Krishna Ranch

Udaipur


This delightful countryside retreat has five cottages set around the grounds of a small farm. Each comes with attached bathroom (with solar-heated shower), tasteful decor and farm views. Meals are prepared using organic produce grown on the farm. The ranch is 7km from town, near Badi village, but there’s free pickup from Udaipur.

It’s an ideal base for the hikes and horse treks that the management – a Dutch-Indian couple – organise from here, though you don’t have to sign up for the treks to stay here.
