Patal Ghar ...A Hobbit village
Patal Ghar ...A Hobbit village
Can you visualize rising to the sound of birds chirping instead of the honking of traffic? Imagine a round wooden door opening right into the woods. That’s how the Ajodhya Pahar jungle camping experience would be, and that is the reason so many people find themselves going back there again and again. As for our jungle stay in Ajodhya Pahar, located in Purulia, in a hobbit style. At PatalGhar, we have witnessed so many city-weary visitors transform into forest-loving enthusiasts in just one day.
The Ajodhya Pahar lies quietly nestled amidst the serene Purulia in West Bengal. The thick sal forest of the area, along with its rolling hills and tribal villages. This makes it very distinct in terms of what it has to offer as compared to the other tourist destinations. What is most special about the area? However, it is the sense of life that permeates throughout the place in the form of the whispering of leaves. Also, the distant sounds of a Chhau performance practice session.
Recognize yourself in that? Well, gradually, this lifestyle takes away something from you. You no longer pay attention to the sunset and don’t know what silence sounds like. To put it simply, you detach yourself from those things that make your life enjoyable. And if that’s you, then your body already feels the need for a break. But an ordinary hotel holiday won’t help. You need a homestay in Ajodhya Pahar, something that will completely refresh your senses.
Here lies the beauty of your experience at a jungle stay in Ajodhya Pahar. The PatalGhar doesn’t come with a concrete resort and a “Nature View” written on its walls. After all, it is a true hobbit village situated in Sonkupi, very close to Matha forest. The rooms have been created out of eco-friendly material, with round doors and cozy interiors giving you a fairy tale experience.
Some things to do while you are there include:
Also, all the meals are made using only locally sourced ingredients. And once you spend the first bonfire evening with us, most of our guests would agree on one thing – exhale!
Before leaving for the vacation, one guest informed us that she hadn’t slept through the night in months due to deadlines, notifications, and continuous phone scrolling. She had planned a homestay in Ajodhya Pahar as a desperation option and didn’t expect much beyond a quiet weekend.
After two nights spent at PatalGhar, it turned out differently. She did jungle trekking, learned some movements from a tribal dance, and ate bamboo chicken prepared over an open flame. She slept for eight hours in a row, twice.
The connecting link between those two versions of her was not luxury or Wi-Fi connection but just the right dose of nature with people who truly care about the experience itself. This is the very concept of PatalGhar.
A hotel provides you with a room, while a homestay gives you a story.
Awareness begins with the first time you come across our hobbit-styled cottages at PatalGhar on the internet, half surprised and half amazed by their existence in Purulia.
