LaHermitage Resort

Nice property for a weekend gateway close to nature.

Nice property for a weekend gateway close to nature.

The setting of LaHermitage resort is very nice! It is literally on the edge of a jungle (Beni forest - part of Corbett) which is both a pro or con for the property. You can enjoy extremely peaceful stay, river/ village walk, services of very nice staff at the resort. But beware it is a lonely place with a real threat of wild animals especially in evening. In fact the resort is in a place Silwar which is over 50 KMs away from main place Lansdowne (a let down for us when we found out after we reached). Resort is at top of a hill and access to main road is a challenge even if you have your own vehicle. Resort will pick guests from a parking area at foot of hill and for every small or big need guest will have to request for a drop off at parking area which btw is 3 -4 kms away from main road (caution - there is jungle on both sides of the road, straying alone is not recommended). Practically you are locked in this tranquil resort which is in a way good but not for long. After spending 3 nights here we decided to move to another resort in main Lansdowne and discovered Silwar war warmer than Lansdowne. My review is just an fyi for tourists (not to demean anyone or the property) -- just trying set the expectations right. Though I still wonder how management managed to put up a resort here! Thanks

The place is very aptly situatedfor people who are looking for peace and solitude. The only sounds you hear is of the chirping birds. No traffic sounds........... the place is very neat and clean with big big rooms. The staff is very courteous specially rajendra and nitin who were very helpful on all occasions. They go out of the way to help you and show you around. A very homely and comfortable atmosphere which has been possible with excellent staff. To top it up the food is also excellent. I would strongly recommend this place for people who are looking for peace and solitude.
