Arustic yet regal accommodation that is comfortably luxurious is what Ramgarh Heritage is all about (off Chandigarh, bordering Panchkula, not to be confused with Ramgarh Fort!).
The 325-year-old structure, a haveli, has all the temptations a luxury boutique heritage hotel should have.
Seven generations of the family have lived here and currently the son of Sardar Sahib Tikka Jagjit Singh (1954-2001), Sardar Sahib Jagdeep Singh, has opened up their luxurious house for travellers, aided by his son, Jaideep. Since the family wanted to keep the charm of the place intact and retain the originality, almost all the furniture, artefacts and utensils from their historical lineage have been used for decoration around the property.
