Located just 7 kilometres away from the hill station of Almora, Kalmatia Sangam is for those looking for something different. The resort combines local charm with international service to create a retreat like none other.
Offering ten cottages built in a style which marries the British with the Kumaoni, these are made of stone and wood, white and maroon in colour, resplendent against the green, green backdrop and warmed by traditional stoves.
You can go for village walks, eat international cuisine at the superb in-house restaurant which also serves as an art gallery or simply bask in the sun staring at the snow-peaks. This is an out-and-out retreat.
