Story

If we were to ask what true passion looks like, for Mickey and Meher Sandhu, it’s a quiet mix of reclaimed lineage and the patient art of fishing. Mickey has spent twenty-five years on the banks of the Ramganga, and he runs Antler Woods with that same nature-first soul, where the outdoors isn't a view, but the main event. The lodge is a piece of the past brought home, a former Shikaar lodge belonging to their ancestors that the family simply couldn't let go of.

Keeping the rhythm of the house is Sunder, the manager who has been part of the family for over two decades. He’s always there with a smile, ensuring the transition from the wild to the hearth is seamless, and whether you’re in the upper rooms, where the terrace stretches deep into the forest canopy, or the lower suite designed for a family of four to stay close, you’ll feel it growing on you. Their front porch is not something to be missed, spend your evenings in leisure there, as you aren’t just booking a stay, you’re stepping into a family love letter to the wild.
