The Property
Built back in 1876, this charming property was originally named “Abbotsford Lodge” and belonged to an Englishman named John Hope Simpson, who served in the Indian Civil Service. In 1903, the Prasada family took over and gave it a new name, “Prasada Bhawan.” Now, the fourth generation of the Prasadas proudly continue the wonderful legacy they’ve built over the years!
Stay either in Apsley House which has four bedrooms in a country house style, or in one of the three rooms in the Wordsworth Cottage (on the ground floor two room are interconnected).
