Housed in an apple orchard built on the principles of Natural farming practices, our family-run holistic residency in Himachal, The Shilaroo Project provides restful accommodations ranging from private rooms to shared living options. As well as, wholesome and nutritious farm-fresh vegetarian meals with panoramic views of the Churdhar range.\nIn this room, the bathrooms are not attached to the room but are located just outside. The space The main building of the Shilaroo Project is located in a corner of the farm to maximize the amount of land left over for agriculture waste-water treatment, rain-water harvesting systems, solar energy-driven backup, and the pottery studio. To passively heat the building, it is oriented such that it faces south by south-west to receive the maximum amount of sun. To further help with heating, the extensive use of glass ensures that the building remains warm even in the peak of winter without any active heating. The material palette of exposed brick, terracotta, and wood lent it additional visual warmth. The private spaces include two private double rooms (with en-suite facilities), a third private room for three people, with non-attached bathrooms, and a five people dormitory-styled room with attached bathrooms. Each room comes with individual sit-outs overlooking the Churdhar Range. These rooms are ideal for individuals, couples, or small groups, looking for a quiet and speculative time. Each room is amply furnished with easy chairs, cupboards, a dressing table, and a drop-down table on the balcony. There are several common areas in the building that the guests are welcome to explore during their stay. The expansive lounge adjacent to the kitchen is always a favorite for conversations, playing board games, or simply savoring the panoramic views on the wooden swing. The lounge leads to a community dining area to encourage wholesome social interactions among the guests. For those looking to work or use their time creatively, the generous attic library is the ultimate space filled with a variety of books, art supplies, easels, sunlight, and mountain vistas. We offer Complimentary breakfast. Lunch and dinner, snacks, and beverages are offered at an added cost. A cafe will open up soon on the property in 2025! Guest access As the property is located on an apple orchard, we encourage the guests to spend time outdoors on the farm, taking in the clean mountain air along with the views. The guests will also have access to our warm and bright attic/library for quiet, creative, reflective or simply some sleepy times. The lounge/ living and the dining area on the ground floor is a crowd favorite and usually the meeting point for guests to interact or play some indoor games with each other along with a cup of our freshly brewed in house herbal teas and snacks. Other things to note In this room, the bathrooms are not attached to the room but are located just outside. Our staff members and people working and living on the property are fully vaccinated! We understand food's importance in our daily lives especially on vacations.
