Khem Villas - The camp is established on land that
Goverdhan purchased in 1989 and converted into a
wild area growing trees and creating open grasslands
and small water bodies, Spread over an area of 10
acres it has become a habitat in itself. It is
common to see jackals, jungle cats, hyenas, desert
fox, hares etc. within the camp itself. As it is
close to the park one can sometimes see pugmarks of
leopards, tiger and bears that have passed by and
sometimes if one is lucky one may even get to see
them near the Khem Villas. Because of the different
habitats in the property it has contributed to
creating a bird watchers paradise. All kinks of
Birds from the millions of White Throats among the
grasslands to the Sparrow hawks hovering in the sky,
the Black Winged Kites in the trees and the Moore
Hen near the water can be seen on the property
itself. The peace and tranquility at the camp is
unlike any other place in Ranthambhore.
The accommodation is divided into three categories
and designed by Pritam, Rachel, Goverdhan and Usha
keeping in mind that simplicity is the ultimate
sophistication; therefore everything has been
sourced locally using local materials. Khem Villas -
The Camp is designed to provide an authentic
experience that is unfussy yet functional.
