Visited in April 24 and was completely mesemerized by the peace, tranquility, connect with nature of this place spread across 50 acres nestled in between imposing mountains and having well appointed cottages, swimming pool, stud farm, homecooked farm to table food. There were all kinds of birds ranging from the tiny hummingbird to the beautiful peacock all in their full glory and true habitat. Taking a dip in the swimming pool in complete silence from manmade noises and only the sounds of such birds was truly an experience for someone born and brought up in a city ! Owner thakur saheb is a true learned gentelman and great to have a conversation with. Staff is non intrusive and willing to follow instructions without much ado. Jeep safari arranged on rocky mountains and jawai dam was exhilarating with almost surety of spotting a leopard in its full glory. Son of soil approach of resort away from all corporatised and standardised hotel chains is a must have experience !

Korta escape is actually a reality of how beautiful slow life can be. It's a 4-5 hour drive from the Udaipur airport. The property is an example of how humans can benefit nature. The owner, Nirbhay Singh has created this with so much passion and his mother Laad ji adds that touch of warmth and love to this place. This place serves authentic home cooked Rajasthani meals. On request they made a spread of Laal Maas, Panchkuta, Gatte ka sabzi, amazing arrays of achaars and the Malai pyaaz ki sabzi was the best. It's a quiet getaway with so much to explore amidst nature. It's carefully designed with 5 natural trees/ shrubs to support the extreme weather in Rajasthan. With an abundance of amla trees, neem and henna shrubs. Nirbhay Singh ji also took us for a bush high tea in the forest which took him years to build. We spotted a wild camel there, amongst other animals like blue bucks and jackals. The best part about the trip was when we showed interest in the food and history of the place, Laad ji actually showed me around her vegetable garden, showed how the property has evolved and explained the history behind the dishes made there. And how she learnt to cook much later in life and just loves hosting people. This place has a horse stable as well with adorable horses to pet! This place is a hidden gem and is must visit.

Our first impression upon entering the property was that it was a forlorn place, with only rustic front office building visible amidst a mini jungle. We were welcomed by Shri Nirbhay Singhji, the owner, and immediately realized that we were sitting in a place with rich history. As we were taken to our cottage, the beauty of the place unfolded, with a lovely restaurant block, swimming pool and well-placed cottages. Apart from these areas, the property which also houses a stable, has been left to develop naturally. The constant presence of Nirbhay Singhji narrating the past in detail brought out interesting facts about the place and people. We did not opt for Leopard Safari as we had done many in the past. But the surprise package was, when in the evening, Nirbhay Singhji took us for an almost 3 hour drive through their farms, dairy, poultry; and the best of all – over 150 acres of their property which has been left to grow into a natural jungle. It almost appears like a bio-sphere – unspoilt, serene, with large number of plant and shrub species growing and supporting each other and the fauna of the place. It was the first time that we had seen one family’s rich contribution towards conservation. Truly revealing and commendable! The cottages are well appointed, clean and spacious. Nice swimming pool, excellent food – personally supervised by the family and wonderful staff make you want to spend more time here. The second day we had a nice dip in the pool, and in the evening, Nirbhay Singhji took us on another site – a quartz hill amidst the Aravalli range – but so different and captivating! We spent another 21/2 to 3 hours imbibing the beauty of the nature; visited their private temple in the village and came back thoroughly satisfied. It is an ideal property for nature lovers and people who are looking for some undisturbed ‘me time’, also those seeking adventure like horse riding, trekking and jungle driving. The place grows upon you. The personal touch of Nirbhay Singhji and family is priceless.

We were lucky to secure two cottages at Korta Heritage escape resort in early January at short notice. Skeptical at first but were pleasantly surprised to see a large resort in a rural setting. Place had very close familial touch with outstanding home cooked meals with new delicious items , none repeating daily at all three meals. Owner Mr Nirbhaysinh was very friendly and spent good deal of time with us always making sure that everything is in order. Enjoyed discussing worldly affairs at evening fireside chat daily. He even arranged a visit to his nearby farm growing vegetables and arranged a picnik lunch and sunset drinks. Even though lacking in wifi we had good internet and phone connection. Room heater is available for very cold nights. Would definitely recommend and hope to visit this site again in future.
