Six shapes of stay
Not upgrades.
Just combinations
that worked.
None of these contain anything you could not have anyway. They exist because guests kept asking us to assemble the days for them, and after ten years we know which assemblies work.
Read this first
What a package is and is not here
It is not a paywall
Every walk, every cooking session, every farm morning and the telescope are included in the plain room rate as well. A package does not unlock anything. It simply means somebody has thought about the order.
It is a shape, not a schedule
The weather will rearrange any of these within twenty-four hours of your arrival, and we will let it. What the package guarantees is that the elements are budgeted for and the car is booked.
The price includes the driving
This is the only real difference. Long drives — Chaukori, the caves, the river — cost money because we pay a driver. In a package they are already in the number.
All six
Every package
Prices are for the stated number of guests, all meals included, in shoulder season. Peak season adds roughly eighteen per cent; monsoon takes about twelve per cent off.

In detail
What each one actually contains
Written out properly, because a bulleted list on a card is not enough to decide by.
01
The Long Weekend — 3 nights
Arrive by evening on day one, two full days, leave after breakfast on day four. It is the minimum that works and we do not sell shorter. One sunrise, one long walk, one cooking session, one afternoon in which you do nothing at all and find it uncomfortable.
02
The Slow Week — 6 nights
The package we recommend and the one two thirds of guests choose. Six nights is the point at which people stop checking their phones — we have watched it happen enough times to say it with confidence.
03
Stillness — 6 nights, solo
Built for one person. Yoga on the upper terrace at 6.30, guided forest bathing, three mornings in which nobody will speak to you before eleven, and a kitchen that leans lighter and more ayurvedic than usual.
04
The Month — 28 nights
For people working remotely. The Valley Room or the Cottage, fibre with 4G failover, laundry twice a week, and weekends planned by us if you want them planned.
05
Dark Sky — 3 nights
Timed to the new moon, which is why these dates are fixed rather than flexible. Two telescope nights, astrophotography basics, and a deliberately late-shifted day so that nobody is tired at midnight.
06
Ridge to River — 7 nights
Six graded walks from three to eighteen kilometres, building to a high-meadow overnight above 3,000 m. Opens in May when the snow clears and closes in November.
We booked the Slow Week because we could not face planning anything. By the fourth day we had abandoned the plan entirely and nobody minded, which I think was the actual point.
The numbers

Booking a package
Four steps
The same process as any other stay. There is no separate packages portal because there is no portal.
Say which one, and roughly when
Two lines is enough. If you are between two, say so and we will tell you which fits your dates.
We check the weather odds
Dark Sky needs a new moon. Ridge to River needs the snow gone. We will not sell you a package your dates cannot deliver.
Thirty per cent to confirm
UPI or bank transfer. The rest on arrival.
We book the cars
Any driving in your package is arranged before you land, not on the morning.
Or tell us what you actually want
Every package on this page started as somebody's specific request. If none of them fit, describe the trip you have in mind and we will price it.
