“I booked one superior room and one deluxe room for 3 nights. The only difference was bed with curtain in superior room and rest everything was exactly same. In one of the room, one curtain was short and it was fixed on request. We were feeling cold hence room heater was also provided to us on request. Staff were very accommodating.

The home is a good starting point for exploring the Kumaon region. Nainital, the popular lake town and former summer capital, is a short drive away for a day trip of boating on the Naini Lake or walking the Thandi Sadak.
For a quieter outing, drive to Mukteshwar, about 50 km away. It's known for its fruit orchards and the 350-year-old Mukteshwar Temple, perched on a cliff edge at Chauli Ki Jali, which offers wide views of the Himalayan peaks on a clear day.
Wildlife enthusiasts can plan a trip to Jim Corbett National Park, India's oldest national park. The Ramnagar gate is the main entry point. The park is open from October to June and is one of the last strongholds of the Bengal tiger.
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 is a taxi ride to the home.
By rail: The closest major railhead is Kathgodam (KGM), the gateway to Kumaon. Trains from Delhi and other major cities terminate here. Taxis are readily available at the station for the onward journey.
By road: The home is accessible by road from major cities like Delhi. Nainital serves as the main road hub for the area. The main highways are generally well-maintained, but the last few kilometres to the village can be on a narrower road.
The Kumaon hills are a year-round destination. The clearest skies and most pleasant weather are from March to June and again from September to November. These months are ideal for sightseeing and enjoying the mountain views.
The monsoon season, in July and August, brings lush greenery but also the risk of landslides, and roads can be unpredictable. The high-altitude destinations in the region, like Auli and Chopta, are closed by snow from December to February, but the lower hills around Bhimtal remain accessible and offer a crisp, cold winter experience.
