  • Above the bustle of Mussoorie, Landour is a quiet, colonial-era cantonment area where time slows down and every bend smells of pine. It’s a small, walkable town — wonderfully preserved — which also means there are only a handful of places to stay.

And while many properties may say “Landour,” they’re often closer to (or actually in) Mussoorie which is not quite the same vibe.

Here are a few stays that are truly in Landour - perfect for a two-night stay👇
🏡 La Villa Bethany (where we stayed)
🌲 Devdar Woods
🪵 Rokeby Manor
☀️ Light of Landour
🛖 Doma’s Inn

Bookmark this for your next quiet mountain escape.

  • Did I go to Landour for the views and the weather? Of course.

Did I come back with a box of madeleines, luxury bath soaps, and a fridge magnet stash built on tradition (and guilt gifting)? Also, yes.

Landour isn’t exactly a shopping destination, but somehow, I ended up with a bunch of little things that feel like big memories — a postcard I’m planning to frame, peanut butter I’m eating straight from the jar, and those fancy Himalayan face creams I stole from my homestay.

Swipe to see what made its way back home with me.

I usually enjoy trying local food when travelling. I respect local tastes and rarely dislike anything. But there was this one time—in recent memory—I made a month-ahead reservation at Casa Botin in Madrid, one of the oldest restaurants in the world, founded in 1725. Back in the day, it was one of Ernest Hemingway’s favourite spots to eat. I went to try their classic cochinillo asado (roast suckling pig) with potatoes, cooked in a 300-year-old wood-fired oven.

Honestly, it didn’t work for me. It was bland and underwhelming. The artichoke hearts with ham were okay-ish, but the dish I ended up loving was something else entirely—which wasn’t why I went there. The gambas al ajillo—prawns cooked in sizzling garlic and oil, mopped up with some bread on the side. It was beautiful.

In hindsight, I don’t regret going. I’m not disappointed that my expectations weren’t met. Not every meal will be amazing, but every one tells a story. And that’s part of the joy of travel when you show up with curiosity.

Did I go to Landour for the views and the weather? Of course.

Did I come back with a box of madeleines, luxury bath soaps, and a fridge magnet stash built on tradition (and guilt gifting)? Also, yes.

Landour isn’t exactly a shopping destination, but somehow, I ended up with a bunch of little things that feel like big memories — a postcard I’m planning to frame, peanut butter I’m eating straight from the jar, and those fancy Himalayan face creams I stole from my homestay.
