LohonoStays Harmukh Houseboat

Anchored on the bank of the idyllic Nigeen Lake, Harmukh Houseboat is anything but a standard holiday home. Traditional wood-panelled interiors, opulent ceilings, intricately carved details and plush hand-woven carpets give you a glimpse of Kashmir’s rich heritage. Comprising two comfortable ensuite bedrooms, a marvellous dining room and a large living room, the home is ideal for small groups. A cup of hot Kashmiri Kahwa in hand, take in splendid views of the lake and mountains from the front balcony or pick up local goods from passing shikaras. Head up to the deck to lounge with your loved ones, read a book or simply marvel at the glorious view. Satiate your palate with freshly prepared meals offered on the houseboat or head out to get a taste of Srinagar’s local culture. Visit the many beautiful gardens and monuments, trek paths offering picturesque panoramas, shop at the local markets and of course, ride a shikara on Dal Lake. You can also explore nearby destinations like Gulmarg, Sonamarg and Pahalgam to immerse yourself in Kashmir’s breathtaking natural beauty.
