About us

Our Home Stay

JollyRogers ~ Mission Accomplished ~ is a childhood dream come true! To own a Himalayan cottage.

View the sun rise across Trishul range; while still in bed. Trust us, it is nature at its best! Quiet & chirpy. Imagine valley as the canvass, clouds-the brushes & Sun bringing in the hues. The view changes by the hour!

Why Jolly Rogers? Navy term -In today’s era, a ship returning to harbour post completing its mission flies a JollyRogers Flag on her yardarm. Can accomodate more folks too!

The Space

A cottage with two levels and two guest rooms.

We personally like waking up to see the wooden roof, view of Trishul, sunrise – all from our bed. For genZ, we have a small TT table – our daughter wished to have one; so that she is busy when we have our afternoon siesta. Dad likes a recliner, so that was thrown in. Large TV with Netflix & stable fibre Internet … Oh there is lots more, let it be a bit of a surprise.

Guest Access

What’s hills without some ups & down. Do expect to walk these. It is a part of the ‘feel’.

It is best to drive your own car or use a taxi.

Other things to note

JR is off Ranikhet – Almora National Highway; between Babarkhola & Kadhpudi. 100 mtr of inclined access road connects JR with NH.
The adventure of the hills road for you! Some of my driving skills were put to test in our initial days.
