Panna National Park, North & Central India, India

Pashan Garh is an ultra-secluded, über-chic safari lodge nestled on top of a hill deep in the jungle. Dreamy views over the tree tops extend from the verandas of its twelve cosy cottages, made from beautifully worked local stone and slate. Inside, block-printed silks and chocolate-coloured leather furniture add a splash of designer flair.

The effect is sophisticated, yet homely and romantic. Served by the poolside or on your own terrace, the food gets rapturous reviews, as does the hospitality of Pashan Garh’s staff, among who are a handful of expert naturalists who lead guided walks each afternoon around nearby woodland. Alternatively, while away those sultry hours between safaris in the lodge’s small, but inviting, pool.
