A look around
What's here
The first thing you notice is the quiet. The road ends, and the sounds of the highway are gone. One guest put it best: it’s a place with "no sounds of highways or city life, just the quiet chirping of birds and occasional bells of the cows." The home is made of two main blocks, with a large lawn in front where you can sit, play, or gather in the evening. Inside, there are twelve simple, airy bedrooms, each with its own attached bathroom. The rooms are designed for rest. They are clean and uncluttered, with king-sized beds and a small table and chairs for morning tea. Large windows look out onto the surrounding greenery. This isn't a place of ornate decoration, but one of clean lines and open space, letting the forest outside be the main focus. Meals are a central part of the stay here. The kitchen serves food that guests consistently describe as a highlight. It is fresh, flavourful, and feels like it was made at home. As one guest noted, "The food is a big highlight - fresh, tasty, reasonably priced, and comforting like home-cooked meals. Every meal felt satisfying and wholesome." The host, Vaibhav, and his team are often mentioned by name in reviews. They run the home with a personal touch that many guests find memorable. "A big shoutout to the host, Vaibhav and his incredible team," wrote a recent visitor. "They’re genuinely welcoming and go out of their way to create a home-like experience for every guest. It's the kind of hospitality you rarely find." Evenings are for sitting out on the lawn. As the sun sets, the staff often sets up a bonfire, a simple pleasure that brings people together. It's a good way to end a quiet day in the hills.

this property is nestled deep inside a jungle and yet surrounded by villages hidden from the homestay. It is a very quiet and relaxing place with no sounds of highways or city life, just the quiet chirping of birds and occasional bells of the cows. It has wide open space to sit and relax in the evening and enjoy the sounds of the birds.

this property is a very nice place to stay. You get a good ground to play here. You get home-like food here. You get the best location for evening parties and you can spend the night very comfortably with a bonfire. The staff here is also very nice and handles everything very well.

Getting there.

By Rail: The closest major railway station is also in Chandigarh (CDG). From there, you can hire a taxi for the final leg of the journey.

Seasons

Best time to visit.

The best time to visit Nahan is from March to June, when the weather is pleasant and the landscape is green after the winter. Another good window is from September to November, when the skies are clear after the monsoon and the air is crisp.

The monsoon months of July and August see heavy rainfall, which can make the forest lush but may also lead to landslides on the highways in the region. The winter, from December to February, is cold, but the quiet and chill have their own appeal.
