What's here
The homestay offers a unique perspective of the hills, allowing you to see Darjeeling from a different angle. The rooms are cozy, with views of the tea gardens. One guest found the views so captivating that they "cancelled our return tickets just to extend our trip by a day and stay here."
Another guest praised the food, saying that after "indulging in too much junk food in Darjeeling, having simple, tasty, homestyle meals here was exactly what we needed."
The homestay consists of three cottages and a dormitory. The "Bakal" cottage offers arguably the best views.
