Paatlidun Safari Lodge

In Bhakrakot village, within the Corbett Tiger Reserve buffer zone in Uttarakhand's Nainital district.

A 79-room five-star resort in Bhakrakot known for its Kumaoni-styled mud-house cottages and a regular guest list of Indian film and cricket celebrities.

Overview

Paatlidun combines conventional luxury villas – several with private pools and jacuzzis – with Mudhouse by Paatlidun, a cluster of cottages built from earth and stone in traditional Kumaoni style. The property runs its own spa, a dedicated wedding venue, and a full slate of excursions from jeep safaris to Kosi River picnics, and has become a favored retreat among Indian celebrities and cricketers.
