Our Castle and Cottages in Manali are located in the midst of apple and cherry orchards, with our own al fresco swimming pool, a convenient twenty minutes walk from the town centre. Built in the Victorian Gothic Revival style and perched at an elevation of 2003 metres, The Himalayan is flanked by the Dhungri forest overlooking resplendent snow capped mountain peaks and waterfalls plunging down rock faces. The Himalayan�s privileged setting is only appropriate and its distinct atmosphere suggests refinement and �lan. The very idea of The Himalayan, encapsulates pragmatic requirements with the nature and eccentricity of a Victorian escapade. At The Himalayan, grandeur, elegance and style have conspired to create intimacy and warmth without pretension. The Himalayan�s fine blend of inimitability and characteristic English quality will find appeal with connoisseurs of tradition, looking for a difference. Like the gentleman who sports jauntily-coloured braces beneath his conservative tweed suit or harbours a penchant for embroidered silk pyjamas, The Himalayan is proud of its individuality but doesn�t scream it.
