			==History==
			[[File:Verandah, Gurney House, Nainital, India.jpg\|left\|thumb\|140px\|Verandah of Gurney House]]
			It is located near [[Nainital Lake]], on Ayarpatta Hill and was built in 1881. Mary Jane Corbett, mother Jim Corbet moved here in 1881 after the death of her husband, Christopher William Corbett who was postmaster of Nainital. The cottage was constructed in 1880 with the dismantled material of their earlier house on Alma Hill (which was on the hill on which a famous [[Nainital#Founding_and_the_landslip_of_1880\|landslide occurred in 1880]]). And hence the name implies a house built of carted material from a dismantled house. Mary Jane lived here till she died on May 16, 1924. She was buried at the cemetery of the nearby [[St. John in the Wilderness (Nainital)\|St. John in the Wilderness]], where her husband was previously buried <ref name=hind>{{cite web\|url=https://www.hindustantimes.com/travel/the-british-lady-who-pioneered-tourism-in-nainital-130-years-ago/story-aTCH8STvqsvp5lZLXreEYI.html\|title=The British lady who pioneered tourism in Nainital 130 years ago
			\|quote= The house was constructed out of the material of the dismantled cottage of the old home, thus gaining its name Gurney, meaning a wheeled cot of stretcher, referring to the house built through the remains of the cottage wheeled over to the new location\|website=Hindustan Times \|date=Jun 17, 2018}}</ref>

			The house stayed with the family till 1947, when Miss Margaret Winifred Corbett, Jim Corbett's sister, sold the house to Sharda Prasad Varma, while they left for Kenya. Currently, the house is a private residence and serves as a private museum, with some Jim Corbett memorabilia. <ref>[https://nainitaltourism.org.in/gurney-house-nainital Gurney House] nainitaltourism.org.in.</ref><ref name=out>[https://www.outlookindia.com/outlooktraveller/explore/story/71560/an-old-world-charm An Old World Charm] Mallika Bhagat, Outlook Traveller, December 05, 2021.</ref>
