Tucked away in the lush green hills of Sahastradhara, The Woods - Sal Villa is a peaceful, pet-friendly escape where nature greets you at every turn. Just 45 minutes from Jolly Grant Airport, 45 minutes from Dehradun Railway Station, and about 14 km from Dehradun city centre, it’s close enough for easy access yet far enough to feel truly away from it all. Step outside the villa and you’re surrounded by forested slopes, winding trails, and the sound of flowing water. Days here are slow and refreshing, sip your morning tea in the garden while watching birds, play billiards or foosball with friends, unwind with a board game, or simply enjoy the quiet. As the sun sets, light up a bonfire or barbecue and let the cool night breeze set the mood. When you’re ready to explore, visit nearby attractions like Maldevta, Malsi Deer Park, Shikar Falls trek, Robber’s Cave, Tapkeshwar Temple, the Forest Research Institute, and Mindrolling Monastery. Wildlife lovers can head to Rajaji National Park for a jeep safari, all within an hour’s drive. Whether you’re travelling with family, friends, or your furry companion, The Woods blends the charm of wooden architecture with the calm of nature, making it the perfect base for both adventure and relaxation.
