“A quiet home in Mukteshwar, with Himalayan views from the balcony. A series of A-frame cottages on a terraced slope, connected by stone steps. It's a place for a quiet outing, away from the rush of the main lake towns. The staff are polite and helpful, and the vegetarian kitchen is open for meals on request.”

A look around

What's here

The door opens to a clean, simple room, but the main event is outside. The balcony looks out onto the mountains, a view that guests watch from sunrise to when the night sky fills with stars. The home is a collection of A-frame cottages built into a slope, so the first thing you notice are the stone steps that connect everything. This is a single-room unit with one bed and an attached bathroom, suitable for up to two guests. While meals are not included by default, you have access to a kitchen. There is also an on-site kitchen that prepares fresh, vegetarian food on request. As one guest, Priya G, noted, "Food was vegetarian only and very nice actually. Tasty." The staff are often mentioned for their warmth. "The staff was बेहद polite, welcoming, and always ready to help with a smile," said Megha Gupta after her stay. It's a place made for slow days, for reading on the balcony, and for taking in the air. For many, the view is the reason they come. In the words of a past guest, Arun Sharma, "The mountain view from the balcony was absolutely breathtaking."

Around the stay

Things to do nearby.

The home is a good point from which to explore the Kumaon region.

Mukteshwar Temple & Chauli Ki Jali are a short drive away. The 350-year-old Shiva temple is a place of quiet devotion, but Chauli Ki Jali, a cliff edge nearby, offers wide-open views of the Himalayan range and is popular for rock climbing and rappelling.

Jim Corbett National Park is a longer drive, but essential for wildlife enthusiasts. The park, open from October to June, is one of India's best-known tiger reserves. Safaris can be booked at the Ramnagar gate.

Logistics

Getting there.

The home is in the Kumaon region of the Western Himalaya.

By air: The nearest airport is Pantnagar Airport (PGH), which serves the Kumaon region. From there, it's a taxi ride of about 3-4 hours to Mukteshwar.

By rail: The closest major railhead is Kathgodam (KGM). It has good connectivity to Delhi and other major cities. Taxis are available at the station for the onward journey to Mukteshwar.

By road: Mukteshwar is well-connected by road. It is about 50 km from Nainital, the main road hub of the region. Rishikesh, the Garhwal hub, is on the other side of the state.

Seasons

Best time to visit.

The skies are clearest and the views are best from March to June and again from September to November. This is the ideal time for trekking and sightseeing. The monsoon season, July and August, brings lush greenery but also the risk of landslides on mountain roads. The high-altitude passes and meadows like Auli and Chopta, which are further afield in Garhwal, are typically closed by heavy snow from December to February.
