About this property
Himalayan Orchards Farmstay In The Shimla Hills
Stay at a family farm bordering protected deodar forest, 70 kms beyond Shimla, with nearby local traditional stone and wooden temples, forest trails, and a trout stream at the valley bottom (one of the sources of the Ganges). Great hiking / trekking country, a long-distance bridlepath built in the British period connects the farm to the ancient Hindustan-Tibet Road at the top of the valley (Hatu Peak).
Quality accommodation for up to ten guests, home-cooked vegetarian meals using organic home-grown vegetables and fruit, plus all dairy products from our cows and fresh eggs from our chickens. ALL MEALS INCLUDED in the price. Cheese and jam-making demonstrations available. Our own spring water is solar-heated. Our wood-burners are fed by apple wood, and most of the bathrooms also have underfloor heating. Relax in the garden (with fish pond), living room, verandah and games room. Enjoy the snooker table, badminton, table tennis, darts, lawn boules, board games, piano, guitars, a video collection and projector for film nights, and book library (1000+ books).
The farm is an ideal setting for individuals or groups (‘luxury vagabonds’) seeking peace and tranquility close to nature. A pick-up service is available from the nearest airport in Chandigarh (5 hours).
ALL MEALS INCLUDED in the price.
A ‘cheap and cheerful’ self-catering studio apartment with its own private terrace is also available, with maid’s room.
The property is 2 minutes’ walk from a small village (Rukhla) but there are no shops or other facilities. The nearest shops are a 45-minute drive away in Gumma or Kiari.
Inclusions: All guests have use of the garden, games room (snooker table), games room verandah (piano), book and video library (with projector and screen), tea / coffee in reasonable quantities, soap, shampoo, towels. A Wifi dongle is switched on every evening after dinner for an hour. A barbecue is also lit, if desired. A washing machine is available, but a small charge (Rs. 100) will be made for large loads. Fresh spring water.
Exclusions: Guests should bring their own alcohol, ready-made snacks, sweets and so on. There is no TV anywhere on the property.
Room Types
The property consists of parts of a third-generation working farm, with apple orchard, cow/goat/chicken sheds and associated buildings, including farm workers’ accommodation and a family temple. Farm work is ongoing and guests should expect rural sights and smells in the immediate vicinity. The Main House was specifically built as a family home (two-storey bungalow style with thick stone and mud walls) while other parts were originally made for agricultural use and have been converted. All areas are tastefully and comfortably furnished, including many art and other objects gathered in the owners’ travels within India and overseas, as well as some family heirlooms.
All bathrooms/toilets are recently renovated, if not brand new.
Living Areas:
There is a comfortable lounge with large fireplace (woodburner) and video projector and screen, which can comfortably seat 8 – 10, with windows and a door onto the garden, and others opening onto a covered balcony, which can seat 4 – 6, with stupendous views of the valley below. The balcony adjoins an open terrace, suitable for al fresco dinners, or yoga. The garden lawn can be used for French boules, badminton, yoga, or eating out under the stars, candle-lit.
Next to the lounge is an open plan kitchen-dining room, with recent modern fitted kitchen, store room and a second fireplace/woodburner. Windows onto the garden.
In a separate yet connected building (covered steps) is the games room and bar, with 5’ x 10’ snooker table and dartboard, with underfloor heating. The games room verandah is a covered seating area for 8 – 10, with piano, guitars, sitar, potted plants etc. views of the orchard and valley below. There is also a well-stocked library (1500 books, roughly), including a wide range of fiction, reference, travel, art, history, poetry, politics, biography, and children’s section.
Rooms:
There are two luxury en suite bedrooms within the main house. An annex (the Old Kitchen) is three metres away across a covered area, and has its own en suite bathroom. The Old Kitchen annex has large exposed beams and skylights. The rooms have views of the garden, forest, orchard or the valley below, and are tastefully decorated and comfortably furnished.
A separate studio apartment (the Cheese Room) is part of another building, accessible via a covered series of steps. It is a spacious bedsitting room with dining table, and a galley kitchen attached. It also has a small private terrace overlooking the orchard and forest. Guests using this standard-grade apartment can use a private external Indian-style bathroom, or if they are part of a party some of whom are in the Main House, they can share the use of the luxury downstairs bathroom therein.
The Cheese Room apartment can therefore be used either as a self-catering unit for two, or as an add-on for a party using the Main House, with all meals included.
The Mud Room is a separate, very basic, small yet comfortable room with traditional mud/adobe walls, with use of a private external Indian-style bathroom, or if they are part of a party some of whom are in the Main House, they can share the use of the luxury downstairs bathroom therein.
Other Spaces:
The gardens, orchard and forest, all of which are immediately accessible, are all freely available for guests to explore and enjoy. The orchard and forest have been marked with trail markers and a guide map including timings, points of interest and levels of difficulty is available.
NB. The property as a whole also accommodates the owners, their parents and two families of farm workers, including seven children, and there is therefore always someone on site, although no-one is officially charged with being a security guard or caretaker. All doors have locks, the keys are given to the guests, and a safe deposit box is also available, behind two locked doors.

Why they chose this property
The farm is on the edge of a deodar forest, through which there are many trails leading up to the nearby peaks, many of which have their own temples.
The walking possibilities range from wandering down into the orchard with a good book, to a quiet stroll along a fairly level country road through the woods, with barely any traffic, to overnight wild camping treks through (almost) uncharted territory; and everything in between, and beyond.
The mountain biking possibilities are endless, and so far largely unattempted. There are all sorts of tracks, trails and 'roads' leading everywhere all around the valley and beyond - most of which are unpaved and although well-used, what traffic there is, is pedestrian, with very few motorised vehicles.
Bird-watching offers particularly rich pickings. The farm is located in an area peculiarly rich in flora and fauna, at the limit of the orchard belt stretching up from the river below, with protected deodar forests stretching above it to rocky mountain peaks beyond, and beyond that lie more or less virgin protected open forests stretching to the glaciers in the far distance.
Fishing, particularly fly fishing, is an area we are hoping to explore soon, as there is a pristine mountain river at the bottom of the hill.
Evening activities centre around the games room, where there is a billiards/snooker table, table tennis, darts, and a small bar. The games room verandah has all sorts of eclectic board and card games.
Our bit of HP in the east, heading up towards Kinnaur and the Tibetan border, remains fairly untouched – at least by tourists. It is mountainous terrain – some of the highest in the world, up to 6,815 metres – and the lower slopes, such as our farm at around 2100 metres, are steeply terraced for agriculture, with wooded peaks at the top of the valley, and fast-flowing mountain streams at the bottom.

What makes this property unique
Alongside the farming activities, there are good quality farm-stay facilities to accommodate visitors who are sensitive to and appreciate the peace of this traditional hill community and the beauty of the surrounding natural area. The farm is located in an area peculiarly rich in flora and fauna, at the limit of the orchard belt stretching up from the river below, with protected deodar forests stretching above it to rocky mountain peaks beyond, and beyond that lie more or less virgin protected open forests stretching to the glaciers in the far distance.
The farm is supplied with hydroelectric mains electricity, although temporary black-outs are very frequent – but we now have our own back-up system, plus solar water heating, and wood-burning stoves, providing constant lighting, hot water and heating, when needed. All the firewood is from sustainable resources - usually from pruning the orchards. The water is mountain spring water from our own spring.
The climate is mild. Temperatures peak at less than 30 degrees in the hottest months, May and June, and then drop during the monsoon in July and August. The autumn and spring are generally clear and crisp, and the winter is usually quite short, with most snow falling in January and February. The farm is rarely cut off completely for more than a few days at a time.
The farm borders protected forest, which grows up to the nearest peak at Reoghati, a three-hour hike up, from where you have 360 degree views, including the Great Himalayas stretching into Tibet. After Reoghati, the forested peaks stretch away through wild, uninhabited country, as far as the glaciers in the far distance.
The orchards and forests immediately around the farm attract a wide range of bird and animal life – increasingly rare Himalayan griffons, eagles, owls and vultures, and many colourful smaller birds, some of which migrate up from the plains in the summer. There are also bears, leopards and mountain lions active in the area.
