Neha Home Stay, Chaukhal
Settled in the quiet and scenic village of Chaukhal, near Kanatal and Mussoorie, Neha Home
Stay is a warm initiative by Suman Pundir and Rajendra Pundir. This husband-wife duo opened
their homestay in 2024, noticing how tourists, families, and corporate travellers were looking for
peaceful, homely stays close to nature.
With encouragement from Himmotthan and inspiration from other successful homestays in the
region, they decided to convert part of their traditional pahadi home into a stay for visitors.
Today, it stands as a simple, neat, and welcoming place where guests are treated like family.
