Step into the palatial home at Peora Estate, and you’d think you might have walked into a farmhouse in Tuscany. All city-like amenities and facilities, and yet being around nature is a luxury for guests.

The architecture of The Orchard is a far cry from the local Himachal-y homes, but still fits into the heavenly surrounds made up of deep cloud-filled valleys. Tall pillars holding up the high-ceilings and the tiles and marble imported from Italy that adorn the floors are the very first tryst with luxury as you enter. Not to mention that the wide verandahs and galleries outside that are the best spot to view to the sweeping vistas of the valley.

Inside the home panders to sensibilities that love luxury. The hallways are over 100 feet long, the rooms are large but intimate, the furniture is especially curated by Warisan (furniture brand) and is made from the highest quality of recycled teak and mahogany. Sustainability lies at the core of Peora’s values; there is solar power for heating, limited use of plastic, rainwater harvesting, compost pit for kitchen waste, Alpine grade water from natural spring in bathrooms and more. 

This is a great place for a luxury escape to the mountains, with minimalistic but comfortable rooms overlooking the hills. There are only 4 rooms, which means that the property is great for a private romantic getaway or a good option for a single family or group. 

Dining at Peora means fresh ingredients from around. You can enjoy a farm to table concept and food available for vegan guests as well. 

Get away to the hills in the embrace of luxury and nature at the same time at Peora Estates, with added experiences like birdwatching, hikes to waterfalls, a visit to ancient temples and Panchachuli, an NGO in Almora dedicated to the social and economic empowerment of women.
