"We were about to order, but then there was a rat running across the restaurant. The staff were nonchalant about it as if it were acceptable for rats to be there. Hygiene training needed."

"Lovely view over Pushcar Lake. And delicious food. I ate chana masala with a garlic nan and my family ate falafel with salad and said it was delicious."

"Great view of the ghats and sunsets over the hilltop temples. The food was surprisingly good, despite sticky tabletops and grubby menus."

"Toilets with toilet seats!"

"A disused quarry pool for swimming in nature. Dragonflies and lillies."

"Maybe an odd tip, but they have their own spring on the estate so the tap water is delicious. It’s mineral rich and has no chlorine!"
