The Judge's
Court is a 300 year old ancestral home that has been restored using
original techniques but with modern plumbing and lighting. The
property became famous as 'Judge Sahib Ki Kothi', and hence it came
to be known as The Judge's Court. Located near the village courtyard
with ornamental tank, and approached by a cobbled street, this
courtyard has captured its original era, offering an unusual
intimacy in the midst of a medieval village.
It has a
private suite with a kitchen, sitting room, dressing room and study
with an open terrace overlooking the Dhauladhar
mountains.
In keeping
with his pre-eminent status, Justice Sir Jai Lal built the splendid
manor at Pragpur. The building designed in the best Indo-European
tradition was constructed by his father Bhandari Ram Kuthiala and
completed in 1918. It stands on an 8 acre orchard, just a short walk
from the village courtyard

The orchard
consists of mango, lychee, grape, plum, parsimon, citrus and exotic
trees like camphor, clove and cardamom. The milk and dairy products
used in the kitchen come from The Judge's Court dairy in the
grounds. Water is exclusively piped from an ancestral mountain
spring
The Judge's
Court has 10 rooms in this larger building, one twin sharing set in
an annexe in addition to the suite in the ancestral courtyard. The
rooms go by names such as the 'Dhauladhar', 'Kipling', 'Hardinge',
'Kangra', and are tastefully decorated in simple elegance. As the
Judge's Court has been restored, and is being run by the owning
family, it offers a rare kind of intimate
hospitality |
