Dhyaana Farms
Two nights on an organic farm beside the Ellora caves, every meal grown on it, and packed lunches for the days you go out.
Dhyaana takes its name from the word for a deep state of meditation. Its founders travelled the landscape around Ellora and Ajanta and decided to make somewhere people could slow down enough to see the rock-cut caves properly, rather than at the pace of a day trip.
Everything on the table is grown on the farm. On the days you go out to Ellora and Daulatabad the kitchen packs you lunch, so the caves are not interrupted by the question of where to eat.
Cottage and farmhouse rooms built in vernacular style, rustic in character with modern comfort inside, set around the organic gardens that feed the kitchen. Dining is farm to table, seasonal, running from regional Maharashtrian cooking through pan-Indian dishes.
Beyond the gardens there is horseback riding and there are jeep safaris through jungle and lakes. The caves are the reason most people come, and they are on the doorstep.
