The breakfast and other meals were freshly homemade—simple, delicious, and full of flavour. We got to try a different local dish every day, and the pricing was very reasonable and well thought out.

I liked everything about the place. The hosts were extremely nice people, we had an infant in our group and hosts were very cooperative and supportive.

This property is not in Shimla, it is at a different place which is 70km away from Shimla, so do not book it and do not expect any refund from the owner.

Exceptional location. Newly constructed place, hosts are very warm and welcoming, they do their best in serving and preparing food and snacks. Because the location is far from busy areas or markets. Carry your own snacks and beverages of choice.
