Amanbagh, in rural Ajabgarh, India, is one of those places that only the cognoscenti will ever visit. The price keeps the masses at bay while the remote rural location means that all but the most determined will shy away. But, boy, do those who visit get rewarded.
The drive to Amanbagh takes you through the heart of rural Rajasthan to the foot of the Aravalli Hills. The hotel is situated in the grounds of a Maharajas’ hunting lodge and part of the exterior wall still forms the perimeter. This is a land where wild leopards still roam free and villagers go about their daily life as they have for generations.
Our favourite rooms are the first-floor Garden Haveli suites with elevated views over the pool area. They come with their own outside courtyard with sunloungers and day bed.
Rural Rajasthan is within touching distance. Take a sunset Cow Dust excursion on which you’ll discover, from the comfortable confines of an open-topped jeep, real life for the local villagers. If you’d prefer to use your legs, your butler will take you for a stroll through the nearby fields and settlements.
