The House of Trees – Leh (Nubra Valley)
Address: Teggar Village, Nubra Valley, Leh, Jammu & Kashmir. Nearest airport: Kushok Bakula Rimpochee Airport, Leh (121 km | approx. 3–4 hours by road). Once you arrive, it’s orchards, mountains, and a version of quiet you didn’t realise you needed.
Getting Here
A 9 hour drive from Delhi
It's an easy 450 km ride from Delhi. Just hop in the car, roll down the windows, and let the mountain breeze ruffle your ears. Once you arrive, we'll be waiting with wagging tails and wet-nose welcomes.
Welcome to The House of Trees, a mindful hideaway in Teggar Village, Nubra Valley. Shaped by generations of the Kalon family and brought to life as an eco-resort by Rigzin Kalon. Think conscious luxury done right. Deep respect for Ladakhi culture, thoughtful sustainability, and a setting where orchards, mountains, and silence do most of the talking. You can spot their in-house organic range, Amaley’s™. Made from family orchard produce using heirloom techniques. This is the kind of place that slows your pace, softens your mind, and resets your calendar.
Mud, Stone, Poplar, and a Private Garden
Total Rooms: 17 Cottages | Max Guests
Designed as individual cottages with private sit-outs and gardens. Each cottage is built in local Ladakhi style using mud, stone, and poplar. Connected by a footpath that makes every walk feel like a little nature ritual. Interiors are calming and earthy. White distressed walls, black oxide floors, and wooden ceilings that keep things warm, grounded, and quietly beautiful.
- Freestanding cottages accessed via a footpath, each with a private garden and sit-out
- Private patio/balcony, soothing views, and that Nubra sky that loves to show off at night
- Comfort-forward basics, with modern amenities for a fuss-free stay
Rooms That Tell a Story
Freestanding double-occupancy cottages with a king bed + sunbed, Himalayan views, and a garden door leading to a private terrace under willow shade.
Two interconnected cottages (separated by double doors), each with a king bed that can convert to twins, plus the option to add a third bed.
Orchard-to-Plate, With a Side of Ladakhi Soul
Meals here are rooted in place and made with care. A strong farm-to-table approach and menus that can cover Indian, Continental, Regional, and Vegan preferences (everything except Pan Asian). The on-site restaurant, Saltoro (70 pax), is where your day begins with mountain air and ends with a long dinner you’ll talk about later. Alcohol is BYOB, which means your bottle, their mood lighting.
