About Us

Where Heritage Meets Modern Mountain Living

Tinan Khar is not just a place—it’s a story retold in stone, wood, and soul. Located in GondhlaVillage, on land passed down through generations, this modern retreat draws from authentic Kathkuni architectural elements—locally sourced timber, dry stone layering done over 5 years, and harmonious design that sits lightly on the land. We invite you to experience a new form of mountain hospitality: personal, immersive, and rooted in place.
