The cottages are beautifully decorated catering to a diverse variety of people who come to spend their time in our property. These stone cottages promise you a comfortable living while being away from your home amongst the wilderness. This place is famous for bird watching as large numbers of birds of various species are native to this area or visit it at certain time of the year. Waking up to the chirping of different birds is a luxury you can enjoy here.

Once you step out, breath in the pure cool air and cleanse your lungs. Walk to the terraced restaurant for your breakfast where you have the mountain peak as your view and a mild sun warming your body. After a sumptuous breakfast you can start your day with various activities that the resort offers.

Amongst all other activities, visit to the ancient temples is quite popular as there are number of old temples in this area. The Chitai Bell temple has thousands of brass bells hanging. These are offerings by devotees, a sign of wishes fulfilled by God. Then there is Kasar Devi temple where Goddess Kasar Devi is worshipped. Both the temples are situated near the resort and are within walking distance. The walk itself is highly enjoyable as you have to walk through rhododendron, pine and deodar forests. You will be able to see some exotic birds and small animals as well.

Some of the temples like Jageshwari temple have magnificent carvings on the walls dated back to 8thCentury. There are about hundred and fifty temples clustered together on the premises. The Katarmal Sun temple, also very old, has some beautiful carvings on its stone wall. Here too you will find forty five small temples surrounding the main temple.



The other activities which we recommend in our boutique resort are Kumaoni village walk, massage and spa, yoga, bird watching and visit to the Binsar wildlife sanctuary.
