Jungle Aashiyan

A Sanctuary of Simplicity & Soul

Tucked away in the serene Satpura Hills, Jungle Aashiyana is an eco-retreat brought to life by the shared vision of Colonel Bappaditya Dhar (Retd.) and Dr. Sanchita Dhar. Together, they transformed the quiet village of Sawarvani into a soulful destination where nature, heritage, and mindful living come together in perfect harmony. While Colonel Dhar’s deep-rooted passion for India’s landscapes and sustainable living laid the foundation, Dr. Sanchita Dhar’s refined eye for culture, interior aesthetics, and heritage gave the retreat its soul. Her love for nature photography and birdwatching breathes life into the surroundings, often inspiring the serene visual and emotional tone of Jungle Aashiyana. Every corner of the retreat reflects their combined efforts — his grounding in structure and eco-conscious design, and her subtle elegance in décor, storytelling, and connection to India’s artistic roots. Their partnership ensures that each stay is not only restful but rich with meaning, memories, and a sense of belonging. Recognized by the Madhya Pradesh Tourism Board, Jungle Aashiyana offers a thoughtfully curated experience designed to rejuvenate the body, mind, and soul :
