Farmstay vacation rentals in Uttarkashi

Lovely if you’re looking for an escape from the usual city life

My wife and I stayed for a night prior to our Har Ki Dun trek. It's a perfect homestay with a traditional family in the heart of Soud village. The room is adjacent to the rooms of other family members and is minimalistic. The view from the common balcony is soothing. The food which was garden fresh and simple was served with lots of love. A big thanks to Devender for all the help, information and assistance. He organized small treks (on payment) and we were escorted by chirpy little teenagers from their family who made it worthwhile. Clarify on the costs of food/trek beforehand in order to avoid surprises. The toilets are not attached with the rooms and theres a fly menace if you eat in the common balcony. All in all an simple yet exotic experience with a beautiful traditional joint family.

Probably the best stay I’ve booked so far. I went with my friends, the place is in the middle of jungle and at the hill top, you need to trek through a trail of 1.2 kms which is beautiful itself. The hosts at zero stays were frequently in contact with us and helped us out with everything also came to receive us. Thanks Amit! The food, cutlery and servive is top notch and will gave you the feel of country style food. PS - Ask them for the hill top mud house, the view is insane. Thank you! Zero Stays for delivering such a great experience that I had to come back and write this review. Cheers

Great hospitality, lots of learning, a great display of various not easily available plants, nature all around. I along my kids really enjoyed my short stay and look forward to meeting them again...!

Staying with Ajay and his family was the best part of our Himachal trip! A lovely wooden cottage facing the mountains with the Baspa flowing below - the location was fantastic. Aunty and Uncle have built a beautiful house and Ajay works very, very hard to maintain it. The family is very warm and eager to help. The home made food is really a treat! Ajay is an exceptional cook. If you are looking for a peaceful tryst with nature, this is the place for you.

Ajay is very friendly and kind . It’s completely safe and secure place for solo travellers. Beautiful surroundings. Food is so amazing and organic. Ajay is full of positive vibes , mother and father is so loving and caring . They gave feeling of parents. Ajay has dog very friendly and obedient .I highly recommend this place and i am again planning to stay this home stay for month or more ..

We recently had the most heartwarming and peaceful stay at Orang Utan Homestay in Gangnani, Uttarakhand, and I can’t recommend it enough. Nestled amidst the serene mountains with breathtaking views of the Ganges and snow-capped peaks, this place feels like a slice of paradise away from the chaos of everyday life. The homestay itself is cozy, clean, and thoughtfully designed to make you feel right at home. But what truly makes this place special is the hospitality. The hosts(Samrat Bhaiya) went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect sharing local stories, and even helping us discover hidden spots around the area. If you're looking for a soulful retreat, with genuine warmth, stunning scenery, and the kind of peace that stays with you long after you've left, Orang Utan Homestay is the place to be.

Do NOT miss out on this lovely little place. This place gives you all that it promises. It is located in a quaint little village, allowing you to be one with nature. At the same time, Anshul and the caretakers have not missed out on any of the modern facilities, and very easy to reach. I look forward to going back soon!

Orangutan is set in the heart of Bhangeli, a small village untouched by city noise. The air is cool, the valley stretches wide, and the snow-capped peaks stand clear in the distance. It’s the kind of place where time moves slower, and the silence feels restful. Samrat, the host, is thoughtful and welcoming. He prepared a wholesome and hearty dinner of organic rice, dal, and halwa, served in a cozy common room stocked with books and board games. Mornings here begin with hot tea or coffee, best enjoyed while taking in the quiet. A few baby goats and friendly pahadi dogs wandered around, making the setting even more idyllic. Breakfast was fresh and wholesome—a smoothie bowl that felt just right for the place. For those looking to explore, a seasoned trekking guide was available to share stories and lead the way through the forest trails above. Whether for rest or adventure, Orangutan is a place that stays with you.

I recently stayed with my family at this homestay in the hills of a small village, & it was an incredible experience. Despite some recent reviews, we decided to give it a try, and I'm so glad we did. The simplicity of everything, including the food made using organic veges was refreshing. The hosts practice minimalism & make use of available resources wisely, given the necessity to travel to another village for groceries. This is a true village life exp, so don't expect the convenience of citylife where everything is easily accessible. Instead, embrace simplicity & beauty surrounding you. For those used to staying in hotels, it's essential to understand the concept of a homestay. This is abt enjoying home-like atmosphere, connecting with the locals & experiencing their way of life. The host Samrat was extremely cooperative, empathetic making us feel like part of their family. His warmth and hospitality truly enhanced our stay.I highly recommend this place.

We spent 5 nights & Diwali in this charming place, exactly as described in the listing and worthy of every great review it has received. Aseem & Neetu Verma manage the place very professionally with much consideration to comfort, cleanliness & aesthetics. Their personal touches, care for detail and thoughtfulness touched us to the core. Their staff is extremely helpful and pleasant, rooms are very comfortable, view is great from the balcony & we were treated to delicious, large spread of food, prepared hygienically with fresh local produce, all served with love. Inclusion in their Diwali festivities & fireworks (without any additional charge) made us feel like family & shows their large heartedness and genuine love for people. Thank you Aseem and Neetu for creating this haven. Your efforts, passion and fidelity towards your mission is heart-warming and your journey is inspiring. We hope to visit again soon. Everyone, look no further; Brigadier’s Cottage encapsulates a perfect getaway!

Pros: 1. Sparkling clean 2. Secluded place 3. Super quiet 4. Having 2 house helps 5. Food cooked by the cook was delicious 6. Host is very responsive Cons: 1. Located far away from Chandigarh or Shimla 2. It took us 9 hours to reach this place from Chandigarh 3. Have to depend on their kitchen for food as there's nothing closeby 4. There's no dedicated drawing room in the property. They have decorated the corridor or the lobby area as the drawing room.

I had the perfect getaway at this mountain Airbnb! The surroundings were so peaceful no traffic, just nature. There were a few lovely hiking spots nearby, which was a nice bonus. The in-house cook made some amazing home-cooked meals that really hit the spot. Big shoutout to Dholu Bhaiya, the caretaker, who was super helpful and made our stay even more enjoyable. It was exactly the break I needed from the hustle and bustle of city life. Highly recommend if you’re looking for some quiet time in the mountains!
