Nestled in between a small village in the Patpara area next to Kanha Tiger Reserve is a lavish home which is the Courtyard House Kanha... The main home comprises of 5 huge rooms with attached toilets and a dressing area. It also has a 6th room which is just behind the house thats smaller in area but does include everything that you would need. The 5 rooms in the main house are split with 2 on the ground floor and 3 on the first floor. 2 outdoor terraces (1 covered and 1 not). Separate TV area / lounge and dining area. The swimming pool is of a decent size and also has a kiddy pool attached to it. The pool is not heated so if in the winters you planning on going for a dip be ready to scream as the water gets really cold. Next to the pool you have a nice barbecue area and a separate dining area where mostly the lunch and breakfast is served. The bedding is comfortable and you will sleep like baby. Toiletries are provided and also towels. Every room has an AC and a heater so it's equipped for every weather. The staff are very hospitable and accommodating. As our group of families (we were a group of 15 people) had taken all the rooms it was as if we were staying at home away from home. The whole team from the housekeeping to the kitchen were very helpful as we had kids from 10 months to 14 years, we had a variety of preferences and the team was more than willing to be of service. Access to the property is a long and bumpy ride as it's all a rocky / sandy ride. But you drive through a village which so does not belong to the times of today and has a beautiful old world charm. The same with the property actually, the switch boards, furniture, architecture take you back in time. The only hiccup is the geyser runs out of hot water pretty quickly as the water pressure is high and drains out the hot water. You can still have a decent shower but the next person would need to wait for a while. The food served is both veg and non veg. They have a set menu sort of a thing that has a mix of dishes but they would be OK with switching things around. Like 1 night we wanted an all Chinese menu for everyone and they were more than happy to oblige to our request. I would definitely recommend the property for large groups or even couples as it's a cozy place that you would just wanna keep coming back. The Courtyard House Kanha will surely be the place where I would want to stay the next time I am back in Kanha. A shoutout to the owner, Neelesh Bhai who was always available to answer any questions and make sure the booking and everything goes on smoothly, Prakash, the guy who manages the property, Ramakant and the whole service team and last but not the least, the chef (sorry forgetting his name) for the great food. …

This place is really amazing. Feels very homely especially since there are limited rooms. The staff is very polite and caring. Food is absolutely amazing. Hats off to the chef who prepared a variety of dishes for us which was different every day. The location is lovely. Sits within the buffer zone and animal calls can be heard clearly and frequently reminding us of the wilderness we're part of. It is just a 10min drive to Khatiya gate as well. The property itself offers multiple areas of enjoyment. A quaint indoor cafe like space, an airy outdoor space with a swing, a cute little pool, terraces, verandas and variously located khatiyas where one can laze about. Rooms are spacious and comfortable, including the bathrooms. The staff even served us meals at two different locations so we can enjoy varied experiences. Note that the road leading to the house is very bumpy being close to the forest. There is an alternate route which goes via a small village adjacent to the house. Overall, I was very happy with the house and will look forward to staying here again.…

If you are looking for a personalized touch in your bed & breakfast or boutique hotel stay then this is the best property to stay in at when visiting Kanha National Park. Amazing property with beautiful & spacious rooms and great food. Our lunch was arranged pool side one day, Bonfire one night and a wholesome breakfast packed for your morning safari are just some of the unique things that made our stay memorable. Likely that we would visit again and whole heartedly recommend to our friends and family to get this same experience.

Courtyard house is one of those amazing experiences that stays with you for long. Right from check in to check out, every detail was taken care of. The manager Prakash helped us with a smooth booking and made sure all necessary arrangements were made, Ramakant and his team are one of the best in hospitality. The food cooked by their chef Sukh Chain is just out of this world. I actually will plan my next visit not for the Safari and Kanha experience but for the food and courtyard experience. Anyone looking to book an amazing Kanha stay Courtyard house is your choice without doubt.

Rohit, Rama and the team at Courtyard House are fantastic hosts at this small and excellent home stay on the edge of the jungle at Kanha National Park. I’d recommend them completely for a 3-5 night stay / getaway coupled with safaris at the national park to see the wildlife including the majestic tiger!

We were lucky enough to stay here for four nights to go to Kanha reserve. From the moment we arrived we were treated like friends. The staff are so good, nothing is too much trouble and they are so kind. The food was really fabulous. The rooms are large and although not luxurious by European standards they are really comfortable and clean and there was always hot water. The pool area is small, but clean and restful.We were brought early morning coffee by Rama who was always there to ensure we were looked after. Rohit also deserves a special mention. He was our guide in the park and we spent evenings by the bonfire chatting. All of the staff were so attentive. It is a very peaceful place just outside of the village, but very close to the park which is beautiful. We were unlucky not to see a tiger, but the park has so much more to offer. We were sad to leave and would recommend a stay here if you are going to Kanha or just want to relax…
