The Dak Bungalow

About The Dak Bungalow

The Dak Bungalow is an elegant and private retreat that promises you the peace and quiet of a bygone era. Set in the heartland of rural India yet just minutes away from Chandigarh; here is a getaway that’s not just a holiday but an experience you will cherish.It is the perfect getaway from city life!The Dak Bungalow was built in 1987 and has recently been restored. It’s 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. In the Dak Bungalow at Dera Bassi they have recreated in its structural design and in it’s cuisine the ambience and flavour of an era now looked back upon as an era when the pace of life was slow and where you could enjoy life in the beautiful Indian countryside. Lush green fields burgeoning with produce, forests teeming with wild life .. those were the hallmarks of that era and that is what you will find at the Dak Bungalow at Dera Bassi.
