Eagle's Nest Cottage 1880

A 19th-century mountain sanctuary steeped in charm and solitude.

Perched high above the valleys of Himachal Pradesh, Eagle’s Nest Cottage 1880 is an exquisite heritage hideaway that transports you to a quieter time. Built in the late 19th century, this lovingly restored stone-and-wood cottage is surrounded by deodar forests, echoing silence, and sweeping views of the Himalayas. With only a handful of rooms, it offers rare privacy, timeless elegance, and an atmosphere of soulful retreat.

Highlights

Where history, wilderness, and warmth embrace you.

Originally a colonial-era residence, the cottage retains its old-world character—crackling fireplaces, creaky wooden floors, and bay windows that open onto cedar-scented breezes. Whether you’re curled up with a book by the hearth, sipping tea as clouds roll across the peaks, or taking long walks on forest trails, every moment here is steeped in stillness and story.
