Route from Jammu ---- Jammu- Udhampur-Kud- Patnitop-Batote(NH-1A)---then ,need to take onto NH-1B route to Pul-Doda & then move on to Bhaderwah...if interested to visit Kishtwar also ,it is better recommended to plan atleast for 3 days trip orelse, the journey becomes very hectic(as per my experience)...
  Not much big hotels/ resorts at Bhaderwah ..Homestays are most preferred by travellers to Bhaderwah.... If enthusiatic, Do carry Ur tent & make ur stay by the river bed of inside the meadows spreaded across .................. Mostly , Maggi is available as food ..so better be prepared & carry food along .
***** NH1B --truely is well maintained route to take on the journey into the Doda region ,but preferred vehicles are SUV's as often roads get choked by falling rocks ....
