Nestled in the Mid- Himalayan ranges of Pir-Panjal and Dhauladhar, just half way between Kullu and Manali on the left bank of the river Beas is a tiny hamlet known as Naggar. The idea was not to build another resort but to do something different, something that would make everyone feel right at home comforted, secured and content.
Meet The Family
Born and brought up in the valley of earthly delights, a paradise of eternal sunshine where healing herbs and fragrant flowers grew in abundance, Mr. Bhuvneshwar Dutt Sharma passionately an orchardist believes in simple living & high thinking. A progressive farmer of Kullu valley served the various segments of the society at various levels as a “Sarpanch” ( President ) of the Gram Panchayat for more than a decade.
Mrs. Sushma, the better half of Mr. Sharma not only owes the responsibility of household activities but also assisted her husband in several social welfare activities and also served as the “Sarpanch” of Naggar and surrounding villages.
Chandan, the elder son in the family, inspired and motivated by the Himalaya, a qualified mountaineer got & gained all kind of inspirations and entrepreneurship from the mighty Himalaya. … Exposed at different levels of tourism, started his trekking company in 1998 which is now known as Up North.
Believing in him, family, friends and drawing imagination from Himalaya, serene environs & doing something different in hospitality industry he decided to construct cottages in the vicinity of his house so that he could share the ambience of nature besides giving the guests a homely atmosphere and thus serving them with local delicacies, a feel of local culture, custom and heritage of the area through a tiny hamlet known as Naggar in Kullu valley. Mother Nature’s rhythmic song of whistling air among the apple orchards & deodar trees and tops. It was this feeling that charmed Chandan to name his cottages as ‘Treetops cottage’.
