All combined with the best that Kumaoni cuisine has to offer.

  • The village of Aghar is unique in its own way. Unlike most Kumaoni villages, the houses here are larger, with more floors, winding staircases, for larger and more prosperous families.

Every village here is a discovery and a story waiting to be told. It helps when there's some background music :)

  • Autumns are for those long breakfasts. The ones to gaze into the valleys, to contemplate, to sketch, to chat over. 

Autumns are best enjoyed over unending cups of coffee and lingering breakfasts.

  • A tent just for you.
Amongst oak trees and pine forests.
With reclining chairs to relax in.
With a blue whistling thrush to wake you in the morning.
And a scops owl to keep you company at night.
Under the azure autumn skies,
Is a tent just for you.

  • How to be water:
Inspired by @grantdraws 

- Flow with others.
- Expand yourself.
- Reflect.
- Spiral inward.
- Be still.
- Create a new path.

This autumn, be water while you're at Nayalap.

  • What's happening next month as the last of the clouds start leaving?

The grass will be cut. The cottages will be given a fresh coat of mud. The ramleela will be played. Autumn greens and veggies will be on the menu. Nayalap will prepare for a new addition.

But most importantly,  those long winding, slow, self-indulgent walks will be back. We hope you'll be walking too.
  • It's one of those days. You've traveled all the way to Nayalap only to be rained in. 

It's cool outside and to be honest, you didn't really want to get out of the blankets. 

You just wanted to go through your book the way the rain goes through the day. 

The only distraction would be the clouds outside, being still. The tall trees standing up to them and the small leaves dancing in the rain.

Such long phases of stillness would be punctuated only by the warmth of food - some pahadi rajma in the day and slow cooked mutton in the evening. 

In a Bhaddu - a traditional Kumaoni heavy bell metal vessel known for its ability to add flavour to food -whether that be mutton or dal or pulao. 

Such would be the days. Wouldn't that be a dreamy vacation?
