The Royal TouchBhupendra Singh Chundawat, an avid traveller, always wanted to develop a world-class homestay from which guests could return with an unforgettable experience. The result was Premkunj after he found the right location in the picturesque foothills of the Aravalis. As he stood there, the wind blowing around him, the hills on all four sides, he knew that this was the place where his vision would be realised.The location was perfect—nothing but the rustling of the leaves and birds chirping in the neighbourhood. The chance to observe wild animals in their natural habitat and not in cages. The freedom he felt when he escaped the cage of modern life. He then dedicated himself wholeheartedly to the development of the homestay—be it the decoration, the architecture, the garden or the collection of art and artefacts.A structure began to form before his eyes, taking all the goodness of nature and adding a touch of luxury. Something that enhanced the relaxing mood and atmosphere of the place. What he imagined was brought to life by the skilful hands of the stonemasons. Premkunj was born in mid-2019, resulting from two years of labour and a lifetime of dreams.Bhupendra Singh belongs to the royal family of Bassi near Chittorgarh, 150 kilometres from Udaipur. They have ruled this land for 500 years and bear the title 'Rawat'. His parents reside in the Bassi Fort, which the family still owns. The fort was built in the 16th century by Thakur Jaimal of the Sisodia dynasty, a distant cousin of Maharana Pratapji, the founder of the Bassi principality.
