Himalayan Retreat in the times of Social Distancing

The world has been brought to a standstill by the pandemic, Covid-19. While human activity has come down to the bare minimum, there have been incidents of wildlife and nature reclaiming the earth. As nature lovers rejoice, many businesses and communities deal with the impact.

We at Jilling terraces are in the happy position of offering you a safe home away from home. Come stay with us as we watch nature rejuvenate herself.

Jilling Terraces, located in the foothills of the Himalayas in the Kumaon region of Uttarakhand, just an 8 hour drive from Delhi/NCR, is a sensible place to spend me time or family time. 

Set amidst more than a  100 acres of untouched forests, making the 5 people living there to run the home stay the  only humans in a 1km radius. The setting ensures an abundance of clean air and mineral rich water from the natural springs.
