Gurney House Tourism

Gurney House is a historic colonial cottage in Nainital, Uttarakhand, India, that formerly belonged to Jim Corbett, a British hunter, naturalist, and writer, best known for hunting man-eating tigers and leopards in India. Situated near the Naini Lake, this iconic house is now a private residence, but it allows visitors to explore the living museum it's now transformed into, showcasing Corbett's memorabilia. This includes his books, photographs, personal belongings, and antiques providing a glimpse into his life and times. The quaint cottage is surrounded by lush greenery and offers a serene atmosphere. The charm of the house is retained through its British-era architecture, with wooden floors, fireplaces, and an array of Corbett's belongings that lend it an air of historical significance. It’s a treat for history buffs and those interested in wildlife conservation.
