Kuku's Nest began as our family home in the hills — tucked away in a quiet gated colony in Ghorakhal. The lawn is still cared for by my family, and the rooftop remains one of our favourite places for long evenings, mountain air and a cup of chai. Opening our home to guests simply felt right.
Kuku's Nest has always been a pure vegetarian home, with meals prepared in our own kitchen, just the way we eat at home.
I've always believed that the little things make a stay special — whether it's helping you plan your day, sharing directions to Kainchi Dham, arranging an extra quilt on a chilly evening, serving a home-cooked meal, or simply letting you enjoy your chai and the view in peace.
I hope your time at Kuku's Nest feels easy, warm and unhurried — the kind of stay you remember long after you leave. If that sounds like your kind of getaway, we'd love to have you stay with us.

Worth it if you are looking for real pahad sukoon. Rooms are very spacious and the rooftop views are mesmerising.
An amazing stay. The hospitality stands out and the food will make you feel right at home. My parents loved it.
Peaceful, scenic and perfect for a relaxing getaway. The food was delicious and exceeded our expectations.
Staying at Kuku's Nest was an unforgettable experience. I stayed with my family and we had the most amazing time there. The cottage was immaculate and offered views which were absolutely serene.
My stay at Kuku's Nest was a very memorable one. The host was super kind, helpful and very thoughtful, and went extra miles to make our stay comfortable and cozy. The caretaker was very polite and cooked super delicious food.
