Phagoli

A small, sustainable homestead in the lower Himalayas.

Born in a remote mountain hamlet, near Shimla Airport, Phagoli is powered by clean mountain energy and guided by a simple idea: to live in harmony with nature and to share the journey with others. Over time, we have grown into a collection of interconnected experiences — a farmstay, a permaculture farm, fresh mountain produce — each rooted in sustainability, simplicity, and mindful living.

Scrumptious food, home-cooked.

Fixed meal system

Three wholesome meals daily. No à la carte or room service — just good, mindful food.

Stone-ground & seasonal

Pahadi gahat dal paranthas, makki ki rotis, jau ki roti, seasonal sabzis, and surprise desserts.

Stories from the hills.

“A painstakingly built stone cottage with an eye to minute details. The deafening silence is full of bird chirps — a little paradise in the otherwise hell-of-a-world.”
