Pragpur, Indian Himalayas, India
On the edge of Pragpur village in the Shivalik Hills of Himachal Pradesh stands a stately manor house, built by a local judge in 1918 and now run as a charming country hotel. Once within its walls, you enter a parallel world reminiscent of a bygone era, where breakfast is served under a mango tree in the garden by liveried staff, and supper is preceded by a leisurely “cocktail hour” on the lawn. As a waystage on a long journey north across the Himalayas, or as a last taste of the hills before returning to the plains, Judge’s Court offers an elegant, relaxing retreat.
