AWARDS & RECOGNITIONS

DhOLE’S DEN IS NOW OPEN

We are a homestay with dogs but not a pet friendly homestay. our six indian hounds aren’t friendly with their canine cousins. do keep in mind before you book with us

  • The hounds have their time out each morning and evening and their designated space
  • Some move around freely and unless bothered, keep to themselves, are inquisitive, come and sniff the in-house guests and visitors. 
  • We understand very well that some of our guests may be scared by their sheer size and respect their ‘fear’ for dogs and are therefore careful whenever there is a possible interaction
  • We hope that our guests will understand the above when they decide to book Dhole’s Den.
