"A farmstay within reach of Ellora and Ajanta, where the vegetables are grown on site and the name means a deep state of meditation"
Dhyaana Farms sits in the Aurangabad region of Maharashtra and takes its name from the word for a deep state of meditation. It began after its founders travelled to the landscapes around Ellora and Ajanta and decided to make a place where other people could slow down and see those sites properly.
The rooms are cottage and farmhouse rooms drawing on vernacular design, with interiors that keep the rustic character while adding modern comfort. Dining is farm to table, built on organic and seasonal produce grown on the farm itself, with menus running from regional tradition through pan Indian cooking.
Beyond the farm there are organic gardens to walk, horseback riding and jeep safaris through jungle and lakes, and the rock cut architecture and murals of Ellora and Ajanta.
