Resturants Near Gurney House

Nainital, Uttarakhand, India
The Former Residence of Jim Corbett: Gurney House holds a significant place in history as the former summer residence of the legendary British hunter, naturalist, and author, Edward James Jim Corbett. Located on Ayarpatta Hill, this charming colonial cottage is a major heritage site in Nainital. Bui lt in 1880, the house was the home of Jim Corbett and his sister Maggie from the early 1900s until 1947, when they left India for Kenya. The house was reportedly built with materials salvaged from his previous dwelling, Ariel, which was dismantled after a landslide. The house is a quaint, picturesque structure surrounded by a lush garden, once maintained by Jim Corbett himself, featuring various shrubs and plants. After the Corbetts departed, the house was purchased by the Dalmia family, who have maintained it as a private residence and a tribute to the conservationist's legacy. While it is a private property, the current owners graciously allow visitors to tour the premises, often offering personalized insights into the life of the famous hunter, particularly by appointment. The house contains a small, private museum featuring some of Jim Corbett's personal memorabilia and achievements, providing a tangible link to the man who became a global icon for wildlife conservation. The quiet, forested location perfectly reflects the author's love for nature and the serenity of the Kumaon hills.
