Why Groowynd Recommends this Property

Well-known for its large herds of blackbuck, the Velavadar National Park is also one of the best sites for viewing wolf and striped hyena.
The USP of the cottages at the The Blackbuck Lodge is the deck behind each bedroom which offers a view of the bush. You can spot birds and butterflies among the plants, and watchout for a blackbuck or blue bull antelope in the surrounding Savannah.
