Corbett Hideaway
Corbett
Code No- AT-UP12
The sprawling
13 acre property of the Corbett Hideaway belongs to Leisure Hotels
Ltd. who own property at several other locations including the
picturesque Naini Retreat. Impeccable management by The Claridges
group gives guests the type of hospitality they are accustomed
to worldwide.
The great thing
is the balance between personalised services and professional management. The
latter is unobtrusive and taken for granted, while the friendliness of the
people you interact with, is refreshing and relaxing. Most of the employees are
local Kumaonis. Simple, unaffected, with a penchant for storytelling!

The burnt
red of the cottages forms a restful backdrop to verdant
environs. Sloping tiled roofs, cool stone floors with throw
rugs, block wood furniture and other details allow maximum
comfort while continuing the illusion of being in the wilds.
The accent is clearly on nature. The
40 guest rooms have a clever area separation, for sleeping
and for living, as in a suite. You get a sense of
miles of extra space. Double roomed suites are available
for groups and families.
All
the rooms are air conditioned with hot water in baths, and
a refrigerator full of cooling drinks.
Apart from a hundred and seventy six mango trees, you can
see at the Hideaway a bountiful jackfruit tree near the
reception, variegated bamboo including sacaram, bushes of
hibiscus, rainflower, gandharaja, ticoma, raat ki rani and
haemilia, azalea aplenty, and guava trees which yield fruit
three times a year! The
grounds are meant for meandering, loitering, meditating
and playing...
A
tennis court on the sprawling lawns gives way to the
swimming pool with its languid blue waters, very therapeutic
after a rigorous safari.
The
poolside bar lets you beer as you float.
Even
greater relaxation techniques are available close by - massage
therapy by trained masseurs.
By
the time you’ve worked up a wild appetite, your sense of
smell will lead you to the Gol Ghar, the thatched outdoor
restaurant which lays out magnificent breakfasts, lunches
and dinners. (The nights are generally wilder, with bonfires,
entertainment and bonhomie.)

The 20 feet high Gurney House named after the house Jim Corbett lived in for many years, gives you the civilised world.
Billiards, where potting the red might come easier than capturing a tiger with a lens.
Lounging, on sofas, while dreaming of the big cat.
Dining, rather lavishly, on freshly cooked exotica, continental and Indian flavours. Or sitting on the deck, and listening to the Kosi. Clinking glasses filled with amber.
Listening raptly to the slide show of the Corbett Hideaway Chief Naturalist in the meeting hall.
References about tigers, elephants and birds are available right down the path at the library, a free and easy place where you can sip a cuppa and browse. |

Charming souvenirs and memorabilia are for the picking at The Nature Shop which also stocks herbal cosmetics and fascinating local crafts.
Cuisine
The resort serves excellent continental food and Indian cuisine. And a great variety of it all! The specialities of the Kumaoni region are a favourite feature on the menu. The emphasis is on freshness of produce.(Remember to ask for minestrone soup, which is a wee bit spicy but lipsmacking. And the chicken kakori kababs that give your palate exciting information on gourmet cooking!) |

Corbett
Hideaway takes you on exhilarating safaris to the Corbett
Park on horseback, elephant and on cycles. Softer options
are jeeps and the Resort's Canter bus.
Probably
no other resort is as well equipped with safari facilities.
We
are the only resort with an officially approved safari bus.
Our jeeps have their engines tuned to go silently and stealthily
into the forest. And no other resort can boast of the gentle
Champavati who has lived her elephantine life for 56 wonderful
years!
You
are escorted by Corbett Hideaway's trained guides and naturalists,
who can read jungle signs and virtually smell out an animal
in the bush. Conversant with the favourite paths of various
animals, your guide will not let you return before you see
a splendid variety of animal and bird life.
