Not much idea as all have their own properties but under 10 Lakhs you can get a decent cottage.

Before taking such a purchase decision, you should always remember the following:
1) The Amount that you will invest in purchase, if you invest that in an Fixed Deposit; the Annual Interest that you will earn enables you to visit Mountains not once but maybe twice an year.
2) Moreover, in absence of owned property, you are free to explore new places for every visit (and repeat the places not before 15 years probably).
3) Lastly, you should always visualize and imagine thoroughly about maintenance and management of such a property for which you would probably need to incur a regular monthly expense for Guard or Housekeeper (with or without family). Apart from the monthly pestering expense, the Guard and his family might start getting too comfortable at your property and that could prove extremely dangerous for your investment.
So, in my opinion, like what is written on the truck's rear in punjabi: "vekhi ja, chhedi na"; if you were not born in the mountains, then you should just enjoy them and not hamper with them.
All my above advise stands invalid in two cases:
1) Like Kasang (Lansdowne), Mountain Trail (Mukteshwar) and West View (Ranikhet), you decide to develop a hotel and believe that you will be able to manage that business efficiently and profitably despite continuing to live in Delhi with your family.
OR
2) Like Manju Aunty at Mystic Mukteshwar Lodge or Pammi Aunty at Shringi Vatika (or Ruskin Bond), you decide to give up the urban life for good and relocate permanently to the mountains in your own house.
P.S: The latter case #2 comes into my mind a lot of times to which I think that I can still decide to live in the mountains in my old age at somebody else's cottage by paying him monthly rent (out of my earnings from my investments).
In fact, if I get lucky enough in my old age to be healthy and to be able to lead a life of a nomad-free-bird, I might want to have all my money digitized (which is available to me anywhere across the world) and would want to live my vaan-prastha and moksha stages of life freely around the world as permitted by my health

Thank you very much for your well thought out suggestions and what you say is very true. Really what I want is to settle at a place where I shall be able to live differently, away from all the hustle and bustle of routine life-but have to settle a few matters here-cannot leave now as my mother is here; by the way I am single and so not bothered by a family. I am not thinking of this as an investment. I am already old and I wonder whether I shall be able to do this. If not I shall take that also serenely as I very well know that in life one cannot have everything one want.

Booked a 200 square yard land piece in Rudrapur (Distance from Nainitaal 60 Kms & from Mukteshwar 100 Kms).
Project Name: Rudrapur Greens.
Builder: Mansha Buildcon
Rudrapur at present is a developing city which has huge potential for further development, It already has Multiplex, Mall, Good Eating Joints, Schools (DPS & many more) & Advanced Healthcare facilities.
Airport is also there and daily shatabadi which runs from delhi to kathgodam stops here.
Adjoining SIDCUL area have many companies set ups (including MNCs like HP, HCL, DABUR, TATA, TVS)
So one can have a city life here with hills nearby.
