In the early 1900s, a British Major sought solace in the misty hills of Kumaon, laying the foundation for what would become the Jilling Estate
—a sprawling estate that thrived for decades.

When Ms. Radhika Bhati encountered the land decades later, they saw not relics but potential. Acre by acre, they replanted 8,000 native trees, cleared invasive species, and stepped back as rhododendrons and oaks reclaimed their throne. Today, 80% of this land thrives untamed, where leopard tracks mark trails and guests don’t just visit—they bear witness to nature’s quiet triumph.

Founder's Vision
Founder's Vision
A Simple Promise:
Let the Land Lead
For over 20 years, the Bhati family has worked to undo, not build. They’ve replaced colonial-era tea fields with native oaks, rewilded 80% of the estate, and designed every guest experience around one question: “Does this help the forest thrive?” The result? A sanctuary where your morning chai comes with Himalayan thrush songs, and every trail reminds you that humans are visitors here—not owners.
