Gastenverblijven in Udham Singh Nagar

Everything was good.... Had an amazing lake view. The last 300m was steep drive, though we enjoyed the ride. Mohit (caretaker) was very helpful and prompt. cook was making limited but good food, as good as home cooked meal. All in all a good experience.

The place is simply awesome. It is located right on top of the hill overlooking the Bhimtal lake. Be prepared for an uphill steep drive to the Magpie Retreat ! It is just a KM, though! Surrounded by lush green forest and with many birds chirping around (Magbie, Treepie, Blue Jay, Paradise Flycatcher, Thrush, Spotted Dove, Plum Headed Parakeet, Grey Headed Canary Flycatcher, etc.) The place is aptly named Magpie Retreat. Certainly carry a good zoom lens and a binocular. One can take strolls around the place. Very serene, calm, peaceful. Ideal location for unwinding. Hosts are very thoughtful. Have taken care of little but important things - Books, Monopoly, Scrabble, Cards, Umbrella, et al. Wonderful caretaker (Mohit). Delicious home made food. In summary, it is worth the vacation and value for money !

Beautiful Location, Picturesque views from the place, exactly as described... Host Neha gave amazing suggestions and Mohit and staff gave excellent service... Food was delicious... Would surely recommend this place to friends !!!

Stay was good. Although restaurant is being set up by host. The property is close to mall road and walk is around 300 m (hill walk). Caretaker and staff was very helpful.
