Flag House Resort (Shimla) (vpo)

Flag House Resort sits at 5,350 feet in the Shimla Hills near Junga - a quiet hill resort with dense covers of kail, deodar, pine, and cheel, just 16 km from Shimla. Pets are explicitly welcome here at no extra charge, with no breed restrictions, and the property's wooded surroundings make for genuinely good walking territory for dogs. It's a solid base if you want Shimla-region access without staying in the thick of the town.

For Dogs, the Location Does a Lot of the Work

The resort is set in the Shimla Hills at Junga, surrounded by forest - the kind of setting where a morning walk with your dog feels genuinely unhurried. There's a garden, terrace, sun terrace, picnic area, and outdoor furniture on the property, which means your dog has room to settle and move around without being cooped up in a corridor. The Jakhu Temple is about 20.7 km away and Kufri 28.6 km - both reachable for day trips if you want to explore with your pet. The surrounding forest cover of deodar and pine keeps the area cool even in summer months, which is a practical advantage when travelling with dogs.

What the Property Actually Offers

Flag House Resort is a full-service resort with a restaurant, fitness centre, BBQ facilities, room service, and free parking on site - useful when you're travelling with dogs and need to stagger meals or stay on property. The resort has an outdoor fireplace and terrace, which are good evening spots. Activities like hiking and cycling are available in the area, and the resort can help with walking tours. Breakfast in the room is an option (listed as an available service), which matters when you don't want to leave your dog alone to go eat. Check-in is from 14:00 and check-out until 12:00. Free private parking is available on site without prior reservation, which is practical for road trippers arriving by car with their pets.

Things to Keep in Mind

The leash rule applies whenever your pet is outside, so plan accordingly for walks on the property grounds. In-room pet access was not confirmed during our team's verification - call the resort directly before booking if this matters to your travel plan. The property is about 1.5 km from the centre of Junga, so it's not walkable to town conveniences, but the seclusion is precisely the point for most guests who choose this resort. Breed restrictions are not in place, which is a meaningful plus for owners of larger or less commonly accepted breeds. Reservations: +91-88944 50008 / 88944 60008.
