Whether it’s the gentle rustle of leaves, birdsong in the morning, or stargazing at night, the outdoor experience here is just as special as the cottage itself.

Our story

This side of the mountains is different.

Most people visit Manali and see it from a hotel window — mountains framed in glass, valley obscured by traffic. The Other Side was built for a different kind of traveller. One who wakes up to birdsong instead of an alarm, who walks among apple blossoms instead of queuing for cable cars, who would rather sit with a cup of chai under a plum tree than check into another resort.

Nestled in the Kullu-Manali valley on 2.5 acres of private orchard land, The Other Side is a small estate with two distinct stays — a 2-bedroom cottage for families and groups, and an intimate stone-and-wood room for couples and solo wanderers. The land belongs to the hills. You're just fortunate enough to visit.

In their words.

We came expecting a nice cottage. We stayed longer than planned. The orchard, the silence, the mountains just sitting there every morning — it changes something in you. Shivanjali thought of everything.

Shivanjali has opened her family's orchard estate as a place for people who need to slow down. She responds to every message personally, within the hour, every day. The property also comes with two residents: Duke, a German Shepherd, and Cooper, a Beagle — both very enthusiastic about guests.
