthan – an area yet to be really discovered and
remaining wonderfully unexploited and rural. There are plenty of terraces
and shady verandahs to sit on, along with large gardens and acres of ruins
to explore. The walking, riding and picnicking is second to none and exploring
the surrounding village is like being in a time warp. With only 5 rooms,
it is highly personal and has yet to get that 'hotel' atmosphere that
so many other properties have.
ACCESS:is by air to to Jaipur or Udaipur from
Delhi, Bombay, Jodhpur, Ahmedabad, Udaipur, followed by a 6 / 5 hour road
journey. Alternatively, by train to Kota followed by a 1 hour road journey.
Or, by car from Kota, Bundi, Chittorgarh, Sawai Madhopur, Shahpura, Deogarh,
Delwara and Udaipur. A longer drive from Jaipur and Bhopal.
RESERVATIONS: For reservations please contact your tour operator,
your local travel agent, or
the hotel direct.
