Stok House Is The Perfect Getaway In The Heart Of Ladakh's Mountains

Shireen Jamooji

Pristine forests and snow capped peaks, Leh is a truly remarkable place to visit and if you want to get the most out of your trip the place to stay is without a doubt Woodyvu Stok House. The five-bedroom villa is located in Stok village, about 12 kilometres away from the main town, and this luxurious abode is perfect for a tranquil getaway.

Each of the five rooms is unique but the Khardungla suite deserves a special mention for its breathtaking views of the mighty Khardungla Pass. The Stok suite overlooks the summit of Mt. Stok on one side and the monastery on the other. The Willow suite is on the ground floor and opens up into a serene Willow Grove. The Apricot suite is more commonly known as the glass room because this East facing suite has one and a half walls of glass from which to admire the stunning views.

All the rooms are decorated in bright colours inspired by the vivacity of the mountains. Being in a village, you also get the opportunities to sample authentic cuisine and learn about the ways of the village. The whole air of Stok House is one of luxury and peace, which makes it a wonderful way to explore the intricacies of daily Ladhaki life. In short, stop wasting your time day-dreaming and get serious about your summer vacation plans.
