Monthly Rentals in Manasbal Lake

Fozia’s cottage truly lives up to its description and more. This charming little retreat is nestled within a beautifully kept garden, complete with a pergola and a peaceful water fountain right outside—perfect for relaxing mornings or quiet evenings. The cottage is filled with natural light and offers picturesque views from its many windows, so you're always connected to the outdoors. One of its highlights is the cozy attic—a perfect spot to curl up with a book and spend a slow, peaceful day. Located in a clean, serene neighborhood, the cottage is just a 10-minute walk from the lake's edge, making it both tranquil and conveniently placed. Fozia is a thoughtful host who goes the extra mile with her recommendations—she can connect you with a reliable shikhara boatman and a friendly auto driver who offers rides at very reasonable rates. A special touch is the delightful breakfast basket she provides, complete with homemade jams that add a personal and delicious start to the day.

We had a truly lovely stay, and I must say, Rishi is an exceptional host. He went out of his way to ensure that we were comfortable in every possible way. His suggestions for places to visit, dining, and shopping were always spot-on and reliable. The property itself is stunning and well-maintained, offering a peaceful retreat. If you're looking to unwind and escape the hustle and bustle of the city this is the perfect place to relax. Highly recommended!

The place is cozy and well-maintained, making it a great option for a stay with friends or family. Though the food options were limited, everything we ordered was delicious, and the staff was respectful and attentive throughout our stay. The rooms were clean and equipped with heaters, hot water, and electric bed warmers, which made the stay comfortable. However, there were frequent power cuts that occasionally affected access to hot water. Also, keep in mind that the property is located about 30 minutes outside of Srinagar, not within the city itself.

The house is situated at foothills of Sangreshi mountain and the view is so pleasing to eyes especially garnished with the sweet sounds of birds in early morning. As mentioned in listing it is 25 Kms from Airport and takes an hour to reach as the traffic woes are everywhere. Kousar Aunty’s homemade and simple food was amazing and we loved it all. Our return flight was at 7:50 AM in morning and we had to leave by 5:15 AM and Kousar Aunty gave some some packed Sandwiches which we enjoyed at Airport. Really appreciated her waking up so early for us. Mr. Bashir arranged our Cab and I must say the Cab guy was perfect and least annoying and never cribbed for any extended time spent by us in market or else where. One suggestion is if an Electric kettle is placed in the rooms it would be nice and gives some freedom to make tea coffee at any point of time.
