A wood-panelled villa interior at The Rustik, Satpuda

Where the Forest Meets the River

Eight Cottages by the Denwa

Eight rooms near Satpura Tiger Reserve, each built around the forest rather than itself: stone-walled cottages by the riverbend, teak villas raised above the water, and valley-view rooms up on the hill. Listed below from cosy to clearing-the-family-tree.

Compact top-floor Hill View Deluxe Room (Top Floor) room

Hill View Deluxe Room (Top Floor)

A compact top-floor pocket with the best view-to-square-foot ratio at the resort. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the lawn below and the Pachmarhi valley beyond, most rewarding at sunset.

  • 275 sq. ft.
  • Up to 4 guests
  • Queen bed
  • Lawn + valley view
Deluxe Cottage with lawn view at The Rustik, Satpuda

Deluxe Cottage

Set against the open central lawn: easy walks, warm garden mornings, and a balcony that catches the first cup of chai. The most popular cottage on the property, and the one closest to the dining gazebos.

  • 300 sq. ft.
  • Up to 4 guests
  • Queen bed
  • Resort lawn view
Heritage Room with river view at The Rustik, Satpuda

Heritage Room

The most intimate cottage on the property opens directly onto the Denwa. Stone walls, a private sit-out, and a clear morning view of the river bend make this the quiet front-row seat to Satpura's dawn.

  • 330 sq. ft.
  • Up to 4 guests
  • Queen bed
  • Denwa river view
Hill View Cottage ground-floor room opening onto the lawn

Hill View Cottage (Ground Floor)

Two cottages on the ground floor that step out directly onto the lawn: queen bed, a private sit-out, and one of the few rooms on the property with a proper bathtub. The closest sound is the grass under your sandals.

  • 450 sq. ft.
  • Up to 4 guests
  • Queen bed
  • Lawn view · Bathtub
Hill View Cottage top-floor room interior with stone walls

Hill View Cottage (Top Floor)

Two cottages a floor up, with the same footprint and queen bed as the ground pair, but a long sweep of the Pachmarhi valley beyond the lawn. Most rewarding at sunset, and each room has a bathtub of its own.

  • 450 sq. ft.
  • Up to 4 guests
  • Queen bed
  • Valley + lawn view · Bathtub
Spacious Hill View Suite (Ground Floor) with extended sitting area

Hill View Suite (Ground Floor)

The largest single suite on the property: one ground-floor unit with a wide extended sitting area for six and quiet lawn frontage. The longest, slowest mornings here.

  • 550 sq. ft.
  • Up to 6 guests
  • Queen bed + extended sitting area
  • Lawn view
A single floor of the Wooden Villa sold as a standalone room

Wooden Villa (Individual)

A single floor of the Wooden Villa, sold on its own: teak-panelled, with a cane headboard and a private elevated deck looking across the Denwa. Same architecture and view as the full villa, just one floor's worth of space.

  • 625 sq. ft.
  • Up to 4 guests
  • Queen bed
  • Elevated river-facing deck
Two-storey wooden villa with cane headboard

Wooden Villa

Two-storey teak villa raised on stilts above the Denwa, sold as a full unit. Two queen-bedded floors connected by a shared central living hall, each with its own elevated deck: the upper one with the longest reach across the water. The room for a private eight-guest family or friend retreat.

  • 1,500 sq. ft.
  • Up to 8 guests
  • 2 queen beds + central living hall
  • Two river-facing decks
