Type:    Wildlife Resorts Quick Summary: Nestling in the foothills of the Nilgiris, hiding from the heat and dust of the workday world, sheltering lovers of nature is a paradise called Jungle Retreat. Bordering the twin wildlife sanctuaries of Bandipur and Mudumalai, this is a sanctuary for human beings, where you'll find peace as well as adventure, always made that much more pleasant by the warm hospitality of the Mathias family. The Retreat is surrounded by dry deciduous forests, which are inhabited by deer, panthers, gaurs, tigers, bears and the highest population of the Asian Elephant anywhere in the world. The area boasts an incline from 3000 ft. above sea level to 6500 ft., which provides a whole range of climatic conditions for flora and fauna of every description to flourish amid the sparkling streams and virgin jungles. Rooms & Amenities : Spread over 35 acres, you could opt to come home to a range of accommodation styles from luxury to standard to novel experiences - away from the restaurant and main activity areas. With the expanse so wide, each of the cottages are set in different pockets of the campus and maintain their privacy, yet but at the same time you don’t feel lost and alone. There is no television, no telephone and no music in the rooms to invade the peace and quiet of the surroundings. This creates an atmosphere of utter serenity, which is as refreshing as it is rare. Deluxe Cottages: If a taste of sheer luxury in the wild is what you were looking for, then we offer deluxe cottages equipped with air conditioning, a refrigerator and a mini bar. The room is extremely spacious and is furnished with bamboo furniture and has its very private verandah with a panoramic view of the mountains. INDULGE is the word. Bamboo cottages for a novel experience. Built in an innovative style, entirely out of bamboo and thatch, (including the lampshades, the locks and the windows) the hut has open-to-sky bathrooms, mosquito netting and the fact that you're literally a foot above the ground (on stilts) will make your holiday truly unique. The romantic brave-hearted and adventurous souls can opt for tents (alternatively, you could bring your own), pitch them in a grove under a canopy of trees or on open ground, weather permitting. The tents are mosquito proof, and are equipped with bedding, sleeping bags, etc. We also provide a cook and a watchman on request For the feeling of being right above the ground, almost in synchrony with the surrounding hills, the tree house will literally sweep you off your feet. Over Thirty feet above ground level, catch a bird’s eye view of the stunning hills on one side and the plains on the other. Oh what a feeling!!! On Top of the World!!!! .
