Camp Mewar on Ketkiya is set in a thickly wooded ten-acres plot, sharing a common boundary with Bandhavgarh National Park on its south. The camp gets its name from the 'Ketkiya Nala', a stream which trickles along its edge. It is a charming place, full of character.
The owners, Vikramaditya Singh and his wife Annapurna, are from a long line of well respected families and they really make the place with their style and hospitality.
The Camp, which is just 15 minutes from the park gate, comprises of 4 Aodhis (cottages in the design of hunting towers of the erstwhile rulers of Mewar), 5 Tents and 3 Wood-thatch Huts.
The 'Aodhis' are close together overlooking grassland. They have masses of space including a dressing area and bath. The 'Aodhis' include a walled-in courtyard ideal for camp-fires and a terrace to enjoy the starlight nights or wide expanses of rural India. What they lack in looks from the outside they certainly make up for on theinside. They are grandly furnished, more like a maharajas palace than a village cottage.
The tents and the Wood-thatch Huts are also beautifully furnished. They are, in fact, very similar to each other both having solid walls, but the tents have a canvas roof for a canopy effect whilst the huts have a wood thatch.
There is a great dining area with an open fire for chilly nights.
