Delhi offers respite in the form of a variety of weekend getaways to hill stations, adventurous camps, heritage hotels and more. From April onwards, when we have to bear the scorching sun, we look for quick and pleasant getaways to hill stations. Nainital is one of the most eminent weekend getaways near Delhi,  but a very few tourists know about Naukuchiatal, a small hill station in Nainital district of Uttarakhand. Popularly known as “lake of nine corners”, Naukuchiatal is famous for its serenity and tranquility. The lush and calm surroundings provide calm moments away from the maddening rush.

If you’re looking for a lavish getaway, away from the crowd, La Belle Vie is the place for you. The villa has a front garden spot where you can relax and read the morning newspaper with a fabulous view of the surrounding lush greenery. It looks like a vintage house, with well-crafted wooden floors and ceilings, antique decor items and accessories. This is one of the most luxurious homestays near Nainital.
