The WoodVista Cottages are situated in a little offbeat village - Bakhog - in the Theog District in Shimla, Himachal. It is a serene location tucked away from the hubbubs and the rush of the now very commercial city of Shimla. Being around 25 kilometers from the Shimla, the approach involves a bit of an off road drive (approximately 20 minutes from the main highway) - but something easily manageable in any vehicle - even if you drive a sedan. Reaching there, you will find a warm welcoming reception from happy to help people - the friendly estate manager, Vikas and his excellent team of associates (especially Neha and Goldie). The whole estate is surrounded by a beautifully maintained garden of indigenous mountain flora, and lot of sprawling, natural jungles all around. And not to forget the abounding apple trees! For your stay, they have the option of 7-8 cottages, each built using specific types of wood and aptly named as well - the cottages have had their fair share of hosting several celebrities too! Ask Vikas and he will surely have some stories to share! Also, some of their cottages have duplex setups ***** with kitchenettes too - if you want to do some home cooking while on vacation. Taking about fun - they have something to keep your family members engaged - like cycling, Badminton and even a snooker table! They also provide free Internet (Wi-Fi) with good enough speeds (workation anyone?). And if you are the adventurous kind, exploring around is mighty fun as there are many trails to take and every day can be a different journey. Mind you, it is essentially a jungle all around, so keep walking and you can never know what you find! But if you are here just to relax, have some quiet time, maybe catch up on your yesterdays with your drive-along-friends (over beer of course), that’s fine too! Sit outside in the wide open porch and chat under the stars with your favorite drinks in hand! Not to mention, they also have some highly skillful folks in the kitchen, who work their magic with fresh, home grown vegetables, fresh picked and grounded spices, and dishes ranging from the awesome Pahadi Chicken - a local delight for the chicken lovers and for the vegetarians - the excellent Paneer Lababdar! So plan your one true chance to be one with nature. Welcome to your calling!
