Vineyards, farmhouses and a taste for the naturalistic
Nashik's wine country has given the region a landscaping character quite different from most Indian cities — vineyard properties and the farmhouse-style hospitality developments that have grown up around them tend to favour a rustic, naturalistic look over anything glossy or formal. Mixed river material and larger rocks feature heavily in these projects, used to create dry stream beds, informal borders and rockery-style features that sit comfortably against rows of vines and open countryside, rather than the tightly edged, high-polish beds you might find outside a city hotel.
