Description
Situated 10 minutes from the main entrance to Ranthambore National Park, Sher Bagh’s 12 luxurious tents are set amidst the verdant grounds of a private estate. The camp has an eco-friendly ethos and laid back, welcoming atmosphere. The camp is also a member of the prestigious Relais and Chateaux group of hotels.
