Why stay at Kalmatia Sangam...
Location:
Just 7km above the main town center of Almora is Kalmatia Sangam. This
grand heritage property is some 125km from the nearest airport at Pantnagar
and about 90km from the Kathgodam railway station.
The Kalmatia Sangam Heritage lore:
The once abode of a British Captain E.S. Jackson, this piquant heritage
property was brought by the District Commissioner of Kumaon and still owned
and maintained by his daughter and her German husband.
Accommodation at the Kalmatia Sangam:
The building and the architecture is a blend of the East and the West and
the 9 rooms are each unique and special. The Eagles Nest has an advantage
over the Himalayan Magpie (the stone cottage) when it comes to the Himalaya
vista. The twin Pheasant Cottages share the same balcony and open to the
rising sun in the east. The other cozy twin cottages are Hoopoe and
Cuckoo, Goldfinch and Rosefinch. For the Almora foothill view, go for the
Scarlet Minivet cottage.
Wining and Dining at the Kalmatia Sangam:
The restaurant
Sangam serves multi-cuisine delights. But if you ask
the best serve here, it is undoubtedly Himalayan food. Try the local dishes
and you will want to come back to this place for food, if not for anything
else.
Kalmatia Sangam specials:
You can feast yourself to a replenishing massage session or alternatively,
fish out your favorite novel from the Kalmatia Sangam mini-library. The
Resort also forms an ideal base for treks into the Himalayan region.
