In every summer holiday, there arrives a moment when the children are glued to their screens, you have not glimpsed a clear sky in weeks, and the family calendar has become one unbroken blur of school runs and deadlines. Then someone says the magic words: “Let us go somewhere for the holidays.” The question is never really whether you need one. It is a matter of where to go so that everyone, from your six-year-old to the oldest member, returns home truly rested and just a little wild-eyed with joy.

That is where Ramnagar comes in. And where The Golden Tusk comes in even closer.

Nestled within Village Dhela on the edge of the Jim Corbett landscape, our luxury resort in Ramnagar stretches across ten acres of green, set right along the banks of the gentle Dhela River. Close enough to the jungle to hear it stir at dawn. Comfortable enough that no one has to rough it to savour the wild. For families, that balance is everything.

Why Ramnagar Is Built for Family Holidays

Ramnagar is the gateway to Jim Corbett National Park, India's oldest national park and one of the finest places in the country to observe a wild tiger on its own ground. What truly distinguishes it for families, however, is the wealth of things to do beyond the safari gate.

Within easy reach, you will find:

Corbett Falls, a scenic cascade framed by teak forest, perfect for a picnic and a short leafy walk
Garjiya Devi Temple, a striking hilltop shrine on the Kosi River that even restless children find magical
The Corbett Museum at Kaladhungi, occupying the one-time home of the legendary hunter-conservationist Jim Corbett
The old Kosi suspension bridge, a swaying and memorable crossing framed by river views on both sides
A nearby strawberry and organic farm, where the youngest visitors can savour fresh fruit gathered directly from the plant

And the finest part of all. You are never far from home base. The Golden Tuskrests roughly 27 minutes from Ramnagar Railway Station and about 25 minutes from Jim Corbett National Park, so travel days remain short and meltdowns remain rare.

A Resort Where Every Age Feels at Home

One of the foremost challenges of family travel is finding accommodation that satisfies everyone.

Parents long for comfort. Children long for space. Grandparents long for convenience.

At The Golden Tusk, our suites, villas, and luxury tents are designed for the way families really travel. The Garden Suite, enveloped in greenery, offers couples and families abundant room to breathe. Larger and multi-generational groups settle happily into our spacious villas.

Teenagers who favour a touch of adventure cherish the glamping romance of a luxury tent without losing a single comfort. Do you prefer a slice of privacy entirely your own? Our private pool villas let you swim, bathe, and unwind without ever sharing the water.

Never a Dull Moment for the Little Ones

This is the moment parents look forward to most. As you ease into a lounger beside one of our two large swimming pools, the children step into a world made just for them.

A dedicated kids' play zone offering slides, swings, a see-saw, a merry-go-round, and a trampoline
A separate children's pool, giving the youngest swimmers a safe space for splashing
Daily activities for children that keep young guests cheerful and occupied
Evening entertainment, from live music to cultural performances
Open-air recreation including cycling, badminton, volleyball, and basketball
A quiet, well-stocked library for guests who enjoy peaceful moments indoors

It is the kind of retreat where, somewhere around the second day, you notice that nobody has reached for a phone.

The Easy Bits That Make the Difference

The small things are often what families remember most. At The Golden Tusk, those thoughtful little touches add up beautifully.

Food everyone agrees on, with a multicuisine and barbecue restaurant that keeps even the fussiest eaters smiling
A grown-up breather where parents can enjoy a spa session or a quiet drink once the day winds down
Pet-friendly stays, so the four-legged member of the family never has to stay behind
Easy safari access, as the nearby Dhela and Jhirna safari zones stay open through much of the year
Beautiful winter weather between November and February, ideal for wildlife sightings and outdoor experiences

Choose the Right Accommodation

Select a stay that suits your family size, travel style, and comfort preferences. Villas and suites work beautifully for larger groups, while luxury tents add a memorable touch for adventurous travellers.

Keep Your Itinerary Flexible

Leave room for unplanned moments. Some of the best family memories are made during slow afternoons, riverside walks, and spontaneous conversations.

Mix Activity with Downtime

Not every hour needs to be filled. Balance jungle safaris and sightseeing with poolside relaxation and quiet evenings together.

Plan Shared Experiences

Whether it is a barbecue dinner, an evening cultural performance, or a morning nature walk, shared experiences often become the highlight of the trip.

Stay Long Enough to Truly Slow Down

The finest holidays are not rushed. Give yourself enough time to disconnect from routine and reconnect with family.
