On 8th Apr 2011 we visited the K Gudi Jungle lodges and resort, Actually it was our first Jungle lodge trip and we were really surprised and thrilled by the location of our accomodations (Cottages & Loghuts). It was in the heart of the jungle surrounded by thick forest. You feel close to the nature when you hear bird/ animal sounds from your Cottages.
Superb ambiance & service by the Jungle Lodge & its staff. Food was excellent specially Non-Veg items and morning breakfast.
