Original Map of the White Haven Estate
Formerly known as "East Home", the house belonged to Robert Shaw, the great European adventurer and trader, and the first european to enter the Central Asian city of Kashgarh. Robert Shaw and his brother-in-law, John Younghusband, planted the Tea gardens around 1857. The house and the gardens were later sold to Mr. Henry White (who renamed "East Home", "White Haven"), Major Montague and Miss Hugh Frazer. "White Haven" was bought by the family of the present owners, on 11th Feb, 1897, and is now a quality country home hotel.Dharamsala
