We recently got back from the cottage. We were there to celebrate our anniversary week. The location is beautiful, the road has recently made its way to the village. You have to drive down approximately 11km from the main highway to reach there. After parking your vehicle you have to walk downhill for about 100m to reach the guest house. I would highly recommend this place for a do-nothing break, there is no one to disturb you. Just pack your bag, take a couple of books and enjoy the sun light or evening bon-fire. You are going to love it. We stayed there for 3 nights following the same theme
The house is very tastefully restored to its original beauty and the original element is kept intact. Wooden floor, outer stone structure, beautiful wood work on the windows / doors and pillers was pleasing to the eyes
I spent almost a month here, hiking to different villages and exploring this beautiful valley. Everybody at Saur Cottages was super friendly and I was lucky to be able to spend so much time there. The food and tea was also delicious! The room was comfortable as well. Thanks everyone at Saur Cottages!
Firstly kudos and hats off to the guys who have pulled this off…don’t read any review just land there and you are transported to heaven…can’t stop raving about the place the location, the property, the people, and everything around is just out of this world…trust me have travelled to the best to the best of hospitality places but have experienced nothing like this…have come back weighing two kgs extra just beware of the yummy food Sanjay cooks you can’t stop eating…the girl team(fellow fellowshipers) revati and lipi were super duper and what a blast we had…if you haven’t gone there stop reading and just go…
Saur village was this tiny place tucked away for soul wanderers. It’s intimate and far away from the world. Mud cottages, green fields, mountains, a few faraway abandoned huts, temples and a tiny village at a distance, winding paths which take you into the being of the forest….it all adds to the mystique. Just the kind of place i wanted to be in. We travelled in a group, a Capoeira workshop, so it was perfect for us. The stay at the cottages was insanely refreshing. The humble home cooked food is something which left us wanting more.. Must mention the excellent service by the staff there. The bonfire, the starry experience… Simply, a beautiful stay. Can’t wait to go back.
Coupla hours away from D’dun and a sub 8 hour drive from Delhi, Saur Cottages turned out to be quite the hidden gem. We discovered some amazing trails dotted with a rivulet, ate some incredible fresh food cooked (by their staff) with veggies freshly plucked from their very own garden, and absolutely adored the peace and tranquility- which was conducive to some great conversation.
Great cottages- after all the hikes and the food, we slept like babies- only to be woken up to freshly cooked eggs! Staff was fantastic- they displayed the highest standards of hospitality! All in all, a great eco-tourism retreat.
An amazing place with a view to match. You can go for treks or just sit around in the sun reading with no one around to bother you. Was amazed to see so many different species of birds, if you’re lucky you can spot an animal bounding up a hill side oh and the goats are very friendly! The food was simple and tasty, there are no shops in the village so carry everything you think you’d need. Would definitely recommend the place to people who want to get away from the city and go somewhere without tourists or any sort of commercialization. Also getting there is pretty easy from Delhi
An ideal place in a remote village amidst nature and away from the hustle & bustle of city life is what I can say about this unique destination. One can just unwind..be it the early morning trekking around the cottage or having a stroll in the nearby fields. The chirping sounds of variety of birds early in the morning and an air of calmness gives you a heavenly feeling. Friendly staff to take care of all your needs and offering sumptuous food. If you are looking for a mall road or a shopping paradise or a cyber cafe ……this is not the place for you. If not, just go and live to experience…
