NotOnMap - Barahbeesh Villa
Description
The Barahbeesh Villa is located in the quaint village of Kathasu, in the Pabbar Valley of Jubbal, Himachal Pradesh. Lying in the rich belt of Apple cultivation, the house is the oldest house of the region. Built of traditional style, each corer in the house is uniquely crafted, and has a story to tell. Located at the centre of the village, it commands breath taking views of the mountains. The space Homestays like the Barahbheesh Villa are an experience in itself. One can spend a whole day relaxing in the lap of nature, in the old wooden structure. Once you get enough of it, one can go to treks around the village – like the Kuppad trek, Giriganga trek, the trek to Mural, and the famous Chanchal trek. All these are one-day treks, about 3 kms each, taking you to peaks through diverse mountainous landscapes. Other experiences for the travellers could be assisting the hosts in learning the rural way of living – their agricultural practices, milking the cows, and learning more about their lifestyle along the way. Such places serve as a good break from the hectic schedules of our daily lives – and teach us so much about some new cultures at the same time! There is a village temple, where one is allowed to visit till the porch only. Fishing can also be arranged for, on demand. There is cultivation of Apples, ‘Parsiman’ (Japenes Apples), plums, Apricots, Cherries, Peaches. Pulses, corn, Jowar, Bajra, and Organic vegetables (almost all). As the host rightly puts it, one can never get enough of the place!
