About Us

The Dak bungalow was built in 1987 and has recently been restored. Its character is essentially colonial. The mud and tile roof is still in the old style of the early 20th century. This keeps the rooms well insulated so they’re remarkably cool in the summer months and warm and snug in winter. As in most Dak bungalows of old, it is a single-story structure. The Dak Bungalow at Dera Bassi is perfectly located and easily accessible. We are just 15 minutes away from Chandigarh and an easy three and a half-hour drive from Delhi.

So come and share a bit of unspoilt India. An India where lush farmlands rich with seasonal produce, lovely forests with an abundance of flora and fauna and birds and animals abound. All this and more at the Dak Bungalow where we take you back to an era where hospitality and warmth were taken for granted and the pace of life was slow and leisurely.
