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

Discover a truly boutique living experience at Nayalap.

Celebrate an anniversary or a birthday. Celebrate life in a place where nature lives.

Join us for a pottery retreat. Or one involving permaculture. Or one involving history. Or one involving alfresco cooking.

  • 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?

  • The last of the monsoons are a prelude to autumn. You can see the Kans starting to flower, the horse gram getting ready, the last of the flower, and the first of the peaks.

If all that you are doing is running to achieve quarter end targets, and all that you want to do is finish that series or that book,
while sipping on fresh thatwani, 
with the sound of rain on oak as asmr,
And waiting for some sauteed fiddlehead ferns,

  • Life's many adventures are best enjoyed with some company - the company of self or of someone else. To enjoy sunrises together. To enjoy some chai together. To leave work and phones and just see the world in the distance. To walk together and sit together.

Nayalap is proud to be chosen by this happy couple to decide on their life's next big adventure and for their sunrise proposal. We wish them all the best.

  • Forage if you have a forest nearby. Go for chestnuts in the winter. Or raspberries in the summer. Bayberries when it's dry and warm. Fiddlehead ferns when it's wet and cool.

Go for the pine nuts, the Morels,  the Rhododendron flowers. Go for the Kilmora and the Ghingaroo. Nature is bountiful, and a visit to the forests of shitlakhet will show you how generous she is.

The last of the monsoons are a prelude to autumn. You can see the Kans starting to flower, the horse gram getting ready, the last of the flower, and the first of the peaks.

If all that you are doing is running to achieve quarter end targets, and all that you want to do is finish that series or that book,
while sipping on fresh thatwani, 
with the sound of rain on oak as asmr,
And waiting for some sauteed fiddlehead ferns,
Then DM.
