About the space and location:
Check-in Time: 12:00 PM
Check-out Time: 11:00 AM

Once you take a step in, you can easily see how the wooden interiors have blurred the lines between the inside and the outside world here. Built with stone and wood against the views of the forest all around and a patio that extends into a veranda perfect for relaxing - you have every bit of nature to enjoy from the stay itself. Add to this the natural ambience, a bonfire pit, home-cooked Himachali food, and the peace here - it's the ideal vacation away from the hustle-bustle of the city life.

Situated near a small village on the way to Jalori Pass, the homestay offers scenic views of the hills; a river nearby that is worth exploring and dipping your feet in the cold, gushing water; hiking and trekking trails that call out for you as the sun rises; and the option to do nothing for a change and just unwind.

About the rooms:
With amazing 360-degree views of pine woods and an outdoor space where one can sit and soak in the serene nature, perhaps around a bonfire pit a few steps away, the 3 double sharing rooms and 1 family room here were built to pamper you. While the double sharing rooms can each accommodate 3 guests, the family room comes with two double beds and can accommodate 6 guests in total.

All rooms have attached bathrooms, with solar water heating system, and are equipped with basic and modern amenities like WiFi, laptop-friendly workspace, chair, table and indoor fireplace. As you fall back on the plush beds, you cannot help but notice the wooden ceiling that gives it a traditional Himachali look that will surely make you fall in love with the stay even more.

About meals:
Breakfast, lunch and dinner can be ordered on an a-la-carte basis at an additional cost. The kitchen serves some of the best delicacies in the area. Locally produced ingredients add to the flavour and nutrition. Do not miss out having some milky chai while you are here.
