The grand splendour of mountains complemented by gracious hospitality. When you arrive are at ‘The Terraces’ in the middle of nowhere, it’s only then that you realise the joys of stillness, peace and unsullied beauty. The Terraces, as the name suggests, cascade down the hills on terrace fields giving you awe inspiring views of the valleys and the Himalayas. Clouds brush past by you as you sit at the terrace café and the rooms are done in a rugged stone-and-hearth décor. Tucked in the tiny hamlet of Kanatal, time stands still here and as you start forgetting about your chaos filled existence, life takes over.

USP: Quintessential mountain getaway.
