For all those home stay enthusiasts, we bring you The White Peaks. Nestled amidst glistening silver oak forests on all three sides, The White Peaks is a charming little private cottage located in the elusive Himalayan hamlet of Gagar in Uttarakhand. The crisp mountain air and the serene atmosphere of the place slowly ebbs away stress, making it an ideal place to slow down and enjoy the simple things of life. A boutique home stay, it is perfect for writers, poets, bird-watchers or even those who wish to spend some quiet time or run away from the cacophony of big cities. With a cozy fireplace and a sun- drenched courtyard that offers a dramatic, panoramic view of the imposing snow-covered Himalayan peaks, The White Peaks is your little home in hills.
As you reach the quaint village of Gagar, a walk up a sun-dappled, windy road, next to a handful of humble village shops, leads you to the cottage, giving you a glimpse of the oak forests that fringe the place. The two rooms in the cottage are cozy, intimate and exude a subtle elegance. Sit by the fireplace and enjoy endless conversations or just lounge in the courtyard, admiring the stunning vista. For yoga junkies, there’s of course a small, private balcony which could be their own yoga space, overlooking the valley and if that’s not enough, the endless walking trails in the adjoining oak forests will surely urge you to stay outdoors. The White Peaks has a good collection of books and is just the right companion for idling away winter evenings along with simple, home cooked food, prepared with fresh, local ingredients.
Activities here could be endless from hiking, bird/butterfly watching, or you could just laze in the balcony overseeing the Himalayas, sip your cup of chai and get lost reading your book. Promising an idyllic experience of staying in hills you could just sit soak in the serenity of nature and get enchanted every moment during your stay here.
Spring is a riot of colors at Gagar. The cottage is surrounded with Rhododendron blooms that show up in bright bursts of red in the adjoining forest whilst peach and apple blossoms flaunt hues of pink and white casting a spell on those who behold the sight. Summers are happy and cheerful, breezy and pleasant, just perfect for exploring the numerous walking trails in the forest. Winters are magical. The little village of Gagar is covered in a sheath of wintery snow. Surreal and truly spellbinding, it is sheer poetry in snow.
