Our Story

Step Inside Apple Grove

Handpicked Homes · Heartfelt Hospitality

Tucked away in the peaceful and beautiful Bhaderwah Valley, our traditional three-bedroom Kashmiri home offers a warm and comfortable stay in one of India’s most untouched and serene destinations. Designed with soft carpets, floor seating, and a cozy, homely feel, it’s the perfect place to relax and unwind with family and friends.

Our home is surrounded by lush green hills, fresh mountain air, flourishing apple orchards, and organic farming in our back garden. In the summer, you can stroll through the orchards, sip tea under the trees, and enjoy the greenery all around. In winter, the landscape transforms into a quiet, snow-covered wonderland - peaceful and magical.

Guests are welcome to explore the orchards and the organic gardens, enjoy quiet walks, or simply relax outdoors with a cup of noon chai or kehwa, soaking in the natural beauty. Whether you're visiting during the vibrant summer or the calm of winter, the experience is refreshing and memorable.

Inside, we offer a charming living room in traditional Kashmiri style, complete with warm carpets, cushions, and floor seating. It’s a cozy space where everyone can gather, share stories, and enjoy hearty meals or a typical Kashmiri high tea together. It's the perfect setting to create lasting memories with your loved ones.

At Sama Homestays, we believe the best stays are the ones that feel unhurried and personal — mornings filled with natural light, quiet surroundings, and spaces that help you truly disconnect.

We thoughtfully curate homes that are more than just places to stay. Each property carries its own character, shaped by its location, its design, and the stories around it. Every SAMA stay is about comfort, calm, and a genuine connection to the place you're in.
