Tree of Life Grand Oak Manor Binsar
Jhandi Dhar - Binsar Sanctuary Gate Rd, Regariya, Uttarakhand 263601
Nestled amidst the dense oak and rhododendron forests of the Binsar Wildlife Sanctuary, Tree of Life Grand Oak Manor, Binsar is a heritage boutique retreat that offers timeless charm, old-world elegance, and unmatched serenity. Built more than a century ago, this stately colonial-style bungalow was once the residence of the British Commissioner of Kumaon, General Sir Henry Ramsay. Today, it has been lovingly restored and converted into an exclusive hideaway for discerning travelers who want to reconnect with nature, explore the wilderness, and soak in the tranquility of the Himalayas.
Perched at an altitude of around 7,600 feet, the manor overlooks breathtaking views of the Kumaon hills and snow-clad Himalayan ranges. The surrounding Binsar Wildlife Sanctuary is home to over 200 species of birds, leopards, barking deer, Himalayan black bears, and countless flora, making it a paradise for nature lovers, birdwatchers, and wildlife enthusiasts. Unlike crowded hill stations, Binsar remains untouched, offering travelers a chance to experience peace, solitude, and raw natural beauty.
Whether you are planning a romantic getaway, a family holiday, or a solo retreat, Tree of Life Grand Oak Manor brings together history, comfort, and eco-conscious hospitality in the most enchanting way.
Heritage Charm with Modern Comfort :
One of the most unique aspects of Tree of Life Grand Oak Manor is its heritage character. Unlike modern resorts, this property exudes the charm of the colonial era. The architecture, wooden interiors, high ceilings, and vintage décor take you back in time. Every corner of the manor tells a story, from its antique furniture to old photographs that narrate the history of the region.
The boutique retreat features nine well-appointed rooms, each designed with simplicity and elegance. Rooms come with wooden flooring, period-style furnishings, and large windows that allow plenty of natural light while offering panoramic views of the forest or mountains. The absence of loud televisions and urban distractions ensures that you reconnect with yourself and nature. Instead, you wake up to the chirping of birds and the rustling of leaves – a luxury that city life rarely allows.
Dining with a View :
The in-house dining experience at Grand Oak Manor is intimate and soulful. The property has a cozy dining area where guests are served freshly prepared meals. The cuisine is a mix of Indian and continental, prepared with locally sourced ingredients and a touch of Kumaoni flavors. Imagine sipping hot masala chai while looking out at mist-laden hills or enjoying a candlelit dinner under a starlit sky – every meal here feels special.
