A look around
What's here
The first thing you notice is the quiet. From the property, you can see for miles across the green hills of Meghalaya, with a wide sky overhead. The home is a collection of small cottages set around a central garden, with paved paths connecting them. There are nine rooms in total, which are rented out individually. Each room has a king-sized bed and its own attached bathroom with a geyser for hot water. The rooms are simple and clean, with large windows looking out onto the gardens or the hills. The owner often helps guests figure out their plans for the next day. As one guest put it, "He helped me a lot with my next day itinerary, explaining every detail clearly, which turned out to be extremely helpful and made our trip smooth." Another guest said he "now feels like a friend." This personal guidance is a big part of a stay here. Simple, home-cooked meals are served, and the kitchen is known to be accommodating, even for guests who arrive late. The food is often described as delicious, with one guest noting, "the breakfasts were delicious." The home is pet-friendly and kid-friendly. There is plenty of parking on-site, along with Wi-Fi and power backup. Room heaters are available on request.

“The owner Pynkham and the receptionist Iban were very welcoming, helpful and sweet. Very hospitable. Professional but personal. Great service, good view of the valley, clean and comfortable room and a delicious solid breakfast in the morning. I would definitely stay there again. Highly recommended.”

Around the stay

Things to do nearby.

This home is a good starting point for exploring some of the most well-known spots in the region.

The Living Root Bridge is a short drive away. The owner can provide directions and tips for visiting this natural wonder.

Dawki town and the clear waters of the Umngot River are about 26 km from the property. It's a popular spot for boating.

Mawlynnong, often called Asia's cleanest village, is also accessible from here. It's a small, well-kept village worth a walk-through.

The owner can also suggest a few offbeat places that are not on the usual tourist maps.
