At home in the Himalayas - Ramgarh Heritage Villa, Raison.

Recently featured in The Hindu, Raison offers travellers a unique opportunity to discover the gorgeous  countryside of Himachal Pradesh & its fairy-tale villages, while experiencing royalty at a British bungalow built in the 1920s.  

Ramgarh Heritage Villa

The apple barons of the region have opened up this royal heritage villa to travellers, with its pristine location amid the village cluster of Raison, surrounded on all sides by lush Apple orchards, acres of kiwi plantations, and breath-taking views of the snow-capped Himalayan peaks.

Located off the Kullu-Manali highway in a village cluster called Raison, this Ramgarh Heritage homestay offers a royal retreat that can be spent winding down in a homely environment, trekking in the majestic outdoors, following Buddhist trails, or exploring the gorgeous countryside of Himachal Pradesh.

Homely accommodation is provided in the royal heritage bungalow made in English architectural style, with wooden ceilings and mud walls for natural temperature control. The royal drawing room of the house has an old fireplace to gather around over dinner.

Food can be ordered from an extensive in-house menu, and is freshly prepared by Vikas and Soma, both excellent cooks and caretakers of the house. The traditional Pahari food consists of curries, daals & a diverse spread of vegetables, and is a great introduction to typical Himachali cuisine.

India Untravelled: an introduction.

India Untravelled is our quest to help travellers discover a side of India that not many people have experienced before. Our destinations lie in rural parts of India with untouched natural beauty, where hospitality comes innately to the people and a traditional, earthy way of life can still be experienced.

At many of our destinations, you might be one of the few tourists in the region, and will get a chance to interact closely with the local communities, hosts, cooks and craftspeople. You'll love getting away from the crowds of the cities, and unwinding amid nature, in a safe & comfortable environment. At the same time, the revenue that your visits generate will help support and sustain the local communities, their heritage, culture, traditions and art forms.
