It is a cozy homestay on a massive piece of flatland at the hilltop just in the middle of a jungle. It offers a breathtaking view of the snow capped Himalayas overseeing a large grassland coexisting with its own helipad. There are 5 rooms for guests; 2 rooms on the ground floor and 3 on the first floor. All rooms have an attached bathroom and balcony with breathtaking views. You can also bring your own tents and put it anywhere in the property. Extra mattress will be provided.From the bonfire to listening to the local Kumaoni folk tales and ballads by the host family to playing with the inhouse pets to trying your hand at the homestay’s own organic farming, there is a lot that will keep you engaged here. It is also an ideal place to work from mountains with stable internet connection and power backup.
